Thanks for the reply, the reason I was asking is my
family ended up in the household with Confederate Major
William C Grimsley as orphans in the 1870 Greene Co
census. William Grimsley was the first Sheriff of Bollinger
Co and a neighbor to my 3x great Henry Cato. Henry was
the father of William, Wilson and Nathan who all died
at Alton. Nathan was my great great and because of the
three Nathans it took me 10 yrs through the process of
elimination to prove it was my Nathan who died at Alton.
I always suspected it was my Nathan since the kids were listed
as orphans in the Household with William Grimsley. I found
William Grimsley and Wife Matilda buried at Liberty Cemetery
just East of Boydsville Ar. Boydsville is located on the same road
from Rector and is Just West of Rector on Hwy 90.
By the way there were 6 0r 7 Williams in the war and 3
Henry's and 3 Nathans. This makes it tough to decipher this
family with all the records destroyed.
