Looking to locate JOHN J. DYE who may have served from Phillips Co, Ark. I have no record of him serving and not much else on this person. He was born about 1839 Mo. Was in Phillips Co, Ark census with a wife Nancy J. {Shackleford} and daughter Melissa.
He was not on the 1870 census record but was on the 1880 Phillips Co, Ark census with a daughter Orphia Dye and no wife.
In 1860 census he had $44,400.00 real estate and $40,000.00 personal.
This person died in Chickasaw County, Mississippi and is buried in Boone Chapel Cemetery. Would like to obtain a marker for his grave if I can prove he served in the war.
