I agree, but as things stand I just don't think it's in the cards. I can appreciate their sentiments, but like you I think that continuing to expand our knowledge of Arkansas Civil War soldiers would be a much more fitting memorial to Ed.

Regarding the Greensboro parole list, I also got a copy of the list for the 1st Consolidated Arkansas Mounted Rifles. I'll get that one transcribed into computerese when I get time, and post it also. Also have a casualty list from the train wreck at Flat Creek Bridge, Tennessee, on May 25, 1865, where many of those boys who had survived four years of war were killed or maimed while on their way home. A real tragedy.
