Re: burial site for Henry WALBRIDGE

After you check Little Rock, if you find him, that is great. If not, check
Memphis too as I am under the impression that a lot of the remains
were sent on to Memphis. Helena is on the river and by transporting on
boats it was easier.
I do remember there was a story about some group was transporting
the coffins and had written on them who was who with chalk.
There was a big rain, and no one knew who was who anymore.
Truthfully, if it had happened in this day and time, it would have
been a big scandal the way things were done at that time.
If you find him, let us know.
Wishing you the best in your search.
