Although he is listed as having been in "Simington''s Co. 1st Arkansas Infantry, I do not find a file for him in the Compiled Service Records, nor in the 31st Arkansas

D. Holly, Private, Company E, Shaver's Regiment, Arkansas Infantry,* enlisted July 186_ at Pocahuntus, Ark. by Capt. Beshoar during the war, presence on the July 8, 1862 muster roll is "not stated," no further records

* This regiment was designated at various times as Shaver's Regiment Arkansas Infantry, 31st Regiment Arkansas Infantry, and 38th Regiment Arkansas Infantry

Note: The next surviving company bi-monthly muster roll is for the period March & April, 1863. As no further records post July, 1862 exist for him, it is apparent he was dropped from the rolls sometime between these dates, no reason apparent
