Well, I found his final resting place, Cabell Algernon S. Major, Confederate Staff Sacred Heart Cemetery, Franklin County, Arkansas UNKNOWN
any idea which company Gene was referring to in this post? Is this Bunch's Company? Wonder how that roll made it to California?

That's the bunch - Many years ago I saw the recruiting muster roll for them. (It's out here in California of all things) They were recruited based on joining the 3rd and their roll reflects that. A little more (Very Very pre-internet) research showed that they arrived at Ft. Smith too late to join the 3rd and were placed in another regiment. I never thought too much about it again - or where they ended up - until this thread showed up.
Thanks - Gene
