Hello All,
Just found this site and I have been following the conversation. I thought I would chime in on the topic of the origins of the soldiers. My family lived in Hickman Cty, KY. My gggrandfather served in the 3rd KY Cavalry and in a TN Infantry. But, his brothers, J. W. Walker & Jesse J. Walker, as well as some nephews served in the 12th Kentucky Cavalry.
