Re: Jamie Roberts: Question re Confederate graves

Hey Baudin, for the last few days my PC has refused to power up. For some reason it came on a little while ago. I don't know how long this will last so I am simply gonna post the information here.

Notice all the graves I can locate were of soldiers in Harrison's 3rd LA Cavalry. Booth's record has listings for all these men and I believe most applied for pensions. Don Louis DeVille seems to have been the one filling out many of these claims for these men as well as men from other units who lived in this area. His family still lives just across the HWY 167 from the cemetery. Lt. Eli Clark was a Justice of the Peace. He performed the marriage of my great-grandparents in 1888.

I live about 1 1/2 miles north of Addison Johnson/Jeansonne cemetery. If I can be of further help let me know. Here is the list of CSA vets in that cemetery that I am aware of...

Clark, Eli
1st Lt. Harrison's 3rd Louisiana Cavalry Company K "Prairie Rangers"

Deville, Don Louis
Pvt. Company K Captain Todd's Independent Louisiana Cavalry "Prairie Rangers"

Deville, Louis
Pvt. Company K Captain Todd's Independent Louisiana Cavalry "Prairie Rangers"

Hebert, P. Flournoy
Pvt. Company K Captain Todd's Independent Louisiana Cavalry "Prairie Rangers"

Johnson, Neville
Pvt. Company K Captain Todd's Independent Louisiana Cavalry "Prairie Rangers"

Johnson, Paul H.
Pvt. Company K Harrisons's 3rd Louisiana Cavalry "Prairie Rangers"
