My biggest question is who was Clardy? When was the battalion formed? Was it part of another regiment? I have a few relatives who appear to have been captured by the Union from Clardy's Battalion. One seems to have died while a prisoner in Alton Il., another was paroled after the war (1865) in Ark.
Family names are: Carter, Chilton, Chitwood, Coleman and Scaggs, all are from counties in SE MO.
Thanks
