Mike Glen Thompson,
.
Thank you for suggesting Vicki Betts' article. Great.
.
I have been trying to locate a Coffield (see below). I see Capt. H.B. Coffield, Pvt C.H. Coffield, Pvt S.T. Coffield were in Border's-Anderson's Cavalry, Companies D and K. What is the skinny on them?
.
On my web page I have posted the handwritten pages from THE BOURALND PAPERS that shows the prisoners taken in April 1865 in Wise Co TX. I found one James Cofflt in Missouri. ... a stab ... that is probably wrong.

COFFIELD, James W. Coflt, Cofflt, Coffield, b-1834 MO; m-Sarah A.R.; 1860 Henry Co MO p890; MO 10th Cav, Co D (arrested 1865 Wise Co TX)

By the way make sure that Vicki Betts' knows that his name was not Cspt. W.B. Coffield.
