    1. [ALAUTAUG-L] Confederate Grave
    2. Brenda Felder
    3. I live in southern La. and one day while out exploring an adjoining parish to search out cemeteries a friend an I visited a rather large cemetery out in the country but almost in the front yard of an old farm house. My friend located the graves of some ancestors and as we left we noticed the grave of a Confederate soldier. The story we heard was that he was training at Camp Moore and died there. Camp Moore is in Tangipahoa parish,La. and a lot of rebels trained there at the beginning of the Civil War. I guess he died a natural death but really don't know that. I've often wondered since that day if his family ever knew what became of him. I decided to share the info in hopes it might help open or even close a door for someone searching this family. Hope it helps! OLIVER P. PARRISH 4 Oct. 1828-------8 Nov. 1862 Cap. Co. F 31st. Alabama Regiment Brenda Gray Felder
