Bill, My gg-grandfather, William N. Lynch, from Drew Co., joined the Confederate Army at Laconia, which at that time (1861) was in Desha County, or so his service record states.....Until I found this article that also has a map included, I had wondered where it was. Apparently a lot of men from Drew and Desha Co. enlisted at Laconia. Jann ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
