Karen, I agree about Steven and how helpful he has been. If anyone missed it, I have put it on the website on the military page. I have been doing some research on CO G 7th Regiment Texas Mounted Volunteers but I can't find anything!! I do know that Steven died in a "Peach Orchard and I have found the location in DeSoto Parish in LA, unfortunately BFI is digging a landfill right where my ggggrandfather (and others) was supposed to be buried and there is nothing I can do about it. It is so frustrating. I just wish I could get them to move their bones, but I know if I start a ruckus then they will shut me out altogether. I don't have proof only oral history passed down thru the years that he was buried there. I have tried to find out the pattern that the regiment moved during the War so I can pin point it thru history and documentation that he was in fact there, but I can't find anything. I know he was there but I can't prove it basically. Steven Barrett died of typhoid fever DEC 8, 1863, I wish I could find a hospital record in an attic or just anything that proved he was there and the man in Mansfield said we could make them stop digging. We have looked for other descendants who had men die and buried in the same "peach orchard" but no one else can "prove" it either. I would love to have him moved to his family cemetery (not that I would ever be able to identify him). At least I can get him a marker for Burroughs and put it next to his parents and family. Hugs, Janet
