Hi Byers I've been on this list for a long time but have not seen any BYERS from SC. Family lore is that 11 or 13 brothers came to America from Scotland. I don't know when or where. Has anyone heard this story? The person I am searching for is Green Don Byers. Based on the 1860 Greene Co., AR census he was born in SC about 1837. G. D. had one son born after G. D. died. G. D. was a Capt. in the CSA army. He was shot on 4 July 1863 and died from the wounds 18 July 1863 in a Union hospital in Memphis. We can't find where he was buried. We don't know where in SC he was born (although we have heard York Co mentioned) or who his parents were. I have tried York Co and SC in general with no feed back. I suspect his mother's name was Green. I went to the Green list for help. Again, no feed back. So I am trying this list again. Any help will be appreciated. Phil Di Matteo
