    3. Hello: After posting the other day I have had many inquires to specifics of the contents of this volume. I thought responding here rather than to each individual would save some time. Remember to watch for the book being added to my webpage along with a SURNAME index for this volume at http://www.hartcom.net/~scv935/grey Here are more specifics of what this book contains: Softbound book, perfectly bound, over 413 pages All identifiable GRAVES of the Confederate Soldiers and their wives buried in Jackson Co. These total 1,600 Graves. Along with each burial record is recorded his Military information such as unit, county served from, rank, and brief description of his service: Genealogical information on each soldier such as the 1850/1860 census records of his family or his Father's family.
