    2. Kirby Thanks for the reply, the reason I was asking is my family ended up in the household with Confederate Major William C Grimsley as orphans in the 1870 Greene Co census. William Grimsley was the first Sheriff of Bollinger Co and a neighbor to my 3x great Henry Cato. Henry was the father of William, Wilson and Nathan who all died at Alton. Nathan was my great great and because of the three Nathans it took me 10 yrs through the process of elimination to prove it was my Nathan who died at Alton. I always suspected it was my Nathan since the kids were listed as orphans in the Household with William Grimsley. I found William Grimsley and Wife Matilda buried at Liberty Cemetery just East of Boydsville Ar. Boydsville is located on the same road from Rector and is Just West of Rector on Hwy 90. By the way there were 6 0r 7 Williams in the war and 3 Henry's and 3 Nathans. This makes it tough to decipher this family with all the records destroyed. Adruain
