Molly, I hope you don't mind me asking, but please check the Oddfellows Cemetery in Aberdeen for Simon Jeremiah Boyd, my great-grand-father. He lived near Hamilton, as best as I can figure, and was listed in Green Thompson ROBERDS' family Bible with a death date of 02 Feb 1862. One source said he was buried in the Confederate Cemetery at Okolona, but a check did not shown him there. Thanks so much for helping. Jim Allen in Water Valley.

Jim The only BOYD's listed are: Mrs. W.J. BOYD Lot 26-4 6-23-1903 W.J BOYD baby Lot 26-3 7-6-1903 Will J BOYD Lot 35-2 4-19-1915 You mentioned a Confederate Cemetery in Okolona. I would love to check a name there in hopes of finding my Confederate soldier, Johnson SHIVERS, who died in a regimental hospital in 1862. How can I obtain these records ?
