NC Queries Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NC/Johnston/12174 Surname: Wall ------------------------- Never heard of Houtershedt.I have it as Perry.I got it from my cousin Bill Hocutt. I have the records from the National Archives for Rufus D. Wall.He was my great grandma's brother.I've been wondering just who else in the family was in the army,as I found more Wall men on an on-line database,and they were in the 24th out of Johnston County.Figured they would be Rufus Wall's brothers or cousins,but a lack of middle name info makes it hard to be sure,unless you already knew. I forwarded my Wall info to your address minutes ago. Have heard the Wall family is Scottish but don't know it for a fact. I'm very glad to see others in my Wall family popping up.One of my big interests is finding all my Confederate soldier kinfolks,and maybe we can get them all I.D.'d for sure. I do believe that the 24th N.C. Inf. Reg. Co. C. is a hotbed of family relations for a lot of us with Johnston County ancestry.
