    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Allen, Miller, Daniel Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/nhB.2ACI/1298 Message Board Post: I am looking for information regarding the gravesite of N. J. Allen of the 8th Texas Cavalry who was killed at Mossy Creek Station in December 1863. The following 1897 article may hold some clues to the graves location: -------------- Confederate Veteran - April 1897 Volume 5, Number 4, Page 170 D. R. Miller, Morristown, Tenn.: "Does any member of the Eighth Texas Rangers know relatives or friends of N. L. Allen, who was killed about two miles east of Mossy Creek, Tenn., in December, 1863? He was buried on the farm of Mrs. E. J. Daniel, and the grave cared for till now. The W. B. Tate Camp will perhaps remove the remains to Jarnigan burying ground unless we can hear from some of his friends." ------------ Any help in locating and obtaining photos of this gravesite would be most appreciated.
