A C TaylorRank Unknown
I found a grave stone in the Bradford TN (old Baker) cemetery. AC Taylor's stone doesn't have a date of Birth nor death, yet his wife's stone is nearby. On the stone it reads: Co. 1, 3rd TN CSA CAV. Please confirm and post in the right place. Can you tell me when and how he died. I have his birth as abt. 1840 in TN (probably Bradford area). I suspect his real name was Andrus, married to Clara / Clarissa.
