I am researching three soldiers who enlisted in the 26th Arkansas Infantry Regiment during the Civil War.They are:

Dile G. AdamsCo. EPvt/Pvt
Joined 26th Arkansas at Little Rock 11 Jun 1862 "to fill out time of 35 days."Discharged 1
Aug 1862 at Camp Rust, Pulaski County, Arkansas.Previously served in Company B, 14th
(Mitchell's) Arkansas Infantry Regiment.

Pleasant Newton AdamsCo. FPvt/Pvt
Enlisted 4 Jun 1862 at Tulip, Dallas County, Arkansas.Transferred to 9th Texas Field
Artillery Battery before 12 Aug 1862.Born in 5 May 1834 in Coweta County, Georgia.Age

Texas.

I have no genealogical connection to these men but am writing a book on their regiment.Any help in learning their dates/places of birth, death, and burial location would be greatly appreciated.
