Arkansas 3rd Calvary Regiment?

[grcone]

My G-grandfather servered in either the 3rd Arkansas Calvary Regiment (CSA), or possibly the Arkansas 3rd Cherokee Calvary Regiment. Are there any muster lists available.
He was from Franklin County, Arkansas. He and extended family moved from Western Tennessee sometime after the 1860 census. They were from McNairy Co. TN
He had 3 brothers that served in other Arkansas infantry units.
His name was Nixon C. Cone.
Any info out there on muster list or names of Cone all CSA, Arkansas. Believe one of the brothers Meril Cone was killed at the battle of Memphis.
Thanks for any assistence.
Gene R. Cone

I searched Fold3 records for all Arkansas regiments and could not find a Cone by name of Nixon nor Meril/Merril. There were a lot of soldiers with the name of Cone but did not see one with even the initials of those two.

I would suggest we check alternate spellings for Cone, such as Cohn, Cohen, Conn, Kone, Kohn, Konn, etc.

I thought of alternate spelling of his surname. But I did get a lot of hits on that spelling. So many that it is possible that I overlooked one named M. Cone. {err. I meant N. Cone}
