Captain Charles B. Tilden, C.S.A.

[Union_Buff]

Hello all

I am doing more research on my Confederate ancestors and I am trying to uncover information regarding my 5 x Great Granduncle Captain Charles B. Tilden's service with the 3rd Field Battery, Missouri Light Artillery. All I managed to find is that Charles and his battery took part in the Battle of Helena in Helena, AK on July 4 1863 as part of the Fourth Brigade, Price's Division, District of Arkansas.

Charles' obituary in the St. Louis Globe-Democrat (May 16 1901) is linked here: https://www.newspapers.com/clip/38499697/capt-charles-b-tilden-1835-1901/
