Can anyone find this man? Census, birth, death, burial, anything?
I have his carded records, but can't find him anywhere else. No record that he died while serving in the CS Army as a Hospital Steward. His friend during the war was another Hospital Steward named Lucious P Hudson. I've found everything about him - birth, carded records, pension, census, burial, etc. but can find nothing of Jonathan Eames. Any help appreciated.
Jonathan Eames Enlisted July 11, 1861 as Private Company A, 16th Alabama at Cherokee, AL by Colonel William B Wood for 3 years. Listed on Company Muster Roll for July 11 – August 31, 1861 dated October 22, 1861 as Jotham [sic] Eames Pvt.

Appears on a Register of Payments on Descriptive Lists for period of service March 1, 1862 - October 31, 1862, paid $160 on November 17, 1862. Appears on a Return of Hospital Stewards serving in Hospitals of General Bragg’s Army during the month of July 1863; post Ringgold; name of Hospital Foard.
