 Nave's Battalion seems to have been organized at the tail end of the war. General Robert E Lee had surrendered on 9 April 1865 at Appomattox Court House. Brigadier General M Jeff Thompson, dubbed "Missouri's Swamp Fox of the Confederacy", was given the command of the Army of the Northern Sub-District of Arkansas in March of 1865, and Thomas R King and his future brother-in-law, Lawson Edward Green Richardson, enlisted in Company E, Nave's Battalion of the Arkansas Cavalry, CSA.
  Thomas King was only 5'7-1/4" tall, with blue eyes, a fair complexion, and sandy hair. He stated that he was born in Missouri, although his daughters all believed that he was born in England.
  MILITARY: I don't know that they participated in any battles, but there were probably minor skirmishes as the war was drawing to a close. Thompson surrendered his army on 11 May 1865 to Major General G M Dodge, Department of the Missouri, USA, and the men were paroled at Jacksonport, Arkansas on 5 June 1865 and ordered home. I have not been able to determine if Thomas had any prior service to this, but there was a Thomas R King who was a wagoner with Co G, Brook's Regiment, 34th AR Infantry.
