War time deaths (1862)....Who are Thomas and G. W. Quinton?

I have found a record of a THOMAS QUINTON who died in Arkansas in May 1862. He was found on a Muster Roll of Companies H & I of the Fourth Arkansas Regiment, Polk County, Arkansas. Is he the son of JAMES QUINTON (c.1805 - c.1860)? If so then he is the brother to my great grandmother, MARTHA JANE QUINTON who married GEORGE M. WINTON. Would like more information on this Quinton family as I only found proof of Martha Jane being a Quinton two weeks ago.

There was also a record on the same muster roll of a G. W. QUINTON who was a 1st Corporal, died May 1862. In which Quinton family does he belong?

Both of these entries were recorded in the "Book of Lists" (page 3)from Newsletters of the Polk County Genealogical Society 1986-1995. The heading read:
MUSTER ROLL of Companies H & I (Polk County) of the Fourth Arkansas Regiment from its organization to December 1863. From Harold Coogan's article in Mena Star Sunday, Oct. 11, 1987. Roll taken from Sources: Gammage, W.L. "The Camp, The Bivouac, and the Battlefield". Selma Alabama, 1864 (Reprinted, Arkansas Southern Press, Little Rock, 1958.
