Anne,

I too have wondered about the connectivity among some of these Garland Snead's. So far I have not been able to sort them out. Another possibility: Ref: "Confederate Soldiers -- Alabama, 48th Infantry"; Call # A 929.3761; Microcopy #311; Roll # 436; Gadsden, AL Library. The microfilm contains two entries for a G. H. Snead/Sneed in the 48th AL Infantry. Many men from Cherokee County, including Morgan and James E. Snead, served in this unit. The following summarizes the entries for G. H. Snead/Sneed.

"(1)Record Date - None Given: G. H. Snead, Co. H, 48th Regt., Al. Name appears on a register of officers and soldiers of the Army of the Confederate States who were killed in battle, or who died of wounds or disease. Where born ___. Deceased on Dec 19, 1862 at Richmond, Va. Confed. Arch., Chap. 10, File No. 2, page 244."

"(2)Record Date - None Given: G. H. Sneed, Co. H, 48th Regt., Al. Name appears on a register of officers and soldiers of the Army of the Confederate States who were killed in battle, or who died of wounds or disease. Where born ___. Deceased on Dec 20, 1862 at Richmond, Va. from fever. Confed. Arch., Chap. 10, File No. 2, page 226."

I think it possible that this G. H. Snead was the Garland Snead, son of Dianah (Beasley) and Absalom Snead, from the 1850 and 1860 Cherokee Co., AL US Census. I have found no trace of this Garland after the 1860 Census. This G. H. Snead's death in 1862 could explain why we cannot find this Garland after 1860.
