Willis Carrol Nations Willis Carrol Nations - Sergeant

Willis Carrol Nations, 3rd great grand father to Roger Collins, served as Sargent and Wagon Master for the 6th Arkansas Infantry. He joined 26 July 1861 when he was 47 years old which is very amazing because campaigning was tough on much younger men. From the records it seems he transferred from the Arkansas State Militia to Confederate service in the 6th Infantry. He received a discharge from the CSA on 27 November 1861. About a year later he joined the 6th Texas Infantry when his brother and nephew arrived with the 6th Texas at Arkansas Post. More on that in his history with the 6th Texas.
