Hi, My father's cousin said that her father, Virgil Williams had said that one of his brothers or Uncles was in the raiders. He was young maybe 16 or 17, and I don't know which one it was. They lived in Fristo, Benton,MO. and had 7 sons, half went and fought in the south and the others for the north and the one brother to the raiders. My father remembers him as being very quite man. But looking at the ages of the brothers, he probably didn't know the one in the raiders. Since the Civil war started in 1861 to 1865 the only sons were 26, 24, 21, 19 and 17. The 17 yr. old would have been the one in the Raiders, but I'm not sure. Thir names were John, Virgil, George, W. Thomas, Greenbury, the 17 year old brother. Their surname was Williams. I don't know if this helps. Let me know if you have anymore info. Bernece Williams Alexander
