Thayer's Note:

a As with other Confederate officers, Cullum's Register omits his war record: the deficiency is made good, along with much better information on his service to the Republic of Texas, by the online biographical sketch at Find-a‑Grave.

Images with borders lead to more information.
The thicker the border, the more information. (Details here.)
