Ron Black: May I please prevail upon your expertise again? A friend's Great-great-grandfather is listed in Freeman's Company, Alabama GDS (not sure what GDS stands for). All I could find is that it was a Captain Freeman and that they were Prison Guards. So I guess I have 3 questions:

1) What is Captain Freeman's given name?
2) What prison(s) did his Company guard?
3) What does GDS stand for?

Thanks so much!
