Saralyn : I don't have any info on your Alex B Cameron. You might go to
the Tarrant County or Jackson County Genweb site and check the civil
war pention application records,You might find that his wife made
application for a civil war pention. The Texas County Genweb sites
sometimes have a great deal of information on them. You also might check
the Cass County genweb site If you
have not looked at these sites all of the texas genweb sites can be
reached by going to the usgenweb or directly to the txgenweb and picking
your county.You might also check the lonestar junction site to see if a
related Cameron is there I think that there may be several listed there
in the people and places section
You might go to world family tree and do a family finder search for your
cameron. .I am not sure if this will help or hinder your search. Good
Hunting.

I am looking for information on B. ALEX CAMERON married MARTHA G HUFFINESS.
He died during the Civil War. We figure he lived in or around Atlanta, Cass
Co., TX since his children MOLLIE and WILLIAM FREDERICK were both born
there. Do you have any info?
Have a good day,
