This is probably him:

Shows he is buried at Oak Hill Cemetery. Since there is not a tombstone specifically for
him, he is more than likely marked with one of the Unknown Soldier tombstones.
The record books they copied sometimes differ widely with the tombstone inscriptions and
the National Parks Service Civil War Sailor & Soldier System.
For example, the name may have been written as Jas. but read as Jos.
