buried in the Jeremiah Burnett family graveyard near where their house
stood. This graveyard is practically on the Jackson Parish line, between

Hi, this is my first time on this list and I hope there is someone out there who can help.
On y GGGrandfather's obituary it claims he fought in the Mexican Wars(1845-47) as a Lieutenant in the Louisiana Rangers officered by Gen Zachariah Taylor and Captain Martin Scott.
Is there anybody who knows of the Louisiana Rangers and their story as it might give me a clue to my ancestor's time in America during those years?
By the way my ancestors name was Edward Brown SPENCE. He went on to Marry a Margaret ANDREWS in Virginia, before returning to the UK
to carry on the family business
