Col. Albert Rust
Original Col. of the 3rd Ark.
Promoted to Brigadier General, Confederate States Army.
Mount Holly Cemetery, Little Rock, Arkansas


Later promoted to Brigadier General
(Note from Ronnie:  This is not Rust's grave marker.  It is what is called a "Cenotaph," which is a memorial marker.  Albert Rust is buried in Mount Holly Cemetery in Little Rock, of that there is no doubt.  The problem is, his actual grave site is lost.  Nobody remembers where it was located and the headstone went missing years before anyone realized he was a celebrity of some kind.  As a result they erected this cenotaph stone near the cemetery entrance to honor him and indicate that he is buried somewhere within the grounds of the cemetery.)
