Co D, 15 Regt. Tx. Cav. CSA.
From his obituary, published in the May 6, 1909 edition of the Wills Point Chronicle:
A.D. Huff, familiarly known as "Uncle Arter", was found dead on his place near Cedar Grove early Friday morning by a neighbor who was hunting some calves. He had gone out to the lot immediately after breakfast and it is presumed was taken with heart failure, dying instantly. The remains were buried at the Cedar Grove cemetery Sunday afternoon at 1 o'clock, Rev. Luster conducting the funeral. A number of Wills Point attended the service. Uncle Arter was an old landmark of Van Zandt, being among the earliest settlers of the county. He was 83 years old and had been a member of the Baptist church for 62 years. He served in the Confederate Army during the civil war and was a true son of the old South. Being of a kindly and neighborly disposition, Mr. Huff was liked by all who knew him. Several children survive the deceased, but only two, Mrs. W. L. Mathis and Mrs. T. R. Ellison reside in this county and were present at the burial. The Chronicle regrets the passing of this old-timer but he has gone to reap the rewards of a long and well spent life.
He married Margaret A Williams on September 14, 1866 in Van Zandt County, Texas.
