Born in Germany, and proudly served his new country in Company H, Captain Hart's Horse Artillery, Confederate States of America.
It appears that the following generations, including Wolf's son, Hans Rudolph Schoenberg, dropped the "von" from their surname and became simply "Schoenberg", and several of them are also buried here at GBC.

Billy Mansfield Phillips passed away Saturday March 8, 2025 at his home in Crystal Springs. He was 86 years old. He was born at his home in Copiah County on September 29, 1938 to Belton and Lois Phillips. He met the love of his life and they married when he was 19 years old. They spent over 50 years together. He enjoyed coaching kids and youth league baseball and traveling with his family in their motor home. One of his favorite places to visit was the Rocky Mountains. He worked for CN Railroad as a track maintenance supervisor for 45 years before finally retiring. Billy was a longtime resident of Crystal Springs. He would often eat lunch at one of the local restaurants, Brandos. Everyone knew his name and would oftentimes have his drink already at the table before he even sat down. Billy was a man that did not like to sit still. You would always see him outdoors either cutting grass or digging something with his bulldozer. He never hesitated to lend a helping hand. His presence will be greatly missed by family and friends.
Billy is preceded in death by his parents Belton and Lois Phillips, wife Becky Phillips, son Chris Phillips, and brother in-law Larry Toppin. He is survived by two daughters: Cindy White (Perry) and Marlo Hollis (Scott) of Crystal Springs; One daughter in-law Cathy Phillips of Crystal Springs; sister Martha Lynn Toppin of New Mexico; four grandchildren: Daniel White (Brandy), Casey Phillips, Cayla Taylor (Nathan), and Courtney Welch (Dylan); 7 great grandchildren with one more on the way, niece & nephews, numerous cousins, and his sweet cat Gracie.

Far-removed relationship to Dennis Morgan Hydrick: 1st cousin 5 times removed's wife's cousin's son-in-law
Ira was my grandfather. His father died five months before the son was born. His mother was Elizabeth Ann Catherine Mitchell and he had two brothers: Francis (who died young) and Clinton Levert.
~~~Find A Grave contributor, Researcher63
~~~~~~~~~~~~
He was the son of Ira Ellis McMillion (I) (b. 1799) who died in Blount Co., AL in Sept. 1853. He had two brothers: Francis (1850-1853) and Clinton Levert (1842-1920). He had 7 confirmed children. There is no proof he had a child named Francis Oliver.
In some newspaper articles, he is referred to as "Col.", but that was most likely in connection with the social organizations with which he was associated. I have found no evidence, nor are there any family stories, that suggest he ever served in the military.
Obituary
