    1. Re: [ADAMS-L] George Adams
    2. Please thank your father for looking up George Adams. I hope the information you posted will helpsomeone else on the list. Our George W. Adams was born 16 Jul 1843 in Indiana, Pa (don't know town) d. 06 Dec 1861 we didn't know where. Going on the premise he died in the Civil War, I hoped to find out where he might have enlisted so sent an enquiry to the PACEN list, was sent the following which they found on ancestry. George Adams , Enlistment Date: 12 October 1861 Distinguished Service: DISTINGUISHED SERVICE Side Served: Union State Served: Pennsylvania Unit Numbers: 2345 2345 Service Record: Enlisted as a Private on 12 October 1861 Enlisted in Company B, 78th Infantry Regiment Pennsylvania on 12 October 1861. Died Company B, 78th Infantry Regiment Pennsylvania on 08 December 1861 in Camp Negley, KY Found mention that many died in that time frame due to diseases because of the conditions of the camp. Am sending for his records from NARA. Thank you again. Laurie Beth Roman
