Stephen Fales Bunker D-449. Our records show that he was born 12 Dec 1840. He joined the service 23 May 1861 and was wounded at the Battle of Bull Run 12 July 1861 and discharged due to his disability on 15 Dec 1861. Not to be deterred, he reenlisted in the 2nd MN Cavalry 15 Feb 1865 and served until he was mustered out 2 Dec 1865. However, that was not enough for our Stephen. He had previously served in the Sioux Indian Wars in Minnesota. He was the son of John Gennings Bunker and Sylvira Rollins. He was descended from James Bunker of Dover, NH. He married Adelaide Victoria Martin 26 May 1866 and had 7 children, 6 boys named Lewis, Frank, Frederick, Leroy and Delbert and one girl named Sylvira. Son, Frank served in the Spanish American War. Stephen's biography was published in the Bunker Banner August 1994, p. 807 and he is recorded in the 1975 Bunker Genealogy p. 202.
