Infantry during the American Civil War. He enlisted as a Private at Marysville, California on 19/19/1864; and was mustered out at Presideo, California on 4/26/1866. Anything on his birth, life, family, descendants, death and especially where he is buried would be appreciated. I am trying to compile a story on him for the Veterans Memorial Website, www.acwv.info. Any help will be greatly appreciated. James gray at jamesmgray@bigpond.com. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
