I am searching for more information, maybe some actual details, on John E. Sullivan who died in the Battle of Mechanicsville. I am trying to find out if this John E. is my gggf. I got his records from the Nat'l Archives and would like to know if there are other places that may have information on him in more detail. Would Tennessee have a more detailed place for information, like where he enlisted, etc.? Thank you. unicorn4176@comcast.net

Unicorn We may be able to help if we know a bit more about John E Sullivan. There were at least 900 John Sullivan's who fought in the North and 182 who fought for the South. Since you mention Tennessee and that you have his records and if he fought for TN there were 3 North and 25 South John Sullivan's. So the question is Union or Confederate, age, birth state, survived the war, pension applied for, which TN regiment? etc. The more we know the better a chance to help.
