Hi, well I have tracked down my John Taggart ( Teggert ) down, he died Oct. 10, 1864 in Atlanta Georgia in a Army Hospital., have this info from his pension records. His parents drew a pension off him. John joined the war in Feb. 10, 1864, funny how he die 8 months to the day he joined, now nothing in his Civil War Pension records gives a place of burial. He joined in Columbus Ohio. He was born Nov. 30 1843 in Ontario County Canada, now he was living with his parents Robert & Elizabeth ( Wiley ) Taggart in Wawanosh Twp. Huron county, Ontario Canada when he left and joined the War. Not sure if he had family in Ohio or just went there to join up, anyone have any ideas on where to search for Burial records. So many of you out there have helped me so much but nothing helped but found him in the Civil War records whick had him born and Canada and mothers name was Elizabeth, the day the pension file came I was scared to open it in fear he was the wrong John, but the 1st page had him listed, I was so happy.

I would think that he is buried in the Marietta National Cemetery in Marietta, GA www.cem.va.gov which is just North of Atlanta, but he could be in one of the smaller cemeteries in Atlanta. Oakland cemetery is where the Confederates are buried, but you may want to look in the Green lawn cemetery, or Grant Park (I'm not sure if there is a cemetery here, but they have the Cyclorama of the Civil War there).. You may also want to go to rootsweb or Genweb and search for cemeteries in Dekalb and Fulton co. GA.... then search surrounding counties. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, March 21, 2006 1:26 PM Subject: [CIVIL-WAR] ATLANTA GEORGIA > Hi, well I have tracked down my John Taggart ( Teggert ) down, he died Oct. > 10, 1864 in Atlanta Georgia in a Army Hospital., have this info from his > pension records.
