RE: PARSONS, Truman Nathaniel, b. 29 May 1843, Chatham Township (Easthampton), Middlesex Co., CT, d. 13 Nov 1942. I am looking for any information on my great great grandfather. I understand that there is a lengthy obituary in the New York Times. He served in most of the major battles of the Civil War and was president of the GAR in CT for many years. Thanks.
