My great great Grandfather from Markgröningen, Wuerttemberg, Germany served in the 72nd Ohio Regiment. I've checked their battles and can't figure out how he went from Ohio to finding my great great grandmother in Cooper County, Missouri after the war. But they did find each other. Does anyone have any insight into things like this?

If you figure that out, I love to hear about it. But perhaps he met her on his march through Arkansas and Missouri from September 17 to November 16, 1864. You have to look at more than just where the battles were fought. You have to track the routes they took. They have to stop once in a while to sleep and stock up. Do you have his service records? Did he ever go AWOL? Have you tracked her and her family's movements during the Civil War? Maybe they were part of a supply crew, or her father/brother were in a corps that fought with the 72nd. Any of his fellow soldier's moved there? Land grants after the war? Was her town along one of the westward trails? So many possibilities.
