Hello, Phyllis ... Some time ago I posted information to this list about the Illinois monument in Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park. Since the park is close to my home, and a very pleasant place to walk, I have visited the monument many times, and taken digital pictures of it from every angle ... including images of the many inscriptions thereon. As you may know, the 86th Infantry is cited on one of the panels on the monument: 86TH ILL. VOLUNTEER. INFTY. COMMANDED BY LT. COL. A. L. FAHNESTOCK. I'll repeat my offer (from the prior post) to provide you with any JPEG images you might want from my collection. Just let me know. Carl Jay Egetter Marietta, GA Grandson of Stillman Augustus Pease, Recruit in the 83rd Infantry, Co.

We haven't been able to locate any photos of our ancestor, Samuel S. Bitner who was enrolled in August 8,1862, in Lancaster, Ill. and mustered in August 27, 1862 by Captain Ewing at Peoria, Illinois. He was killed at Kennesaw Mountain. I already have the book Kennesaw Mountain but was hoping someone else may have some photos. There were also some brothers-in-law in the same group by the name of Wolgomat. Thanks for any information. Phyllis Bitner
