Mikki - Something else: It was not uncommon for soldiers killed in action,died of wounds, or disease in "remote" locations were temporarily buried on-site and re-interred at major National Cemeteries as time permitted.

He could have died of Vicksburg wounds, but recall the Seige and fighting around Vicksburg was over on 7/4/1863. The raids and skirmishes were to continue in MS and area. The 8th Illinois was part of the 17th AC assigned to the District of Miss, through Aug. 1864. Pull the 8th in Dyer's Regimental History under Illinois in the Civil War and you may get some leads - if he not on attached duty away from the Reg.
