Hello, All, I have tried almost everything, and cannot find a date of death for my 3rd grt grndfather, Eli MELVIN. He was born in OH, around 1820. He had requested a pension from the gov't for Civil War service, but didn't show up at his 'hearing', which was in 1892. I believe he had probably died. He had lived in the Bushnell, IL area. I do know that he is buried in an unmarked grave in Mound Cemetery. Does anyone know anything about this man? Thanks for any help that you can give. Judy Goodwin Winter Park, FL
