C from Boone County. I dont know that what you have is a typo or not.... but one good question to try and find out is if John Baldwin inlisted twice.. Are you sure he didn't re~inlist or transfer......later.. after the war? I am not sure how this works with the re~listing but it is an idea to think about Just thought I would run this by you since our grandfathers were inlisted in the 150th for a short time.
