My great uncle, who lived in Daviess County, was a member of the 11th Mo Inf, CSA. His service record indicates that he enlisted Sep 1862 at Camp Elk Horn. (One of the muster rolls called it Camp Sugar Creek.) So far, I've been unable to locate this site. Since Daviess County stayed under Federal control for the whole course of the war, I assume that the location is elsewhere and that he -- like many of his neighbors -- slipped out of his county for a rendesvous site. Does anyone know where Camp Elk Horn was? Marv Burge
