Hello List, I was wondering if you had any information on Henry and / or his son Elijah WHITENER being in the Civil War? They lived in the Bollinger and Madison County area of MO... Some areas mentioned where the families lived are Marquand and Trace Creek and others. On the UNDERWOOD side of the family we have Carter Z. UNDERWOOD ( I don't have any info on him) and his son Enoch UNDERWOOD ( don't think Enoch was alive for the war.). There was a newspaper article that names Enoch as Lincoln UNDERWOOD. Thats all I have. Thank you for any help you can give to me. Sandee --------------------------------- Yahoo! Shopping Find Great Deals on Holiday Gifts at Yahoo! Shopping
