Hi List, I have two family members who joined the 50th EMM at Kirksville, Adair Co., Mo. One joined on March 14, 1863, the other on Oct 1, 1862. Both served until March 31, 1863. They were both privates in Co II, and served under Capt. Feller. On April 1, 1863, they were ordered into active service from the 50th Reg't EMM, into the 2nd Reg't Provisional EMM. They were relieved from duty October 28, 1863, by Lt. Col. Wm P. Harrison, per S.O. 63, Headquarters Reg't. What was special order 63? Neither wife was able to collect a pension. One wife was told they could find no record of her husband serving (this one served the longest). The other wife was told her husband only served 17 days. Your help is appreciated, Carol
