I know that one of my great grandfather's brothers fought in the war for the Union. His name was John S. Wilson from Dallas County, MO. Is there someone who could help me with his regiment, etc? This is the information from a Dallas County History book: " General Frank J. Herron Post No. 161, G.A.R. was organized in Muffalo in the year 1884 with the following charter members George W. O'Bannon, John C. Bennett, B. F. McHenry, Daniel Robertson, John S. Wilson, W. J. Vanhorn, C. L. Curtice, John A. Ramsay, F. M. Brown, O. Q, Barbarick, James S. Hazlett, George Delaplain, J. K. P. Bridges, A. J. Patterson, F. A. Van Norman. The G.A.R. post met in the courthouse for its regular meetings." Thank you very much Norma Mc
