Surnames: Rooney Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/2FC.2ACI/1735 Message Board Post: I am trying to find information regarding Michael P. Rooney (1844-1865) and John Rooney (1849-1862), brothers buried in the Town of Mitchell. Both men served for the Union. John died at the First Cold Harbor/Gaines Mills. Michael died after the war, as a result of his wounds. They did not appear to enlist through WI however. The Rooney family apparently was in Akron, OH first, and then moved to Mitchell in Sheboygan County. It is believed they enlisted there. Does anyone know how I can find out more about the military service of these two? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you.
