Cross reference lists provide names of veterans by state of service, federal service, rank (other than Private), and Wisconsin regiment for those who served from Wisconsin. Also, a listing of all Civil War dependents - wives, widows, mothers, and daughters buried in the same cemetery. The listing includes: full name, birth/death dates, and burial location. For most, the name and military unit is listed for the veteran-sponsor. A cross reference list of known maiden names is also included. Additional text includes a detailed biography of Sgt John W. Only, who was an indentured servant before the war, served in the 43rd US Colored Infantry during the war, and then served in two different 'Buffalo Soldier' units after the war: the 9th and 10th US Cavalry regiments. A basic map of the original half of the cemetery - where all of the Civil War burials were made - is included, with instruction for locating grave locations.

Final Resting Places
Author: Brian Matthew JordanPublisher: University of Georgia Press
ISBN: 0820364584
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 375
Book Description
Final Resting Places brings together some of the most important and innovative scholars of the Civil War era to reflect on what death and memorialization meant to the Civil War generation-and how those meanings still influence Americans today. In each essay, a noted historian explores a different type of gravesite-including large marble temples, unmarked graves beneath the waves, makeshift markers on battlefields, mass graves on hillsides, neat rows of military headstones, university graveyards, tombs without bodies, and small family plots. Each burial place tells a unique story of how someone lived and died; how they were mourned and remembered. Together, they help us reckon with the most tragic period of American history. CONTRUBUTORS: Terry Alford, Melodie Andrews, Edward L. Ayers, DeAnne Blanton, Michael Burlingame, Katherine Reynolds Chaddock, John M. Coski, William C. Davis, Douglas R. Egerton, Stephen D. Engle, Barbara Gannon, Michael P. Gray, Hilary Green, Allen C. Guelzo, Anna Gibson Holloway, Vitor Izecksohn, Caroline E. Janney, Michelle A. Krowl, Glenn W. LaFantasie, Jennifer M. Murray, Barton A. Myers, Timothy J. Orr, Christopher Phillips, Mark S. Schantz, Dana B. Shoaf, Walter Stahr, Michael Vorenberg, and Ronald C. White
