Hi, Rick and welcome!
My husband's grandfather, John Robert Brown, enlisted in the Union Army in
Garrard Co., KY in 1861. He was mustered in at Smithland, KY and mustered
out in Louisville, KY. He was a resident of New Albany, IN, but enlisted in
KY. He was in the 20th Kentucky Volunteers. They fought at Shiloh among
other places. He was wounded in a battle and said to have a hole remaining
through one of his legs. He gained the rank of Sergeant. He is buried in
the National Cemetery in New Albany, IN.

Hi everyone!
My name is Rick Berkheiser and I'm your new List Administrator. I'm
replacing Ron Smith who did a super job in keeping this list humming along
during his tenure. THANKS RON! All the best to you as you move on to
bigger and better things. :-)
I have been a Civil War buff for well over 20 years visiting many of the
great
battlefields of that conflict around the country. I also have an
interest in many of the Hoosiers who fought during the war. Periodically,
as I run across them, I'll be posting biographies of those individuals
including old newspaper accounts of veterans, etc. Some of my ancestors
served on the Union side as well.
I look forward to working with all of you and getting to know you in the
coming
weeks and months.
Thanks! :-)
Rick B
List Administrator
