Welcome Rick,
My gg grandfather ( father's side)Jesse Newton Gass was in Company H,
93rd Regiment Indiana Volunteers. He and his brother were among the captured
at Guntown, Mississippi. He spent time in Andersonville and Cahaba Prisons
and survived the Sultana disaster and was mustered out July 19, 1865. He
died from the effects of wounds received in the Civil War when he was 36
years old.
My gg grandfather (Mother's side) Peter S. Marshall was in Company D,
Regiment 38 Indiana Infantry. wounded at the battle of Chaplin Hills,
Perryville, Kentucky where he lay on the ground 3 days and 2 nights before
Andrew Pitts, a member of his company found him and had him cared for. (
taken from his Civil War Pension Application)
My ggg grandfather Joseph Martin Marshall ( Peter's father) was in
Company B 24th Missouri Infantry. He died of Typhoid Fever and is buried in
Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery in St. Louis, Missouri.
William C. Marshall ( Peter's brother) my gg Uncle, was in MO 8th Cav.
Co.D (Confederate) had went with parents to homestead in Arkansas and when
the war broke out the family made it back to Indiana but William didn't make
it back to the North and was made to join, never actually fought because he
was so young, he took care of the horses and was a blacksmith all his life.
As you can see, in my family it was brother against brother and father
against son. Joyce in Indiana
