I've received this generous lookup offer from John Shuck, and it's now
listed on the Decatur genweb lookup page.
Hi John,
Sure, I would be happy to help out. The title of the book is "From
Philippi to Appomattox: Seventh Indiana Infantry in the War for the
Union," by Orville Thomson, 1908. Published by Author. Reprinted in
1993 as the second volume of the Army of the Potomac Series by Butternut
and Blue. 200 pages plus roster of companies and index.
FYI the rosters are as follows:
Company A Dearborn County
Company B Hendricks County
Company C Ohio County
Company D Decatur County
Company E Decatur County
Company F Johnson County
Company G Decatur County
Company H Hendricks County
Company I Marion County
Company K Dearborn County
Again, some soldiers served in different companies as opposed to their
county of origin, like my g-grandfather who was from Johnson County but
served in Company E. I will do lookups for anyone thorugh the entire
regimental list.
If you run across any other information about Company E or the soldiers
from Decatur County (a photograph would be great!) let me know!
Thanks!
