I have just signed up for this list. My great-grandmother was Eunice
Crandall Berry, who grew up near Elrod. Her grandparents were Stephen
Hamilton and Elizabeth Wilson.
I have a question about Jesse Hamilton. He is listed on the website as
a Civil War vet (Corporal, 83rd Regiment, Company E, mustered out 20
August 1862). I had been told that he died in the war, but his death
date from the Wilson Cemetery records is 25 Mar 1863. Meanwhile, the
Federal archives NARA has no record of any pension file.
Does anyone know more about Jesse?
Thanks.
