HICKORY COUNTY CIVIL WAR VETERANS

The 295 names of Civil War veterans residing in Hickory County listed below were gleaned from various issues of The Index, Hickory County's newspaper. Newspaper dates are listed under "Source". In many cases, individuals were listed in multiple papers. If all information matched, only one source is cited. Where information did not match, alternative information is given (color coded as to source date).

This is clearly NOT an exhaustive list of all Hickory Countians who served in the Civil War. Two of my relatives are not listed, one who died in service and one who served for the Confederacy. Many who moved away before October 1888 are also not listed.
