Have you found out anything more about his burial place? Is there any museum
that has a display about him? Any other information you have would be helpful.
Thanks, Pam |

My g-grandfather Mathias Kirsch fought in the Civil War. I have found
his pension form and it says he filed in Iowa on July 23, 1890 and Missouri
on October 23, 1903. I know he joined the army in Wayland, New York. Can
anyone give me a clue why he would have filed for pension in Missouri?
He lived and died in Iowa. I would sure appreciate any help. I am trying
to find out where he was from 1862 til 1881. Maybe Missouri is where I
have to look. Anyway if you can answer why he would file for pension in
Missouri, I would appreciate it. |

Does anyone out there have any information on Hobb's Company, 2nd Northeast
Missouri Cavalry, C.S.A. The regiment was commanded by Colonel Cyrus Franklin.
Captain Joshua Hobb's, I think, was captured in late 1862. I am especially
interested in any accounts describing their involment in the war, including
the raid on Canton and the Battle of Kirksville. My wife Cathy is a direct
descendant of Second Lieutenant Samuel Ewalt, of Hobb's Company. Ewalt
came from a well to do Southern Family in LaBelle, Lewis County, Missouri.
He had five other brothers serving in the Confederate cause, two of which
were KIA. Samuel, whose mother, Ketturah Stamps Ewalt, was a sister-in
law of Jefferson Davis. Any information on Samuel Ewalt, especially a photograph,
would be appreciated. Samuel lived 1831 to 1898. He had made the trip to
California during the Gold Rush in 1852. He married Martha Jane Wilson
in 1859. They had several children, my wife's direct ancestor being Kitty
Lou, who was born in 1864. Samuel had accepted Jesus Christ as his Savior
in 1860. He was very active in the church and supported a church run orphanage
in Canton. His widow died as the result of an automibile accident near
Cody, Wyoming in 1917. Any details on Samuel Ewalt or his Confederate brothers
would be appreciated. Thank you. |

The story implies strongly that Sam was at least part Cherokee but doesn't
come right out and say so. It states that the white men, in the case Firman
McIlvane, used the "Old Mule Trick" on Indians. Is it your opinion then,
that Sam was at least part Cherokee? And if so, what of his wife, Margaret

records were destroyed because he was located in the 1890 census stating
his infantry. I think i read somewhere that the information was lost and
the census takers at that time ask who was in the civil war and the information.
I guess they took his word for it because he was receiving a pension according

According to his pension application, he served in Co. E, 10th Missouri
Infantry Regiment under Brig.Gen M.M. Parsons and Col. W.M. Moore. His
name is John David Cockerham and was born in Union Co., Arkasas. He was
living at Three Creeks, Union Co., Ar. when he entered the service in 1864.
He served till the War ended.I'm sure all his time was spent in Arkansas
while the 10th Missouri was involved in the Red River Campaign.Col. Moore
was listed as wounded at the Battle of Jenkins Ferry, in Arkansas. I have
been trying to locate rolls of enlisted personnel who served in The 10th
Missouri while it was in the District of Arkansas but have not had much
luck yet. John David Cockerham's application was rejected. It was submitted
in 1930. His name was mis-spelled and I think this contributed to the rejection.
The last name was spelled Cocherham. John David died in 1934 and is buried
in Tarrant County, Texas. He was born in 1845, Union County, AR. If anyone
can help, it would be greatly appreciated. Jim |

I was told that my great-grandfather - his name was either Donaldson
Day or Capt. John Day was in the civil war . During the l870's and l880's,
he lived in Breckenridge, Chillicolthe, or Laclede, MO. My father Clarence
Day (l900-1982), visited him in an "old soldier's home" in the early l900's
in Missouri. His family included my grandfather, Elmer Day, and other children
as labeled on a picture of the family: Ida, Auther, and Bird. He and his
wife are simply labeled, mother and father. Great-grandfather has Civil
War medals on his vest and jacket in the picture. Any information would
be helpful. Does anyone know where there was an old soldier's home in the
area mentioned or near Kansas City? Phyllis Flinn |

I'm wondering if you can help me. I'm searching for my g-g-grandfather,

a variation thereof), his residence was Randolph County in northeastern
Arkansas, and he served in Kitchen's 30-day unit in Arkansas from November
18 to December 18, 1861. This unit was not involved in any fighting during
this period. His name does not appear in any other Arkansas > lists, and
it is believed that he, like many others in northeastern Arkansas, went
to Missouri after this 30-day period. I have a letter from > him dated
March 28, 1862 which does not state where he is located, but does indicate
that he was fighting on the Confederate side. My question is this: Is there
a comprehensive list of soldiers fighting in Missouri? If not, where is

what happened to him, and hopefully wherehe's > buried. Any information

1861 when he joined Colonel John S. Phelps regiment and was stationed at
Rolla most of the time.At the end of his term of enlistment he served again
in the Missouri State militia and then in the (5th) Prov. Reg. until the
spring of 1864. From there he was detailed home and then in the fall of
1864 he joined the 46th MO Inf. as second lieutenant of Company I or 1
(this is not clear) in Ozark county and Springfield most of the time. After
the war he was made sherrif of Ozark county and at the election of 1866
was selected to the office for two years and again in 1874. In 1884 he
was elected to the legislature on the Dem. ticket and served on the committees
on Retrenchment and Reform and county boundries. As you can see he must
have been a popular and well known man, but I am unable to find his name
and/or any of his 19 childrens names in any of the Coffey genealogy sites
I have searched. There just doesn't seem to be much info on this branch
