Craig, I realize this is an old posting but it can be valuable to me proving that Artificier James W Thomas is actually buried in as Unknown in Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery. He is one of those killed alongside the tracks, mentioned by name by Sgt Thomas M. Goodman.

You mentioned "Here is the information that was found:" then describe the disenterrment on June 18, 1867.

Where did you find this information? Cemetery records in Mexico?

To make my claim with the VA for a marker, a "good" source is necessary, I sure appreciate it if you could help me.

Thanx in advance,

Tom Thomas
