Re Joseph E Green

From Pulaski county history:
"The only actions of enough importance to be even called skirmishes, which occurred within the limits of the county, were the following: On October 18, 1862, scouts brought in word that Col. Porter was making his way south, toward the California House, with Southern recruits; Col. Sigel took a command from Waynesville, and a running fight occurred near the California House; a few were captured, and the few killed were buried in the cemetery near by. Mr. G.W. Colley was among the number who helped bury them.

Not more than a mile and half from this place, then the residence of Hugh McCoin, a Union man, some "bushwhackers" played a sort of double skirmish; McCoin was taking some soldiers to Waynesville, when they were surrounded and compelled to "trade clothes" with the "bushwhackers;" McCoin's life was also threatened, but the execution of the threat was prevented by one of their number, who had once been in McCoin's employ, it is said. They left a guard with the McCoin prisoners, and hastened to capture a squad of escorts returning from Lebanon; they were successful, killed several, and ordered McCoin to haul the bodies into Waynesville."

So this Capt Green was with Porter recruiting in 1862 presumably. His Gratiot record has him listed as dead of pneumonia Dec 28 1862 following Rubeola. He is listed as Capt Company B. see https://www.fold3.com/image/119829421
