Re: John L. Martin - poss. 6th Inf or 1st Cav (CS)

Jim,

That's just what I needed. You've settled something of a family argument. Originally, this man, my gg-uncle was supposed to have been a Union soldier. I did some looking and determined that he had been a Confederate soldier in the 1st Missouri Cavalry (CS), but another family member found an article from the St. Louis Republic newspaper that identified this man as a member of the 6th Missouri Infantry. Even though I get a little discount on Compiled Service Records, I still didn't want to have to buy the one for the 6th Missouri just to find out.

Thanks again. BTW, I'm glad to see the MMCWRT website back up. Are you still a member?

Jim
