Re: KIA at Battle of Franklin; where are they buri

Hello Lanita, The 44th Missouri was involved in some of the heaviest fighting and Andrew's body was likely buried by the Rebels one or two days after the battle. Many of those same Federal troops were later exhumed and reburied at the Murfreesboro National Cemetery. The Franklin dead have a section all their own but most are listed as Unknown. I believe they are buried in Section "I" and I would guess that is where Andrew rests. Hope this helps. Eric
