Does anyone have any info on Francis Marion Snell who was killed in the Battle of Murfreesboro and died on January 31st, 1862. He was from Rutherford County and was buried in the Snell-Newman Cemetery in Rutherford County. He was Confederate. He would have been a Private because he was only in for a day or two before he was killed. His wife did apply for a pension: NAME: Snell, Francis M.
