Adam Swartzwalter - Private
|
Adam and his brother Robert were both enrolled for military service during in the War Between the States in Fort Wayne, Allen County, Indiana on 24 September 1861 by Captain Dawson. They were both mustered in that same day by Major Carpenter. He was assigned to Company G, 30th Indiana Volunteer Infantry Regiment. He was described as being 24 years old with hazel eyes, light hair, 5 foot 9 inches in height with a light complexion.
Not long after the New Year of 1862 began, Adam fell gravely ill while the 30th was stationed in Louisville, Kentucky and soon died in in the hospital there on January 24th, the victim of pestilence in the form of Typhoid Fever (even though there is one reference to it having been the Measles). Adam was laid to rest in a section of the Cave Hill Cemetery in Louisville that would evolve into a National Cemetery.

Robert and his brother Adam were both enrolled for military service during in the War Between the States in Fort Wayne, Allen County, Indiana on 24 September 1861 by Captain Dawson. They were both mustered in that same day by Major Carpenter. Robert was listed as being 22 years old with hazel eyes, light hair, 5 foot 7 1/2 inches in height with a light complextion. He was assigned as a Private to Company G, 30th Indiana Volunteer Infantry Regiment (3 years). At this time the regiment was commanded by Colonel Sion S. Bass.
The regiment was ordered to Camp Nevin, Kentucky, and reported to General Rousseau October 9. Camp at Nolin River, Kentucky, until February 1862. It then was marched to Bowling Green, Kentucky, then to Nashville, Tennessee, February 14-March 3. Later it was marched to Savannah, Tennessee, March 16-April 6. It took part in the Battle of Shiloh, April 6–7. Following this combat, it was part of the advance on and siege of Corinth, Mississippi, April 29-May 30. The 30th to part in the pursuit to Booneville May 31-June 6.
It played a role in Buell's Campaign in northern Alabama and middle Tennessee June to August. The regiment was marched to Louisville, Kentucky, in pursuit of Bragg, August 21-September 26 and on into Kentucky October 1–22.
It was near Clay Village October 4 and four days later participated in the Battle of Perryville, Kentucky on October 8 (in reserve). The 30th was then marched back to Nashville, Tennessee, October 22-November 7, and remained on duty there until December 26.
It took part in the reconnaissance toward Lavergne, Tennessee on November 19 and later on November 26–27. It remained in the area of Lavergne and Scrougesville November 27. From there the 30th Indiana was ordered to advance on Murfreesboro, Tennessee from December 26–30. It took part in the Battle of Stones River near Murfreesboro December 30–31, 1862 and January 1–3, 1863. It remained on duty at Murfreesboro until June 1863.
The 30th Indiana was involved in the Tullahoma Campaign from June 23-July 7. It took part in the Battle at Liberty Gap June 24–27.
It remained as a unit of occupation of the middle Tennessee area until August 16 1863. It was soon ordered to make the passage of the Cumberland Mountains and Tennessee River and Chickamauga Campaign August 16-September 22 where it was engaged in the Battle of Chickamauga September 19–20.
It was then assigned duty at Whiteside, Tyner's Station, and Blue Springs, Tennessee, until April 1864. Robert Swartzwalter was discharged at Blue Springs, Tennessee on 18 February 1864 so he could re-enlist as a Volunteer Veteran under General Order # 191 from the War Department Series 1863. He was mustered as a veteran on 31 January.
Shortly afterwards, on the evening of the 23rd of February, Robert was wounded by an edged weapon in a fight with a highwaymen near the town of Cleveland, Tennessee. 30th Regiment Muster rolls list him as "wounded in a hospital at Cleveland, Tennessee" since that time. He was ultimately discharged from the 30th Regiment, Indiana Infantry on May 21st 1864 at Blue Springs, Tennessee on a Surgeon's Certificate of Discharge for paralysis of his left side. He was not recommended as subject for the Invalid Corps. He returned home to recuperate.
