Nice website.

George Barlow was my GGG Grandfather. He was originally from Overton County, TN. He went to Kentucky to join the 27th KY. He was wounded in the head, but survived the war to return home and raise a family.

I would like to know any other info on Isaiah Henson. He is listed on the 1890 Veterans Schedule in Wright County Missouri and says he was disabled his name was spelled Isara. Gives his enlistment date of July 1862 but no discharge info. He was born and raised in Casey County Kentucky with his father Elisha Henson and Mother Elizabeth Clifton (he had another wife by the name of Elizabeth Hardin). Married to Rachel Price. Died and buried in Mansfield, Missouri.

My great-great grandfather was Mathew Weatherington, who died in Nov 1863 during the Battle of Knoxville, TN. He is buried in the National Cemetery there. Does anyone have a picture of Mathew or the 27th infantry? I have a picture of the flag-bearer but not much more. Thanks for your help!
