Carl J Ekholm - Corporal |
|
Carl Ekholm is listed as 'Carl Eskholm.' He immigrated with Carl Hogberg (also company I) from Stockholm, Sweden and jumped ship to join the Union Army. They enlisted together and both were sent to fight on the front line, neither speaking english. He was captured by the South in Tennessee but managed to escape and sleep in a 'dog tent' (his words for pup tent) until he found his unit again. He was a big man (over 6') and didn't fit in the tent and suffered frost bite which caused him to be on disability later in life—thus I found an extensive military pension record. In 1867 he changed his name to Gus Redding and lived in Omaha, Nebraska where he was city manager and served on the city council. He is my father's grandfather and was born in 1839.
