1911 Civil War Soldiers Reunion

submitted by Bob Harris

My great grandfather was Joseph Schumacher from Lynnville. In 1911 my g-grandfather held a Civil War Vets Reunion at his home just North of Lynnville. I have in my possession a photograph of the people at the reunion. I am able to identify sixteen of the thirty-seven who attended. I was wondering if you might be able to help in identifying the rest of the group either personally or on your web site.

If you know any of these people, please send their names into me for admission on this site.
