Four Faces Of 115th., Illinois Infantry.

Here are four men of the 115th., Illinois Infantry, I picked them as they looked so young.  Some did not make it out of the war.  Each man has a short Biography, but because it has to be copied by hand then retuyped I will not put them here.  However you can request it by giving the name of the soldier and regiments number and the page number ( 115th.
