Here is a list of Indiana soldiers that were either killed, died or were wounded. I had no reason as to way I picked these men other then I found their information interesting. For those of you who didn’t find a ancestor here and know your ancestor was killed or died in battle but don’t know where or how, can ask for a look up. You can find my address in my profile.

Update 4-20-2012.
I just recived the information from Lela Curtis.
Otho C. McCracken did not die in Nashville in 1864. He didn't die until 1901 and is buried in Brush Creek Cemetery, Jennings County, Indiana.
See:

There is a pension file for him. This is the ancestry.com page that shows it quickly.
