Michigans Youngest Drummer, Willie Young.
Here is a interesting young man, his name is Willie Young, and was a drummer in the 24th., Michigan infantry company G. Willie Young was barely 13, years old when he enlisted on August 15, 1862, he put down that he was from Detroit Michigan, and was a student. Willie Young was a drummer through out the war. I can’t find any more on this young man, and I would be most interested in learning more about him. If you know more about this young man I would like to hear about it.m
