| Bio and Links |
I began doing family genealogy over 30 years ago.After I retired from the military, I became very interested in the Civil War. I had visited many civil war cemeteries, and the many unknown soldiers buried in them. Every soldier who died in war for his country should be known and honored. And the families of the soldier should be able to know where he is buried, this has been my goal to provide that information to those who are searching for a soldier.
I spend a great deal of my time traveling to battlefields and cemeteries, and researching information on a soldier or person. If at anytime I can be of help or if you need more information please contact me. Or if you have more information on a soldier. If a correction needs to be made "PLEASE" contact me. Don't write an other "BIO" in the Flowers and Notes section of the Memorial. Leave a message or email me anytime.
I will tranfer memorials if it is a request made by a relative of a soldier. If you are not related please do not ask. If you have information in regards to a soldiers memorial I will be more then happy to add it.
"The Bivouac of The Dead"
The muffled drums sad roll's all beat
the soldier's last tatoo,
No more on life's parade shall meet
The brave and fallen few.
The neighing troop, the flashing blade,
The bugles stirring blast,
The charge,the dreadful cannonade,
The din and shout are past.
Rest on embalmed and sainted dead,
Dear as the blood ye gave,
No impious footstep here shall thread.
The herbage of your grave,
On fame's enternal camping ground,
Their silent tents are spread,
And glory guards with solemn round,
The bivouac of the dead.
No vision of the morrow's strife
The warrior's dream alarms,
No braying horn nor screaming fife
At dawn shall call to arms,
No rumor of the foe's advance
Now sweeps upon the wind,
No troubled thought at midnight haunts
Of love ones left behind,
Your own proud land's heroic soil
must be your fitter grave;
She claims from war his richest spoil,
The ashes of the brave.
-Theodore O'Hara-

Just noticed... Jonathan has arrived at Richmond National. Rich. | | | Craig L. Burton

Thank you for transferring Robert's memorial to me.

| RE: The elusive Jonathan Gregory
Done. You should link him to his wife, #5604663 Sarah... that might get Raelyn's attention? (Seems she's inactive, or simply doesn't know how to move him.) Rich. | | | Rich Dohm
| RE: The elusive Jonathan Gregory
As we suspected, Jonathan IS at Richmond National. I posted new photos on his errant memorial, assuming you'll ask that it be moved? I know that can be easier said than done, so if you create a new memorial, let me know and I'll move the photos. Rich. | | | Rich Dohm
| RE: The elusive Jonathan Gregory
That's fine Ted. Rest assured, I'll find him for you. I'm certain he's at Richmond (not Glendale) National. No soldier left behind, right? But tomorrow I'll be all day at Lakeview Cemetery in Victoria, so it'll be Sunday (weather permitting) that I'll find this guy for you. Know what I think? User Raelyn posted him to the wrong cemetery in 2010, then user Tony added that photo in 2011 without noticing... that's Richmond National in the background. I'll let you know for sure, likely Sunday evening. Rich. | | | | [View all messages...] |
