Henry Cobb Rosebrook was the twelfth child born to Eleazer and Harriett Guptill (Gubtill) and he was a twin to Ebeneazer Cobb Rosebrook who only lived for a year. Henry was in Co. E., 26th Regiment of Gouldsboro Maine Infantry. Per the record he died of "disease".

Historical researches of Gouldsboro, Maine (Gouldsboro, Me.: Daughters of Liberty, c1904)...Page 107 The Gouldsboro Volunteers who served in the Civil War were:

Co. E., 26th Regiment: *Mahlon C. Witham, West Gouldsboro, discharged, Jan. 2; *Nathan Shaw, Jr., West Gouldsboro, promoted 2nd lieutenant; *George W. Wood, West Gouldsboro, Sergeant; Elisha C. Ash, West Gouldsboro, died of disease, March 9; Amos E. Guptill, Gouldsboro, musician, wounded, Apr. 14, '62; Charles E. Bunker, Gouldsboro; James H. Handy, Gouldsboro, died of disease Jan. 19, '63; *Freeland R. Rosebrook, West Gouldsboro; Henry C. Rosebrook, Gouldsboro, died of disease April 2d, '63; Epps H. Sargent, Gouldsboro; Sherman T. Spurling, Gouldsboro; Christopher Tracy, Gouldsboro, died of disease March 18, '63; James B. Wright, Gouldsboro; *Everett H. Young, Gouldsboro, promoted Sergeant; *Bethuel S. Young, Winter Harbor; *Bedford Young, Winter Harbor; Alfred Young, Gouldsboro; Roscoe G. Young, Gouldsboro. *Deceased

Henry was actually buried in the Baton Rouge National Cemetery in Louisiana and I have attached his headstone there as well as his interment papers. I only recently came across his headstone in Maine when I made contact with a lady by the name of Jennifer Stucker who along with her husband did the major repairs for this headstone, donating the cost of the repairs to a fund to redo a headstone for Rebecca Young who is buried in the old Mill Pond Cemetery in Gouldsboro, Maine. Thank you Jennifer.

I am sure Henry's family did this Memorial for him in order to have something closer where they could pay their respects. I am looking for his twins grave which is probably in this same cemetery.

His body is buried in the following cemetery:
