Andrew J. Armstrong
Co. K, 2nd Kansas Calvary Civil War

This soldiers grave was reinterred at Jefferson Barraks Cemetery as an unknown soldier of the Civil War, after a flood in 1876 washed away the wooden markers of 470 soldiers graves at Arsenal/Quarantine Island Cemetery in St. Louis, MO, where he was previously buried.
