And thanks also to fellow member David Seaney for providing information indicating that John's headstone seems to be in error as far as his unit goes, and that he was a member of the 8th Indiana *Cavalry* rather than Infantry:

(Also see his Application for Headstone, posted on this memorial. It shows he was in the 8th Indiana Cavalry / 39th Indiana Infantry. Somehow his headstone was created mistakenly showing "8th Indiana Infantry").
