Company A
Hiram Clinton Buck - Private
Hiram served from September 1862 to summer of 63 with Michigan's 21st Volunteer Infantry, company A. Considering the one year time frame I am wondering if he was injured. His widow applied for benefits, I'm not sure if she received them or not. How do I find out the answer to these questions?
