John James Robertson (aka Jack) was born 27 April 1846 in Benton Co., Missouri to Richard I. and Sarai (Foster) Robertson. His name appears on the roster for Company D, 11th Missouri Infantry with a notation of 'music' beside his name. As you might have calculated, he was a little young at the time of the Civil War, but most likely he was not completely truthful about his age at enlistment.
