Company B
John L Kinnamon - Private
Private Kinnamon of Ironton, Wisc. enlisted on 25 Sep 1861 and received a disability discharge on 30 Nov 1863. I believe he was with his unit at Vicksburg in June-July 1863, but have had trouble following Company B after that until they were on operations around Natchez, MS in December 1863, at which point he was already discharged. The Civil War Pension Index notes on an application 6 Jun 1864 as invalid. I would greatly appreciate any help pointing me in a direction where I can find out what happened to him.
