Company C

Private

Asher Fenton Taylor was my great-great-great-grandfather. He enlisted in 1862, I believe at the regiment's formation, and has a date of death listed as 8/15/1862 in Albany, Indiana. He died of illness. It is possible he had been a prisoner of war who was exchanged, but I have been unable to verify this.
