Company B

Private

Patrick enlisted in the 19th Indiana Infantry Regiment in Indianapolis in June 1861. He served with the regiment from his enlistment until he was reported missing at Gettysburg July 1-3 1863. He was a cousin to a great great grandmother of mine. He was probably killed or died of his wounds outright during the battle and now lies in one of the unknown graves at the National Cemetery at Gettysburg alongside hundreds of other patriots who gave the last full measure of devotion. he was part of the famous Iron Brigade.
