Daniel Anders was my Great Grandfather on my Mothers side. He settled near Pearson, Michigan (Kent County) as a farmer after the war, and raised a family of 12 sons and 1 daughter. His youngest son was my Grandfather who was only about 3 years old when Daniel Anders died in about 1900. According to his official records Daniel received two bullet wounds during the Battle of Shiloh. He served throughout the duration of the 71st Ohio, mustering out in 1865.
