People have written to me about the post for this stone and told me it was wrong, I knew it was wrong after it was set, but I felt there wasn't much I could do about it now. I am the person who had this stone ordered and put in. I have Thomas's civil war papers and pension papers which clearing states he was with the Iowa 22 Infantry. I still have the forms I mailed the government which clearing states Iowa, but this is not the first time I've been sent wrong things, it took three tries to get another set of Civil War records for someone else. I received WWI, & Spanish American Files, they don't seem to read thoroughly . Real smart people in Washington as you known. I Live in Ohio and the stone was sent directly to the cemetery so I never saw it till after it was set. I made a trip to Oklahoma to see if any stones were there , no one in the family plot has their grave marked, so now with at least with Thomas's stone we know his family is right beside him. He is our great grandfather.
