Suggested edit: From Fold3: Alonzo A. Beecher joined the 3rd Independent Battery Connecticut Artillery on 1 Sept. 1864 for one year. He was on the defense line near City Point VA during a severe thunderstorm without adequate shelter. Contracted a severe cold which developed into pneumonia or congestion of the lungs, and there was no surgeon available at the time. His wife Lizzie A. Owens, whom he married on 17 Oct. 1864, applied for a pension. (There are multiple pages on Fold3 concerning this application.)
