I thought I would add Joseph even if I do not have burial records so family connections can be made. My searches did find reference to burials from the Battle of Franklin being re-interred to this Cemetery. It is difficult to believe he was not identified since he died 10 days after the battle. No evidence of his burial in Illinois.

Also reference to burial of Battle of Franklin dead on great blog about the battle.
