Prior to me managing this memorial, nearly all of the below data was Copy and Pasted by whomever from the data I had on WorldConnect. :)
The military stone placed by the American Legion is not correct. Another John Berkheiser buried in Weasaw Baptist Cemetery, Miami County, Indiana is the one who served in this particular unit. I have all of the Berkheiser pension files I could locate and this Jonathan Berkheiser did not serve in the Civil War as far as I know at this writing.
Rick Berkheiser
Jonathan Berkheiser, aged 76 years, who died from paralysis this afternoon at 1:25 at the family home, practically starved to death, his tongue and throat being paralyzed. He suffered a second stroke about two weeks ago and his first stroke in May 1911.
