Thanks to the combined efforts of Karen Marshall and Mark Davis, we have a wonderful new addition to the Grant County Page. These two individuals have worked together to create a list of all the soldiers who fought in the Civil War from Grant County, or elsewhere and are buried here. Have a question about any of the soldiers listed here please contact Karen Marshall or Mark Davis.
If you have additional information, service records, or photographs that you would like to have included here, please contact John Peck

NOTE: Soldiers marked with an * asterisk are buried in Grant Co., but served from elsewhere.
