In looking at info in the Gerdes site found the info that Wheats Bn was only two Prairie Co companies, but in the action at Aberdeen July 6, 1862 two men of what would become Co H of Monroes Regt (the Saline Co company) were killed in that battle. I believe there may have been 3 companies in that Bn and Captain George Browns Saline County bunch were over looked. Both Co A (Wheats Co) and Co E (Raulstons) had casualties at the same battle. So, Browns Co was part of that force so maybe a missing link to that early Bn.
