John,

Thanks. Was it common for members of the CCHG to enlist in Leavenworth KS?

I have some more names that look like matches between the CCHG, 15th KS Cav, and/or the 3rd mil Cav. If anyone can say yeah or nay, it would help greatly.

3rd Cav, Cass:
Pvt Brown, William B
Pvt/Lt Hickman, Henry F
Pvt Morris, William

15th KS Cav, Cass
Pvt Armstrong, A Chester
Pvt Arnold, John S
Pvt Bench, Daniel

Pvt/Cpl Secoy, Walter
Pvt/Maj Simpson, Benjamin F

I had to edit in the ranks, so I could have made typos. Note that the first rank in the CCHG, or the 3rd Cav. I do not have my system checking for reasonable changes in rank, yet. Note that I have not yet purged all the "sounds alike" names. I guess it must be true that our Benjamin F Simpson went from a Pvt in the CCHG to a Major in the 15th Cav.
