The Missouri in the Civil War Message Board

Lost Family - Lost Cause by Ivan N. McKee

This book (subtitled "A Story of the McGee Family in Wayne County, Missouri during the Civil War years") is very rare and almost impossible to find. However, the website below has several pages of the book available for viewing: Pages 58-60, 62-63 and 66-78. The majority of the pages deal with the murders of the seven Confederates buried in the Cowan Cemetery in Wayne County, Missouri. A photo of the monument to these men is also included. A good source of information regarding this incident.
