Re: 37th MS hospital deaths/10-1862

I'd venture that he would have died in the hospital at West Point, nearest to Columbus. 2nd bet would be Oxford, nearest to Saltillo.

There may have been other hospitals, these are the two nearest their locations during this period which have records found at the National ArchivesI'd venture that he would have been in the hospital at West Point, nearest to Columbus. 2nd bet would be Oxford, nearest to Saltillo

There's also the possibility that he could have returned home in Clarke County and died in a hospital there.
