I am trying to find information on a possible burying ground for a CSA Hospital at Grand Junction, Hardeman County.
Grand Junction, being about 50 miles west of Shiloh and Corinth, probably saw a lot of activity with maybe a sizable hospital cemetery was established.

I have in my family file a distant in-law relative (a husband-in-law of a distant cousins wife, serious) a Pvt Thomas Jefferson Baker of the 21st Alabama Infantry that is reported as dying at Grand Junction, June 17 1862, with the mention dying at the hospital at Grand Junction June 17, 1862.
That's not a lot of info in Pvt Bakers CSR to go on but maybe enough to concentrate on that area for a possible abandoned mass burial wherever they buried the boys.
Or could they have disinterred and removed them to another cemetery?

I requested info about Baker from the Alabama Message Board and several stepped up and came up with enough information and ideas to bring me here about this. And certainly to want to locate the graveyard in the Grand Junction area if there is one.

My request at the Bama Board and their responses, up to this point, on all of this if anyone can help or interested,

Pvt Baker's page in my family file,, was totally blank, except name. A work in progress.

Thanks ahead for all info, thoughts, ideas and surmises about any of this.
