Artillery (aka Jo Thompson Artillery) Referred to as Jees L. McAlister of
J.S. McCallister or Jesse S. McAllister from enlisted for 3 years as a

and then sent to Camp Morton, Indianapolis, Indiana on 21 May 1864.  At
Camp Morton he wished to take the Oath of Allegiance to the U.S. and go
home to Nashville, Tenn., a Loyal Man.  He died at the post Hospital
there of Smallpox on 2 May 1864 (2 May is listed on government records,

bodies (1616 Confederate Soldiers and 22 confederate civilians) were
moved to Greenlawn Cemetery to Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis,
Indiana.  The names of the soldiers are to be found in Garfield Park in
