    John died during the Civil War as a union soldier. He is buried at George National Cemetery, Marietta, Ataloona, Georgia. He died of chronic diarrhea (dysentery). Notes found about this disease are as follows: "The culprit in most cases of wartime illness, however, was the shocking filth of the army camp itself. An inspector in late 1861 found most Federal camps 'littered with refuse, food, and other rubbish, sometimes in an offensive state of decomposition; slops deposited in pits within the camp limits or thrown out of broadcast; heaps of manure and offal close to the camp." As a result, bacteria and viruses spread through the camp like wildfire. Bowel disorders constituted the soldiers' most common complaint. The Union army reported that more than 995 out of every 1,000 men eventually contracted chronic diarrhea or dysentery during the war; the Confederates fared no better."

    John married Sarah BURROWS. Sarah was born Cal 1816, Bury, Lancashire, England; died 31 Dec 1887, Bethpage, Queens, New York, United States. [Group Sheet]
