Notes for Asbury S. (Spouse 1)
Co K 24th IN Inf
Died of smallpox at Arsenal Island, St Louis MO
Reburied in Jefferson Barracks in 1876
"In 1876, 470 unknown Union remains were transferred from Arsenal Island in Illinois, the U.S. Army's contagious disease hospital located on an island in the Mississippi River, known during the war as "Smallpox Island." Flooding washed away the cemetery's wooden markers, making identification of the remains impossible when they were reinterred." National Park Service, www.nps.gov
Ref: Roll of Honor Vol. X
∼
Parentage unknown. Married Margaret Ryan on December 11, 1853 in Johnson, MO and had two daughters, Sarah E. (b. 1855) and Elizabeth A. (Lizzie) (b. 1859.) Died presumably of smallpox on Arsenal Island.
From the Interment Record of James H. Ahill:
"Sec. 63, 64, and 67 contain the remains of 470 soldiers all marked as unknown, removed from "Arsenal Island" in the Miss. River opposite St. Louis, MO where they died in 1861-1865 from contagious diseases, principally smallpox. The names of the decedents are known but the individual graves cannot be determined." Asbury White is included in those identified.
