Family Timeline

Notes:    Legrand has been a very hard person to track down. We finally know without a doubt that he joined the confederate army at Camp Burnett for the length of the war or 3 years, and served with the 4th Kentucky Infantry. He was detailed to hospital duty in Bowling Green, Ky. He received an early discharge for Pulmonary Consumption, on July 28, 1862.
   We find him in Pa. in the 1870 census, and he is listed in the 1871-2 Allegheny City, Pa. directory as being a Carpenter living at 148 Ridge Ave. and then he disappeared, never to be heard from again. With the new information, it is obvious that he must have died or had an accident and died. Where he is buried is still a mystery. We continue to search around Allegheny City, Pa.
