      Hi Karen – We only list those soldiers who were living in northwestern Wisconsin (Pierce, St. Croix, and Polk counties) when they enlisted or were drafted. We give you a link to the full company roster to find other members yourself, which you already have. I see in the roster that he is listed as being from Prairie du Chien when he enlisted in Company H–and we only listed Company G because that was the only company in the 50th with a lot of men from northwest Wisconsin.
