Notes |
- Military file National Archives Lists him as a Sergeant I Company 40th Indiana Infantry. Enlisted LaFayette IN, resided Covington IN. Wounded at Mission Ridge. I make the decision to list him as a husband of Mary Ann due to the mention in the Hershberger book of her marriage to a Drollinger killed in the Civil War. I find no Drollingers in the Roll of Honor.
Francis M Trullinger did enlist @ age 21 in Capt Blake's Co 40th Reg Indiana Inf which became Copany I 40th IN The notation on the muster roll dated June 30 1864 is Killed June 14; in front of Pine Mountain GA. The company descriptive book has him as 21, 5 feet 8 inches, complexion light, eyes blue, hair light. Residence Covington, Fountain County IN. Discharged Feb 15 1864 remustered as a veteran volunteer. GLD
Fountain County, Indiana Index to Marriage Record 1848 - 1920 Inclusive Volume I Letters A - G Inclusive Name: John Cranmore Spouse: Mary A Drollinger Marriage Date: 19 Jan 1868 Date: Book: 6 OS Page: 4??
(Interestingly, this information lists her name as "Mary A. Drollinger". And according to a note by Gordon L. Drollinger (ref General Note for Francis M. Trullinger), she was possibly married to a Francis M. Trullinger. Now, if Francis was also known as "Drollinger" and Mary therefore, carried the "Drollinger" surname and if she was FIRST married to Francis before her marriage to John Cranmore and continued to carry her first married name of "Mary A. Drollinger", that could explain why she is listed in this excerpt above as "Mary A. Drollinger" versus her maiden name of "Mary Ann Hershbuerger". DHD
