My wife and I did a road trip last April through the places mentioned and had a great time. The graves are members of the Illinois 15th as well as Hurlbut’s grave in Belvedere, IL. Lucious Barber served the entirety of the war and spent time at Andersonville, Harley Wayne was Captain of Company D from and was killed on the first day of Shiloh. I live in northern Illinois and try to find as many veteran graves as I can, and lucky for me my wife enjoys coming along for all this stuff too now. We did Richmond three years ago and are planning another trip for next year with Vicksburg or another trip back to Richmond being the most likely. Sorry for this long boring post, but this is the only place where anyone cares about this stuff!
