Thanks for replying.
I found some info on Ancestry.com about him... his birth is 11 Jan 1833 in Gettinger, Hanover, Germany, and his death as 11 July 1912 in Edwardsville, Illinois (shoemaker). Wife: Dorothea Langreder, 10 children. He was wounded at the Battle of Chickamauga in 1863 and at the Battle of Resaca in 1864. He is buried in Woodlawn Cemetery in Edwardsville.
Unfortunately, I can find no connection to my St. Louis Hartungs. I have since found out that my ancestors were only living in Hannover a short time (from 1866 to 1881). Before that they came from a small town called Berlingerode in Thuringia.
