Good Morning Sandy!
Alexander Campbell Plummer #8088 (my#) b 1842 Lewis Co.KY, m Susan Brooks 8 Jan 1846 Lewis Co.,KY. He is s/oThomson Plummer Sr #49. He enlisted in Grand Army 20 Aug 1862. d 7 Feb 1863 Jackson Co.,IN. (page 92 "The Thomas and Elizabeth (Smith) Plummer family" by Winkelman & Honeyman, which I consider the real authority on this family.
While some of the facts are different, persons & family shifted around a lot in those days. Also notice that Alexander's father name is Thompson. You mentioned Louise THOMSON in your notes. The date of Muster is the same. I have all of the thousands of Plummers listed in the book & more & I have no other Alexander Plummer that so nearly fits. Contact me at [email protected] if you need more details
