Hi,
The Foundation for Historic Preservation, http://fhphistory.org/publications.htmlhttp://fhphistory.org/publications.html might have some information or maybe microfilm of the local newspapers back in 1864.
The Historic Madison County, 122 N. Main St., Fredericktown, MO 63645 or 573-783-2722 might have some info too.
If not, contact the State Historical Society of Missouri, http://shs.umsystem.edu/newspaper/http://shs.umsystem.edu/newspaper/ who has the largest collection of newspaper on microfilm in the State. I know they look up obituaries and will probably look for articles about his death. Successful Searching!
