Hello Judy,I was researching my family history and ran accross Leander and Lemuels civil war info. Leander T. Ruckmanand Lemuel F. Ruckman enlisted into the Lt. RWP Mooney's Lafayette County Company #3 VMM on March 20, 1865 and were mustered out on July 4 1865. They enlisted in Lexington Missouri. Leander was 16 years old and Lemuel was 19 years old. I remember seeing a civil war photo of these two on the internet but will have to try to backtrack what site I was on. If I can find it I will let you know.
You can view the muster card by going to: www.sos.mo.gov/archives/soldiersenter the last name in the search, click on view details and then view records, a window will load the actual copy of the pdf file.
Good luck with your search!Stan
