Personnel from the 27th Iowa Infantry
Who were killed at Pleasant Hill, LA
April 9, 1864

 

Note 1st source is the report of casualties at Pleasant Hill by Colonel James I. Gilbert.  Other source is the Report of the Adjutant General and Acting Quartermaster General of the State of Iowa, January 1, 1865 to January 1, 1866:

I also used the roster to determine whether the soldier survived the wounds, was discharged due to the wound, or remained with the company.

8/8/65 is when the rest of the company was mustered out and indicates to me that they were with the company at discharge.
