Calvin Lloyd

Enlisted from Walnut Township, Polk County, Sept. 26, 1861; age, twenty-seven; a native of Indiana. Died at St. Louis — date unknown to me.

Says Captain Studer: —

"A good man. Was taken sick after the battle of Shiloh; fought bravely there. A very stern, steady man; had little to say; of firm and determined nature; faithful and dutiful."
