Hello cousin,
My grandfather was Robert Morris Ferguson, his wife was Edna
Olson. Ruben Turner Ferguson was his father, and my great- grandfather.Reuben was born3/17/1842 in Woodsonville, Ky and died 2/8/1871, Warren. IL.
He, and Duncan, served in the Civil War.I have some info as I began researching in 194- something.
Reuben and Duncan did not have an argument, my g-grandfather
changed his name on the recommendation of the recruiter when he enlisted.All of his siblings retained the spelling of Fergusson. No "a".
The book The Battle Rages Higher, by Kirk Jenkins lists my g-grandfather, Reuben on page 349.
Hope this helps in your research.
Cordially,
Janice Ferguson McClung
