Found a Lt. Uptegraff, from Fort Union, during the Texas
'Rebels' invasion of New Mexico at the 'Battle of
the Glorieta-Pass' 1861-- (I'm not directly related to
the Uptegraff families, although my Grandmother's sister
was married to a Uptegraff, and they lived in Portland,
Oregon, & had a son William Uptegraff...abt. 1908) But I
know from experience, as a McLaughlin Researcher--that
any "little-clue" no matter how small--will sometimes be
an 'unlocked-door' to some other researchers, if they can
only find a 'location, occupation, marriage, or military
service-record'--that discloses one hint, of what happened
to that one-ancestor--that they haven't any trace of--?!
This record of Lt. Uptegraff, is a History covering Fort
Union in New Mexico, and is accessed on the "Internet".
I did not have any other information, and was surprised
to see the name show up at 2 A.M. in the morning, as I
was reading on this site... Just trying to help--by
passing this information along, it is a part of Civil
War History... I know that Uptegraff information is
rather scarce--and hard-to-find...
