This is an outline of research results—census records, military records, etc.—that tell the story of the life of Nathan Bradshaw. We were compiling this information to track down the grave sites of the men of the 11th OVC. Hope you can use the information. Soldiers on the Overland Trail get little recognition for their hard work.
