Honoring one of the Soldiers of the 6th Hugh Flannery

             We were honored to meet a decendent of one of the boys of the 6th Battery while we were at Lone Rock June 10.  Pictured encircled above is Hugh Flannery. 1838 -1913. He was seriously injured at the Battle of Corinth Oct. 4 1862. He had been hit by shrapnel and and lost an eye and had many other body injuries including being bayonetted.  In that battle 5 were killed and 20 were wounded from the 6th.  Hugh was discharged January 1863 due to his wounds. That did not stop him. He married in 1864 and had many children.  His occupation in the 1870 and 1880 census had his occupation listed as saloon keeper. He is buried in St. Joseph's Catholic Cemetery in Avoca, Wisconsin.
