Biography
Civil War 123 Illinois Inf Co G (Corporal) M539 Roll 28 National Park Service. U.S. Civil War Soldiers, 1861-1865 [database on-line]. Provo, UT, USA: Ancestry.com Operations Inc, 2007. Original data: National Park Service, Civil War Soldiers and Sailors System, online <https://www.nps.gov/civilwar/>, acquired 2007.
OBIT: Christian Fasig was born in Lebanon county, Pa., July 28, 1825 and died November 18, 1901, aged 76 years, 3 months and 20 days.
He was married to Catherine Fasig January 5, 1846. To this union was born 12 children, 9 boys and 3 girls, 6 of whom have passed before.
He came to Martinsville 54 years ago and has remained here ever since. He was one of the pioneer members of the Church of God and remained a faithful adherent to her.
As a soldier he stood in his place, as a citizen he did his duty, as a father he did for his home all that could be asked, as a friend and neighbor he was honored and loved.
Death came to relieve him of trouble last Monday morning while in the hospital at Kankakee.
The body was brought home and after a short service at the home he was laid to rest in the Kettering cemetery.
Research Note
1850 census spells the last name as "Feasig"; however, the next entry on the page is a "Fasig" household. "Fasig" is the most probable spelling.

Feasig-1 and Fasig-7 appear to represent the same person because: the birth and death information match, they have the same spouse, and one son (David, duplicate files).
