CIVIL WAR Pvt. William J. Stevenson Co. D. 22 C. V. I.

Question

Private William J. Stevenson was born about 1845 and died November 28, 1920 at the age of 75. See F.A.G. Link. He is a civil war veteran of the 22nd Connecticut Vols Company D and is buried in Wethersfield Village Cemetery. We need help adding sources to connect him to the wikitree family and adding his civil war records. I took photos of his gravestone to help in his genealogy research.

Needs Enlistment and Muster our dates?

Thank you

Answer 2

I did some quick research on FamilySearch and Ancestry. I found census records and death records, but no birth records or marriage records. Hopefully someone else can find them one day. I added the sources to the profile.
