- The Shiloh National Cemetery wasn't developed until 1866 so those buried at Shiloh Battlefield were reinterred at the Shiloh National Cemetery, which is why it shows buried at Shiloh National Cemetery, Pittsburg Landing, Tennessee (which was the location of Shiloh Battlefield) Diss-96 18:59, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- FaG shows that Alkana had 12 children to include Adaline Malone and I don't see any census records with her name (1850-1880). I will limit it to 11 known children Diss-96 18:59, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
