Burnett Demarest, Co. C, 8th Wisc. Infantry....

Hello -

I am trying to obtain more details re the CW service of my cousin, Jacob Burnett Demarest (b. July 14, 1839 Hyde Park NY; d. Mar. 27, 1922 Rice Lake Wisc) who served as a Sgt./Lt. in Co. C, 8th Wisconsin Infantry.

I am trying to determine exactly where he might be buried in the Rice Lake area and if he indeed has a CW service marker on his grave there?

I would be VERY interested in obtaining a photo (.jpg/digital would be great!) of his grave if at all doable. I would be very happy to reimburse or reciprocate in kind here in Indianapolis!!!

Thanks very much!!!!

I am y.v.o.s.,

Kenneth Byrd
