George Cadman's Death

From The Railroad Wart.

George Hovey Cadman of the 39th Ohio Infantry died at Marietta, Georgia on September 17, 1864 of wounds received in the Battles Around Atlanta.He was in Company B of the 39th Ohio which consisted of many men from Marietta, Ohio.

I am still unable to find his burial site as he is not listed as being buried at the Marietta National Cemetery.  I am thinking perhaps his body was recovered from the cemetery by the railroad or perhaps it was removed back to Ohio by his family.

But at least I now have a date for his death.
