Jeremiah was born in Overton Co Tennessee around 1845.    He  enlisted  November  20, 1863  at  Mt.  Vernon,
  Indiana for a three year period.   He was mustered in at Columbus, Indiana on 30  April 1864 and joined Captain
  Milner's Co 10th Regiment, Indiana Cavalry.   At  the time, he was 18 years old 5'4", dark complexion, with grey
  eyes and light  hair.  He was captured at the Battle of Nashville on 16 / 17 December 1864.   He was released and 
  was apparently on his way home on the  steamer  Sultana  on the Missisippi  River on 27 April 1865 when he was
  killed due to the explosion of  the boilers of the steamship.  His muster out record states that he was mustered out
  at Vicksburg, Mississippi on  31 August 1865  but notes that  he had  been killed by the explosion of the Sultana
  on May 18, 1865 [sic].   A  further note  states  that the final statements were sent 18 May 1865 but that he had
  been killed 27 April 1865.
