I have no connection to this family. This appeared in the May 22, 1862 issue of the Limerock Gazette (Rockland, Maine) in a column called "Letter from the 4th Maine Regiment. Camp Knox, Near West Point, Va. May 11, 1862."
"John Ham of Rockland was wounded severely in the groin, and John Cokely of Rockland had his thumb shot off and was wounded in the shoulder."
