I am interested in the above named individual, who is reported to have died in a skirmish with confederate forces in 1864. My great-grandfather, Pat Fogerty of Greensburg, PA, received a letter from the War Dept. in the 1930's regarding this individual. He is believed to be the brother of my great great-grandfather, Martin Fogerty (Pat's father), also of Greensburg. While Pat and family used the E spelling (Fogerty), it appears that in the 1850's, both spellings were used.
