Notes:
I just received a letter from Carl V. Larson : Sent to him by Norman Erekson Then on to June Bosworth and on to me. Grand Info. YOUR QUESTION CONCERNING MARK ALFRED CHILD BEING A MEMBER OF THE MORMAN BATTALION CAN BE ANSWERED AS FOLLOWS. 1. He enlisted in the Army at Fort Leavenworth in 1844. 2. He went overland to Mexico with General Kearney as one of his staff. 3. General Kearneyleft Fort Leavenworth before the Morman Battalion arrived there. 4 Being on Gen Kearney's staff would have put him in an entirely different battalion other then the Morman Battalion. When his time was up and he was released, He chose to remain in Caligornia and he and others wee kille by Indians at Ripper or Pepper (California??) 5. His timing was such that he had no connection with the Morman Battalion and could not have been a member thereof. He did indeed serve in the Mexican war . 6. He was not paid through the Morman Battalion staff. There is no record of them having paid him. For this reason and for the reason that his name does not occur on any of the promary Morman Battalion records. You will find him, however, on the Mexican War Records which are on file with the United States National Archives in Washington D. C.
