413 PETER BRUNER (BROONER): Was widely known as a bear hunter and was the best shot in the region. He wore buckskins with fringed pants and the long, loose belted hunting shirt of a pioneer. His sunken mouth, pinched red nose and jutting eyebrows were framed by a square beard and a square, high skinny forehead. He preferred to speak German rather than English. Sometime before 1816, Peter and Nancy Rusher Brooner settled in Spencer County, Indiana. After their settlement there, Thomas and Nancy Hanks Lincoln settled about one quarter of a mile and became the Brooner's nearest neighbors. Abraham Lincoln became friends with all the Brooner children, but especially with Allen Brooner. Nancy Hanks Lincoln and Nancy Rusher Brooner died about the same time, from the Milk Sickness and were buried beside each other. Nancy Rusher Brooner died before Nancy Hanks Lincoln.

The Brooners and the Lincolns attended the Primitive Baptist Church which was located about a mile from their cabins. Thomas Lincoln was a Deacon in that church. Abraham never became a member, although he attended.

Peter Brooner was a Jacksonian Democrat but Abraham Lincoln was not. Even though Peter Brooner held different political views and was dull and humorless, Abraham Lincoln liked him. He never forgot that Peter Brooner had stood beside his mother's grave in 1818. When Tomas Lincoln remarried to Sarah Bush, Peter attended the small party at the Lincoln cabin.

Sometime after 1818, Peter Brooner married Susan Miller. He was sick often with the "shakes" and Sarah Bush Lincoln often looked in on him.

427 Phillip Catt 1740-1844 vs Scratch CattPosted by: dr. w cary anderson (ID *****2183)Date: December 20, 2002 at 09:40:28 of 504
I am sure most of you have seen Scratch used in connection with Phillip Catt (1740-1844). I wish I had listened more carefully and had more time to visit back in 1968 when I first visited in Knox/Gibson/Pike Cos., IN. There were several quite active researchers on the Catt family at that time and were extremely knowledgeable. Unfortunately, none of these ever published their material. Where it is today is not known to me. However, I do recall remarks being made that Scratch was used because Phillip couldn't read or right. Well, there is a document with an X on it. Considering the age of Phillip at that time, it may have been all he coud do to make the mark. Earlier, when he signed his pension application. He used PC as his mark. At that time he was about 82. I have found his brother George Catt could write. i have found his name in English as George Catt and in German script as Georg Katz. I did not pay as much attention as I should have to Michael and John's records. I imagine there are those that were signed. If anyone has such, I'd like to know if they used a mark or signed their name.

I have never found Scratch in any of the records that pertain to Phillip Catt (1740-1844). I was somewhat shocked to see that Scratch was included on his government tombstone. It was done basically, I am sure, to distinguish him from the several other Phillip Catts.

I have never used Scratch in referring to Phillip Catt (1740-1844). I recall hearing one lady talking about it and explaining that there were so many Phillip Catts that since the old one signed with an X, he had been dubbed Scratch. She was giggling and made it sound really funny. I later found out she wasn't even related. When there are several of the same name, we do use various methods of keeping them separate. I am afraid that Scratch was used so long by these folks, that a lot of people have come to believe that was the actual nickname of Phillip Catt (1740-1844). I'd like to see an effort made to use Phillip Catt without the misnomer. I like to think he turns over in his grave everytime someone uses that scratch.

478 Regimental History
Twenty-fifth Infantry INDIANA
(3 years)


Twenty-fifth Infantry. Cols.,James C. Veatch, William.,H. Morgan Tames S. Wright; Lieut.-Cols., William H. Morgan, John W. Foster John Rheinlander, James S. Wright, William H.
Crenshaw; Majs., John W. Foster, John Rheinlander, John T. Walker, Victor C. Larkin, James S. Wright, William H. Crenshaw, James T. Reed.

This regiment was organized at Evansville in July 1861, and was mustered in Aug. 19. It left the state Aug. 26, and was in camp at St. Louis until Sept. 14, moving from there to
Jefferson City and thence to Georgetown.

It marched to Springfield with Fremont's forces and back to Otterville 240 miles, in 16 days. It remained in the vicinity of Otterville until December, when it moved with Pope's
division south of Warrensburg, forming part of the force that captured 1,300 of the enemy at Blackwater. The 25th guarded the prisoners to St. Louis and went into Benton Barracks until Feb. 2, 1862.

It was sent with the expedition against Fort Donelson and joined in the first attack, losing 16 killed and 80 wounded. It was part of the force which stormed and captured the outer
works the next day and occupied the fort after its surrender.

It left for Pittsburg landing on Mar. 5, reaching there on the 18th and in the battle of Shiloh, lost 27 killed and 122 wounded. Col. Veatch was appointed brigadier-general on April 28, and Lieut.-Col. Morgan succeeded him as colonel.

The regiment was in the siege of Corinth and on June 10 occupied Grand Junction. It moved for Memphis July 17 and remained there until Sept. 6, engaged in scouting and hunting guerrillas. It then occupied Bolivar until Oct. 4, when it moved with Hurlbut's division to cut off Price and Van Dorn, meeting their forces at Hatchie River and engaging in a short but fierce battle, in which the regiment lost 3 killed and 76 wounded.

It then moved to northern Mississippi, and six companies under Col. Morgan were stationed at Davis' Mill on Wolf River where they were attacked by Van Dorn with a large force of mounted infantry. They fought so fiercely that the enemy was
compelled to leave the field, after losing 23 killed, many wounded and some prisoners. The remaining four companies were distributed along the line of railroad from Grand Junction to Holly Springs.

The regiment was on provost duty at Memphis from Jan. 14, until Nov. 1863, then guarded the railroad between Grand Junction and Moscow until Jan. 28, 1864 and then joined Sherman's army on the raid through Mississippi to Meridian and return.

It reenlisted at Canton, Miss., Feb. 19, 1864 and at the expiration of its furlough proceeded to Decatur, Ala., where it remained until Aug. 4, participating in several skirmishes with Roddey's cavalry. It joined the 4th division, 16th corps, before Atlanta, and was actively engaged in the siege from Aug. 8 to ,26.

It was in the engagement at Jonesboro joined in pursuit of Hood's army, attacked and routed the enemy at Snake Creek Gap, then returned and accompanied the army to Savannah, and participated in the investment of that city. It remained in that vicinity until Jan. 4, 1865, when it moved with the 11th corps to Beaufort, S. C. going from there to Pocotaligo.

It moved on the 30th for Goldsboro, N. C., being engaged at Rivers' Bridge, Binnaker's bridge, Fayetteville and Bentonville. It reached Goldsboro March 24, marched thence to Raleigh, and after Johnston's surrender started for Washington which place was reached on May 17.

The regiment was then transferred to Louisville and was mustered out at that place, July 17, 1865. Its original strength was 1,052; gain by recruits, 681; reenlistments, 282; total, 2,015. Loss by death, 307; desertion, 56; unaccounted for, 235.

Shiloh after battle report:

Report of Maj. W. Foster, Twenty-fifth Indiana Infantry.

HDQRS. TWENTY-FIFTH REGT. INDIANA VOLS.
Pittsburg, Tenn., April 11, 1862
SIR: Early on the morning of Sunday, April 6, 1862 in conformity with your orders, the Twenty-fifth Indiana Regt. of Volunteers was marched out of its quarters and took its position in the brigade. It immediately accompanied the brigade beyond Brig.-Gen. Hurlbut's quarters, and took position on the edge of the field used as the review ground, on the center of the line of the army, the right of theTwenty-fifth Indiana joining the Fourteenth Illinois, and the left supporting a battery of artillery which was firing upon the enemy beyond the field. After remaining in this position for nearly an hour the forces which were engaging the enemy were driven back from our front,and a large part of the retreating column passed directly through our lines, but the regiment continued unbroken and presented as steady a front as the receding forces would allow. Just at this time, as we were beginning to receive the heavy fire of our enemy on our front and left,
your order was received to change our front to the rear on the left company, and 100 yards back from our first position, in order to meet a large force of the enemy which was moving rapidly forward in that direction with the intention of flanking your brigade.

The regiment executed this movement in good order and coolness under a very heavy fire of musketry and artillery on our left, and hardly had our regiment taken its position when the immense double columns of the enemy were fairly in view, emerging from the timber and thick undergrowth. The order was given immediately to lie down. It had
hardly been executed when the enemy opened upon us one continual blaze of musketry along our whole line and on the right and left of it. The deadly volley passed harmlessly over us. With great alacrity and order the regiment rose and poured in upon the enemy volley after volley, which was most terrible upon their close columns, staggering
them in their rapid and successful advance; but our attempt to give a permanent check to their progress was unavailing. The regiments on our right were beginning to waver and fall back, and the enemy had completely outflanked us on the left, and were pouring in upon us a heavy cross-fire. There was no alternative except to fall back or be
completely surrounded by the overwhelming numbers attacking us. Hardly had Lieut. Col. William H. Morgan given the order to fall back when he received a severe flesh wound in the leg, which disabled him, and he was reluctantly carried from the field. His
absence during the remainder of the engagement was a severe loss, as it threw the entire responsibility of the command upon me, and deprived the regiment of his military skill and courage.

The regiment fell back in as good order as the thick undergrowth and deadly fire of the enemy would permit for about 100 yards, when, taking advantage of a slight depression in the surface of the ground, I planted the flag against a fallen tree and called upon the men to rally to their colors, which they did with a readiness and coolness which saved
the regiment from entire dismemberment and perhaps annihilation. I was in my proper position on the left wing, and did not see Col. Morgan fall, who was on the right and entirely concealed by the undergrowth, and therefore supposed he had drawn off the right companies; but, in his absence, the several captains collected their
men, and, as soon as they could ascertain our position, joined me with a large portion of their commands. In this engagement our loss was very heavy. Lieut. Henry L. Brickett, commanding Company C, was mortally wounded, and died in a few minutes, refusing to be carried from the field. Lieut. Jesse Patterson, of Company G, was mortally
wounded, and died in a few hours. Both of these were noble men, faithful officers, and brave soldiers. Lieut. Fellows, of Company H, and Second Lieut. Darling, of Company B, were severely wounded while bravely encouraging their men. Sixteen of our dead were taken from this bloody field.

By the time I had rallied my battalion and placed it in order Col. Hall, of the Fourteenth Illinois, on our right, had, succeeded in halting and collecting his regiment, and upon consultation we thought it advisable to withdraw our men and shelter them from the heavy fire of the enemy until we could communicate with you for further orders. I
notified your aide, Lieut. Bruner, of our position, when we directly received your order to come to the assistance of Gen. McClernand's division on the right. By your order I took position on the brow of the hill on the right of the Fourteenth Illinois, and threw forward pickets on the side of the opposite hill, to observe the movements of the enemy.
Here we remainder until we received your order to advance to the hill on the left, but it soon became necessary to change our position, as directed by you, to the timber skirting the field occupied by the cavalry camp, to protect another flank movement of the enemy, in heavy force, both on the right and left, supported by a large force of cavalry on the
right, attempting to get into our rear.

Here we took our position and threw out pickets in front, in charge of Capt. Rheinlander, to draw the fire of the enemy and ascertain their advancing position. While the heavy firing was going on the right, our regiment lay well concealed directly in front of the approaching columns of the enemy. While you sent the Fourteenth Illinois around to
their flank, and just as our pickets had well attracted their fire, we moved around quietly from the enemy's front to support the Fourteenth Illinois, which was pouring its well-directed volleys on their flanks. We had just taken an excellent position, where we must certainly, with the aid of the Fourteenth Illinois, have driven the enemy back or cut them
off in this locality, when the tide of battle, which had been raging with such ferocity for eight continuous hours on the left and center, gave way, and our receding troops came back and passed the road directly in our rear, while the enemy followed them very closely, pouring in a deadly fire on the retreating masses. I was cut off from you by this
receding movement, and as I could receive no orders from you. I saw nothing left for me to do but reluctantly to withdraw from the advantageous ground occupied, and do all I could to check the enemy's advance by throwing my regiment in the rear of our forces receding from the center and fall back in order. The regiment executed this
movement with steadiness and courage, and though exposed to a very severe cross-fire I brought it off without wavering and unbroken, and assisted with my force in forming the line of broken regiments and detachments to stay the enemy's advance nearer toward the Landing, which point they seemed determined to reach.

It was in this last cross-fire that one of our bravest young officers. Sergt. Maj. William Jones, fell, severely wounded. He had acted with great courage and firmness at the storming of Fort Donelson, and during the whole of this day he was always active and fearless in assisting me in every command.

Night was now closing in, and our men, tired, exhausted, and hungry, lay down on the field in the line of battle formed by the Fourth Division for the defense of the Landing, and rested on their arms during the heavy rain-storm of that night.

Early next morning we formed again with our brigade and advanced to support our forces, which had attacked and were slowly but steadily driving back the enemy. During the forenoon we kept close behind our advancing column, ready to offer support to any of our wavering flanks. In the afternoon I received your order to move rapidly forward
to the center and form with the brigade for the final charge upon the enemy. Taking our position in the line, we moved forward in double-quick in fine order, hoping to give the last charge to the flying rebels; but when had passed beyond our outposts and on to the hill the enemy had gone too far for us to reach them, and the pursuit was given
over to the cavalry.

I cannot bestow too much praise upon the brave conduct of both officers and men of my command during this long and hard-fought battle. They were called out in the early morning of Sunday so unexpectedly that they had hardly completed their breakfast, and left without haversacks, and in very many cases without canteens, and remained on the open field during the two days with nothing to eat but a few crackers. At no
time during the battle did the men show signs of fear or despondency. The rallied promptly to the colors at my call after the first bloody repulse, and never again during either day did they leave them or fail to obey my commands, even under the most deadly fire. By this steadiness and precision in all their movements they well earned the
name of veteran soldiers. I am greatly indebted to Capt.'s Rheinlander, Walker, and Poole for the promptness with which they brought their commands together after the first repulse and for the readiness with which they seconded all my commands during the hard
fighting of Sunday, and to all the officers who were with me during both days for their coolness, promptness, and courage. Without them my efforts would have been unavailing.

Capt. George W. Saltzman, of Company A, became separated from the regiment after the first repulse, being on the extreme right, and covered entirely with the thick undergrowth. After vainly seeking for the regiment he went into the thickest of the battle on the left, joining the Sixteenth Wisconsin, and there, bravely fighting for his country, was shot through the heart. The regiment contained no more upright and faithful officer or purer patriot than he. Lieut. Boren acted as adjutant, and was faithful in executing every order.

Surgeon Walker and Chaplain Heuring were in the hottest part of the field, active in their work of attention to the wounded.

Assistant-Surgeon White was at his post at the hospital. The band rendered valuable service in carrying off the wounded and ministering to their wants. Quartermaster Foster kept us supplied with ammunition, and secured all our regimental papers and baggage from the reach of the invading enemy.

Our loss of killed, wounded, and missing is 149, a list of which I attach to this report.*

Respectfully submitted.

BUNNER, Henry (I329)
 
479 REV. ALLEN BROONER, farmer and stock-raiser, was born October 22,1813, in Breckenridge County, Ky., and when only one year old, was brought by his parents, Peter and Nancy (Rusher) Brooner, to Indiana Territory. They located near the present site of Lincoln City, in Spencer County, and there, resided many years, undergoing all the hardships and perils of frontier life. Peter Brooner was a typical pioneer, a widely known bear hunter, a hardy, resolute man and a good citizen. He died in 1855, preceded by his wife in 1818. Allen Brooner was raised by his parents to manhood. His schooling was principally obtained in a round log-cabin, wide fire-place, with stick and mud chimney, puncheon for seats, and greased paper for window lights.

About 1835 he went to Illinois, where he worked around for a year and a half, when he returned to Indiana, and for one year worked at grist-milling in Warrick County. In 1838 he began farming in Dubois County, and continued there seventeen years.

488 Rose Lindy was interred in Lot 2 of Section 6939 on 06/26/1947. There is a marker on the grave. To locate grave, she is in the semi circle by our Normandie entrance. Look for curb number 6937 (cement curb markers which go around the park) Walk back 4+ rows into the semi circle and then look for her marker. Section 6937 is an irregular section, thus the 4+ rows designation.
