Newton B. Griffin was the son of Winston & Susan Griffin.  Born in 1845 he 
joined the 62nd IL regiment during the Civil War when it returned to Edgar 
Co., IL. for leave in 1863. This was the same unit his brother James Leonard 
Griffin had joined earlier.  The unit then proceeded to Pine Bluff AK where he 
died, like most Civil War soldiers, of an unknown illness on 9/28/1864.  He is 
buried at the National Cementery along with other men from the 62nd in Little 
Rock, AK.  He was only 19.
