Walter Clifford
1842-1865

Walter Clifford's name is on the back side of the same tombstone marker shared 
with his Father - Elijah M. Clifford, and his half brother - Burt Clifford.
The tombstone was sheared off at the top and the only WAL and FORD is visable 
in a semi-circle.  

Additional Comments:
For many years, this marker for Walter Clifford went unnoticed. There is no 
marker for military service. He was a Civil War Veteran and died at the age of 
23, shortly after returning home from the war.  He enlisted on Aug. 9, 1862 in 
Ionia, MI at the age of 19.  He served with Michigan 21st Infantry, Comp. D.  
Walter mustered out in Washington DC on June 8, 1865.  He died on Dec.1, 1865 
and it is not known where or how he died.
