It will be seen that Carroll County was " some military," even at that early day.

WAR RECORD OF
CHAPTER XX. WAR RECORD OF CARROLL COUNTY.
THE author has been at great pains to give the names of all the officers and soldiers of Carroll County, who served in the war of 1846, and also 1861. He is aware that the list is not complete, for the reason that very many of our people volunteered in companies organized in other counties, and are credited to the counties in which they enlisted.
It would have afforded the author great pleasure to have given a history of the various regiments and com- panies organized in Carroll County ; but he has already far exceeded the limits originally designed for his book, and he is compelled reluctantly to forbear.
DYSON BOOTHROYD, a young soldier in the three months' service, a member of Company "A," of the Ninth Regiment, Indiana Volunteers, who was killed in Western Virginia, on the 13th day of July, 1861, is believed to have been the first Union soldier killed after the commencement of the war. He was brought back by his comrades, and buried in the old Delphi grave-yard, with the honors of war. A monument should be erected, by a grateful people, to his memory.
