ELDRIDGE family - David P. Eldridge served as captain in the 7th Kansas Volunteer Cavalry. When his wife, Alvira, died sometime during the Civil War, he took his son, David P. Eldridge Jr., into the army with him to serve as a bugler in Company G of the 7th Kansas Volunteer Cavalry. They also had 3 daughters --Susan, Sarah, and Lydia. In the 1860 census, David Jr. was reported to be 10 years old and his 3 sisters were reported to be 7,4,3. David Sr. and Alvira are thought to be buried in Pleasanton. Any information about David Sr., Alvira or any of their daughters will be appreciated.

I am the great granddaughter of David Eldridge Jr. and have information about him after he was mustered out of the army at Fort Leavenworth and eventually migrated to Montana & Idaho. I am very interested in information about his and his father's service in the army during the Civil War.
