Check out the history of Denis Buckley on the net. His Medal of Honor was earned posthumously at Battle of Peech Tree Creek during Civil War. He is buried there at the Marietta National Cemetry.

As a CW follower, have you visited Marietta National cemetery. Therein is a new stone unveilded just a few years ago to Canadian born CW MOH recipient Denis Buckley, who's grave had the wrong name on it for over 140 years. Lots on net about it.

Have you any reliocs of the Battle of Peach Tree Creek, where Buckley was killed?
