Born in 1844, John C. Fleming, an 18 year old clerk, enlisted as a private in the Chicago Board of Trade Battery, Horse Artillery, Illinois Volunteers in 1862. Fleming was enthusiastic about being a soldier, and many nearby regiments contained friends and acquaintances who he kept track of throughout the war.
