Although tradition holds that Andrew served in the Civil War, his actual service and the circumstances surrounding his death has proved elusive.
An Andrew Hayden enlisted as a private, 12 Oct 1861. He enlisted in Company B, 10th Infantry Regt of KY on 21 Nov 1861. This Andrew died 8-22-1864 at Chattanooga ,Tennessee. In a company history, he is listed as: age 21, height 5'8", eyes brown, hair light, born Marion County, Kentucky, Occupation Farmer. Since this Andrew Jackson Haden would have been in his mid-40's, this is obviously a different and younger man.
