Martin U. (or V.) Dulin

(Abt, 1842 - February 8, 1863)

Martin U. Dulin was in the Battle of Murfreesboro, Tennessee, a desperate inconclusive battle fought on a desolate frozen field. The sound of the musket fire was deafening, the Confederates charging across a cotton field stopped to pluck raw cotton to stuff in their ears. Martin was taken prisoner and died of a gun shot wound. (Edith Wood Grissom in "Dulin-Owen" in EASTLAND COUNTY HISTORY, 1989, page 164.)

Martin Dulin never married.
