Colonel James Brown FormanColonel James Brown Forman
He is Colonel James Brown Forman. He was from Louisville, Kentucky. He was referred to as the Boy Colonel by Gen. Rosecrans because he was only 19 when promoted from Captain to Colonel for heroism at the Battle of Perryville, Ky, where he rallied the regiment to a victory. I will send his full story along later. Let me know if you get the photo. He was Union, 15th Ky. Inf. He was killed in action at MurfreesboroDec.31, 1861, only two weeks after his 20th birthday.
