The statements are too difficult to verify. Don Carlos Buell (1818-98) is the nearest name that I saw. He served under Generals Taylor and Scott. Superslum 07:00, 1 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

--Robert 14:46, 1 May 2006 (UTC)This is not Don Carlos Buell. The person is a veteran of the Mexican-American War and the American Civil War. The obituary can be found on the website BrooklynEagle.com. I believe the listing of Mexican-American War veterans is a contribution which is a nice addition to Wikipedia. There will be some overlap with Civil War veterans. But General Levi Clark Booles is not the same man as Don Carlos Buell, who reinforced General Sherman at Shiloh.[reply]

I am discarding the POV tag. The article should be "Wikified" into categories by using the standard method, an example of which looks this way: Category:1799 births|Booles, General Levi Clark (which is then inclosed in doubled brackets by placing a pair of brackets at the fore and this opposed type -->]] after the name of the individual).

I am avoiding the article because I do not have any information on the person, such as place of birth and place where educated. When did he graduate? I would like to know if he attended the Military Academy at West Point, New York. Except for George Washington, (born in 1732 when schools were not available), Army generals have been college graduates, so there is a "track record" on all of them.

Superslum suspected that the article was improper. Superslum has expired, so I looked into the facts (because he can only R.I.P.). A publication at Cornell titled The War of the Rebellion (50+ volumes) exists. Volume #27 mentioned Capt. Levi C. Bootes (page 10, Image #30 of 1184).

There is a rule in the "super-slum" that I live in: Don't start me to lying. Rumor mongers tend to imagine and speak information which is repeated by other people. Thus a "buzz" results. Superslum 08:15, 2 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A very well-known search engine produced several connections to Levi Clark Bootes. GhostofSuperslum 06:20, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Added more text

I filled out the biography somewhat with additional information, as well as added cats. I linked this to the Gettysburg Union order of battle article, although there are no other articles that reference Bootes. Scott Mingus 20:06, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

See: The War of the Rebellion, Volume XXVII, Page #1079 and Page #639

Some of the Reports are made more than once using different wording each time. Levi Clark Bootes made only one report. It is on page #639. Velocicaptor 02:16, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

He made only one report in the Gettysburg Campaign; yet , he made a report earlier in September, 1862, that was related to Antietam. Velocicaptor 16:46, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
