On July 4, 1862, Private Leonard Peaslee vanished from the U.S. General Hospital in Annapolis, Maryland. No discharge. No death record. No trace. His disappearance shattered his family: his wife, Cornelia, and their infant daughter slid into poverty, denied a widow’s pension because no one could prove Leonard was gone. More than 163 years later, this episode of Company D follows the trail he left behind and uncovers the mystery of what became of Leonard Peaslee.
