Reread T.M. Cooley's cw papers and found it was Benton Barracks not Barton.
It was located near St. Louis.

Has anyone found Thomas Marion Cooley on any other census other than the
1850? Since he enlisted in Macon county, MO for the CW, I have tried the
index for all kinds of spellings for 1860 with no luck. Also, I have tried
anywhere and everywhere and have come up empty. Do you suppose that he
might have died after being muster out in Nashville, TN? He had been in the
hospital for a month with pneumonia. Where is Barton Barrack Hospital?
Questions, questions.
