Re: Killed in Mexican War - Holmes
If your ancestor was killed in battle, he would probably be lised in the roll of honor at: http://www.dmwv.org/honoring/roh.htm . However, some soldiers were murdered and that would be published in the various newspapers of the day. Also, a lot of the soldiers died of disease during their service and as well as on their way home.
If you can narrow down the county where your ancestor joined, he may be listed in that county's history books.
Good Luck
