Civil War nurse

Ballou spent years in the union army caring for wounded soldiers. She was active during the battle of Sharpsburg, Fredericksburg, and Chancellorville. It is during battle that she met her husband, Italian immigrant Joseph Russo. Upon marriage she took the name Antonina Russo. It was her time in Sharpsburg, known in the north as Antietam, where she revolutionized the amputation process with the application of salt to disinfect the wound.
