Company D, 125th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry.
After surviving the Battle of Antietam, Pvt Stoner died during enlistment.
Location of interment is unknown, but the Regiment was camped in Pleasant Valley, situated between Elk and South Mountains, Maryland, during late 1862. The Regiment also moved back and forth, to and from, Maryland Heights. These locations are within the southernmost tip of Washington County, MD.
"Christian E" is plausible as an alternative given name. Contributor Mrs Bee finds "Christian E" at
Registers of Deaths of Volunteers, Pennsylvania P-S, image 113, at Fold3. The military history and DoD provided by this record is consistent:
Co D, 125th PA, died 12 Dec 1862. Cause of death is shown as typhoid, location as "12 A C Hospl Va." A reasonable interpretation of the abbreviated "12 A C Hospl Va" is "12th Army Corps Hospital, Virginia"
An 1860 Census record from Blair County is consistent with "Christian":

A handwritten muster roll at the PA Historical & Museum Commission lists him as "Chas. A Stoner" with an age of 18 at the time of muster (summer of 1862). It is not uncommon for a young man of age 16 or 17 to fib about his age at enrollment.
The 125th Regimental History provides a few more specifics. RH p. 111-112:
"When in and around Pleasant Valley, and on the Heights, many of the regiment became sorely afflicted with chronic diarrhea, and several of the comrades during the fall sickened and died. Charles A. Stoner [among several listed] were of those who died either in camp there [at Pleasant Valley] or at the hospital"
"Indeed, the soldiers who were attacked with this miserable disease, the most of them at least, never fully recovered from the effects it produced."
RH p. 307, muster roll, provides the name as "Chas. A Stoner"
