Notes |
- He died when a large boulder he was burying fell upon him and crushed him. He removed early in life to N. Adams, MA, and thence to Steuben County, NY. At the age of 20 years he went to California in 1849, and again at the age of 23 by way of the Isthmus of Panama. In 1859 he made a trip to Pike's Peak, CO.
He enlisted at Canedea, NY on 13 Sept, 1864, in Company B, 189th NY Infantry Regt. and was discharged May 31, 1865 at Washington, DC. He then moved to MI and lived four years in Bulford township, Calhoun Co., near the city of Battle Creek, afterward moving to a farm in Pennfield in the same county. He was a member of the Methodist Church.
He was wounded during the Civil War.
