APPALLING DEATH----Coroner Solon Boydston Killed at Orrville
The Fair was over, and hundreds of visitors to Orrville were at the railroad station last Friday evening waiting for trains to take them home.  It was gloomy weather, a cloudy sky and dim lights flickered here and there in the railroad yard.  Along the platform in front of the track thronged the crowd, when about 7:30 o'clock, on the platform of the C., A. & C. line, a scuffle took place between some men, which by those who saw it was supposed to be a fight.
  Just then a shifting engine came slowly along, and two of the men were knocked, thrown or fell in front of the engine, which in an instant was fatally upon them.  No one appeared to know who they were or saw exactly how it was done, and many near by saw nothing of it at all.  The engineer felt by the motion of the machine that something was wrong and promptly stopped.  The crowd rushed forward and found a man lying beside the track badly injured, the wheels having run over both legs.  He was carried to the platform where he told them another man was under the engine.  This was investigated, and on the track, wedged in between the fire box and driving wheels of the engine, was a dead body, crushed, mangled and disfigured beyond recognition.
  The injured man was removed to the Hurd House, where Dr. Grill amputated one of his legs.  He gave his name as John Sweeny, of 79 Seneca street, Cleveland, which is said not to be true.
  In the meantime the dead body, which was supposed to be that of a tramp, was placed in the baggage room at the railroad depot.  For nearly an hour it lay there while persons were looking for the County Coroner, Solon Boydston, to hold an inquest. He could not be found, and Mr. J. W. Stansbury, Mr,. Boydston's partner in the cabinet and undertaking business, had the body removed to their establishment up street.  It was placed in the undertaking room and the door locked.
  Search for Mr. Boydston was resumed.  His unaccountable absence was strange and mysterious, and now some apprehensions and misgivings were felt.  A citizen finally suggested that perhaps it was no tramp that was killed.  Full of forebodings they had Mr. Stansbury unlock the door of the undertaking room, and began an examination of the remains deposited there.  Uncovering the feet, Mr. Stansbury was horrified to recognize his partner's shoes, and in a moment more his watch, masonic pin, officer's badge and other articles, which fully established the fact that the body of Solon Boydston was before them.  The sad news was soon heralded over Orrville, creating a great shock and the saddest sorrow in the community.  D. Y. Landis, undertaker at Wooster, was that night summoned to prepare the body for the grave.
  How he came to his death is not accurately known, whether by murder or accident.  The most reliable account appears to be that during the Fair Mr. Boydston was on the police force.  In line of duty he had that evening gone with other officers to Overton's Tile Factory near the depot to disperse and arrest a lot of tramps who had taken possession in defiance of the owner's protests.  Boydston had captured the man Sweeny and was taking him to the lock up, going by way of the depot, and when in the crowd it is said that Sweeny, recognizing a confederate there, gave him a signal for assistance, and at same time struggled with Boydston to escape; but the officer held to his man and threw him on the platform, when it is said the confederate was seen to strike or push Boydston to escape; but the officer held to his man and threw him on the platform, when it is said the confederate was seen to strike or push Boydston just as the shifting engine was passing, and holding on to Sweeny he fell or was thrown in front of the engine, which in an instant crushed him to death and hurled Sweeney several feet away, injuring him as above stated.  It is reported that the alleged confederate was seen after the tragedy, but soon afterwards disappeared.  Sweeny claims that he did not know him.  Some heavy bruises were found on the back of Mr. Boydston's head, as if from blows, and not wounds inflicted by the engine.
  His age was 49 years, and at time of death he was the Coroner of Wayne county and was the candidate for second term on the Democratic ticket at the coming election.  He was well known throughout the county as a prominent citizen and business man of Orrville, a member of several Benevolent Orders, and a comrade of the Grand Army of the Republic, he having been a Sergeant in Co. A, 120th Regiment O.V.I.   As a man he was much esteemed, and few had more personal friends.  He leaves a wife and two sons and two daughters, to whom much sympathy is given.  
  The funeral, which took place Monday afternoon, was the largest ever in Orrville.  All business was suspended and the whole community attended in respect for the dead, while many came in from the surrounding country and from other towns.  The offering of flowers was very large.  The officiating ministers were Rev. Delano Jeffries, Rev. D. M. Irvin, Rev. Beck and Rev. Booth.  The burial services were conducted by Wooster Commandery Knights Templar, of which the deceased was a charter member and present also were several Knights from Massillon.  The other organizations attending in a body were the Orrville Cedar Lodge of the Masonic Order, Knights of Pythias, Grand Army Post, Fire Department, Mayor and town officers.  The pall bearers were Sir Knights Geo. W. Barrett, Fred Dysie, Dr. S.P. Grill, of Orrville, E. D. McIntire, T.H. Eiser, of Wooster and J. A. Hackett, of Massillon.

COMP, Joseph   13 Aug 1862
Private Comp was 20 when he entered service.  No other information is given.
--------------------------------------

Contributed by Joe and Jane Comp
History of Madison County, Iowa  Volume II, Dated 1915

     Joseph Comp is a retired farmer now living in Winterset but is still the owner of valuable property which affords him a generous annual income.  He was born in Wayne County, Ohio, March 12, 1842, while his parents were from Pennsylvania and his grandparents were natives of Germany.  Joseph Comp spent his boyhood days under the parental roof and attended the district schools.  He left home at the age of 21 making his way to Mercer County, Illinois, where he had an older brother living.  There he attended school for one winter, and he also worked at the carpenter's trade with his brother, being thus engaged until October, 1864 when, feeling that his duty to his country was paramount to all else, he enlisted as a member of Company I, Thirty-Sixth Illinois Volunteer Infantry, with which he served until the close of the war.  He was one of the troops recruited to fill out an old regiment and was honorably discharged in October, 1865, being mustered out at New Orleans.  He participated in the Battle of Franklin on the 30th of November, 1864, that of Nashville on the 15th and 16th of December and in various skirmishes.  He escaped without being wounded or taken prisoner and returned to his home with a creditable military record.
     When the war was over Mr. Comp again made his way to Mercer County, Illinois, and once more worked with his brother at the carpenter's trade.  Later he returned to Ohio, where he engaged in cultivating his father's farm until 1869.  He then came to Madison County and purchased 80 acres of wild prairie land in Douglas Township.  With his characteristic energy he begin to develop and improve that property and continuously followed farming for more than 41 years.  He paid $15 per acre for his original purchase, later bought 60 acres for $20 an acre and still later 160 acres at $30 per acre.
     He is today the owner of 300 acres worth $150 per acre.  Year after year he carefully tilled the soil, employing modern farming methods in the improvement of his place.  He was thus engaged until 1910 when he turned the farm over to his sons, and retired from business life, took up his abode in Winterset where he now has leisure for the enjoyment of those things which are to him a matter of interest and recreation.
     On the second of October, 1866, Mr. Comp was united in marriage in Wayne County, Ohio to Miss Savilla Johnston, a native of Wayne County, born November 13, 1843 and to them have been born six children; Ora, who died at the age of 18 years; George William, a resident farmer of Jackson Township; Walter J., who lives upon the home farm; Ira D., also a farmer of this county; Mabel, the wife of Samuel Hoeness, who carries on general farming in Jackson Township; Franklin W., who is also upon the home farm.
     Mr. Comp belongs to Pitzer Post, No. 55, G.A.R., of Winterset and greatly enjoys meeting with his old army comrades and recounting the incidents of military life in the south.  He and his wife are members of the Methodist church and their lives have been lived in accordance with it's teachings.  Mr. Comp has now passed the seventy-third milestone on life's journey and he deserves a rest which has come to him, for it is the merited outcome and reward of persistent, earnest and honorable labor.

AND his Obituary:
Joseph M. Comp was born at Smithville, Wayne County, Ohio, March 12, 1842 and died at his home in Winterset, September 6, 1919, aged 77 years , 5 months, 24 days.  When the war broke out, he was a strong young man of 22 and on October 8, 1862, he enlisted in Company I, 36th, IIIinois Voluntary Infantry.  Serving honorably until the close of the war, being discharged October 20, 1865.  On October 2, 1866 he was united in marriage to Savilla Johnston, who as a faithful and loving wife came with him to Madison County, Iowa on April 9, 1869, settling the following year on the old homestead known as "Comp's Corner", where for 45 years they labored faithfully together until January 13, 1909, when they removed to their present home in Winterset to spend the remaining days of their lives.  Mr. Comp was the father of six children, five of whom survived; George William, Walter W., Ira D., Frank W., and one daughter Mrs. S.G. Hoeness, all of this vicinity.  One daughter, Ora I. preceded her father in death twenty-eight years ago. Forty-three years ago, he was converted and united with the West Star Methodist Episcopal church, being one of the early supports and stand-bys of that organization, taking an active part in Sunday School and church work, and remaining a faithful and constant member of the  same until his death.  Coming to Iowa at an early age he helped to build up the vicinity where he lived from the primitive stage to a place of home and happiness, enduring the hardships that went with pioneer life.  Five weeks ago, he was stricken down from which he gradually sank day by day, and for some days and the end was hourly expected, yet through the whole time he was a patient and cheerful sufferer.  The deceased was a member of the Pitzer Post and the Evening Star lodges and was held in high esteem by his fellow members.  A kind and loving father, a true friend, a honorable, an upright citizen has passed from this life to the home beyond the skies eternal in the heavens.

Pension Index:  Joseph Comp was also in Company I of the 36th Illinois Infantry.  His record indicates that he used alias Joseph Miller for his service part of the time at least.  He applied for an invalid pension in Iowa in 1891 and his widow Savilla, applied for the widow's pension on 29 Sept 1919 in Iowa.

Pension Index:  Joseph M MILLER is an alias for Joseph M COMP.  Co I, 36th Illinois Inf.  and A 120th OH.  Invalid filed in Iowa in 1891.  Widow, Savilla COMP, filed in Iowa in 1919 Sep 29 or 27.

 Hardesty's Historical and Geographical Encyclopedia [Wayne county Ohio version] page 492 East Union Township section:
"Isaac D. Huntsberger enlisted at Wooster, August 20, 1862, and at Camp Mansfield, October 17th, was mustered into Company A, 120th Ohio Volunteer Infantry.  After serving at Covington, the regiment was hurried forward to Memphis, and down the Mississippi under Sherman to take part in his movement against Vicksburg.  Its first battle was Chickasaw Bayou, next Arkansas Post, where companies A and F led the storming part that swept up to the fort and took it.  Their next service was the inglorious canal digging at Youngs Point, where Mr. Huntsberger was detailed to act as orderly over those assigned from his company.  They also helped to bridge the bayou at Richmond, Louisiana. Thence moved under Grant toward Vicksburg, and at the bombarding of Grand Gulf Mr. Huntsberger was ill, and forced to remain an inactive spectator.  He rejoined his regiment in time for the battle at Thompsons Hill, but continued with the pioneer corps until Vicksburg was reached, helping to clear the obstructions for the planting of the batteries for the battles of Champion Hills, Big Black River Bridge, and for the passage of the army to the siege.  Before Vicksburg, with this corps he was digging trenches, building breastworks and planting guns.  The day the Stars and Stripes floated again over that city, was the anniversary of his birth, and will ever be considered by him the proudest day of his life. With the pioneer corps he went with Grant to Jackson, and was with the regiment when it was transferred to Louisiana, where companies A and F were still singled out for special service against bushwhackers.  When on the Red River expedition, the City Belle was run ashore at Snaggy Point, Mr. Huntsberger was one of the first to jump ashore, May 3, 1864.  He was wounded in the heel, just as he landed, and was made prisoner.  After some hours his wound was dressed, and the next day he was taken to Chaneyville prison, Louisiana, where he was held one and a half months, and saw most of those captured with him die.  He was then paroled, sent to Alexandria [Louisiana], and from there into our lines.  By New Orleans and St. Louis he returned to Columbus, and there he was discharged from the service February 10, 1865.  Jonas and Catharine (Dill) Huntsberger were parents of Isaac D., who was born in Cumberland county, PA, July 4, 1837.  In East Union township, Wayne county, Ohio, October 19, 1865, he married Elizabeth, daughter of Jacob and Anna (Gans) Kurtz.  She is a native of this township, born January 31, 1841, and their children were born here: Ira K., October 17, 1866; Harvey H., August 7, 1868; Anna E., August 24, 1870; Benjamin D., May 8, 1872; Bertha M., April 13, 1874; Elsie L., June 22, 1877; John W. and William N., August 27, 1879; Fannie G., July 22, 1883.  Farming is Mr. Huntsberger's occupation, and East Union is his postoffice address.  His brother Jonas was in service and drowned at the explosion of the Sultana in the Mississippi river.  His wife's brother, Benjamin F. Kurtz, died in the service, at Milliken's Bend, April 16, 1863."  [See Benjamin Kurtz of this company, below.]

Pension Index:  Isaac D HUNTSBERGER, A 120th OH, invalid filed 1865 Apr 25.  

Looking at the census records in 1900 I think sons Ira, John and William went west to Colorado and Kansas.  Did the whole family go west?

John R. McKinney--bade adieu to Ohio for nearly three years in the fall of 1862, and entered on the experience of a life in the field and in the enemy's country.  He enlisted at Wooster, 22 August, 1862, and at Camp Mansfield, October 14, 1862, was mustered into Company A, 120th Ohio Volunteer Infantry.  The regiment went to the front in time to take part in the two movements on Vicksburg, that under Sherman, including the battles of Chickasaw Bayou and Arkansas Post, and that under Grant, in which, a part of the 2d brigade, 3d division, 13th army corps, the 120th had its share in the fighting, and won its laurel with the victory.  In all these battles Mr. McKinney participated, and when the regiment was in Louisiana he was engaged in the battle of Richmond, then started with the regiment on the ill-fated Red River Campaign.  He was among the many captured at Snaggy Point, and he was one of the few who, after 13 months in the prison stockade at Camp Ford, Texas, were alive and able to move to the place of exchange.  His suffering in prison was like that elsewhere told in these pages [see the History section]; cold, starvation, and a cruel enemy all did their work. The exchange which released him was effected at the mouth of the Red river, and at New Orleans he took transport for St. Louis, from that city came to Columbus, and was there discharged from service, July 8, 1865. He was born in Washington county, Pennsylvania, November 12, 1843, the son of William and Jane (Ray) McKinney. He married in Ashland county, Ohio, June 2, 1870, Anna Christie, who was born in Butler county, Pennsylvania, July 16, 1846, and is the daughter of William and Elizabeth (Hall) Christie.  Their children are four living, one deceased:  William, born September 6, 1871; Fred S., February 1, 1873; Charles H., June 18, 1875; Jennie, August 13, 1878, died October 2, 1880; Laura, October 3, 1881.  Mr. McKinney has a farm in Franklin township and is also engaged in the profession of attorney.  He is a member of Given Post, No 133, G.A.R., at Wooster, and his post office address is Wooster.

Wooster Daily News, Monday, 14 April 1910, page 1:
J.R. McKinney Passes Away
Civil War Veteran Dies at Home on College Avenue on Sunday Afternoon
Another old soldier, a veteran of three years service in the Civil war, over a year of which was spent in a Rebel prison, answered the last roll call Sunday when John R. McKinney died at his home on College avenue, death coming at 8:30 p.m.
  Mr. McKinney has been in poor heath for several years, but up until the present winter he was always able to be around.  Catarrhal jaundice however, gained the upper hand after a long fight, and for several days it was seen that he could not live long.  Mr. McKinney was 65 years of age.
  He was born in Washington county, PA., November 12, 1844,[the birth year actually seems to be 1843] and came to Wayne county with his parents in his youth.  They settled on a farm in Sugarcreek township. John McKinney enlisted as a private in Judge Downing's company, the 120th Ohio Volunteer Infantry, in August, 1862, and for three years was in the service of his country.  The last thirteen months of this service, he was in a Rebel prison at Camp Ford, Tyler, Texas, he having been taken prisoner at Snaggy Point on Red river at the time of the attack on boat in which the 120th regiment was going to the relief of General Banks.  His term in prison was full of the horrors so often dedcribed, and so impossible to exaggerate.  
  Mr. McKinney took part in all of the engagements of Grant in the opening of the Mississippi and for some months before the fall of Vicksburg he was especially assigned to the Pioneer Corps and therefore was almost constantly in the front.  Comrades speak well of Mr. McKinney as a soldier.  Only eighteen when he enlisted, he was bright and active, brave, and daring and, was always in command of a detail of soldiers.
   After the war he returned to Wayne county and came to Wooster where he read law.  He was elected Justice of the Peace of Wooster township which office he filled with his characteristic effectiveness.  He practiced law in Wooster until the death of his father, who in the meantime had moved to a farm south of the city.  Then he moved on the home farm, and remained there until about ten years ago, when he returned to the city.  During recent years he has been one of the active and prominent members of Given Post, G.A.R., and was Post Commander for one term.  He served as Adjutant of the Post under several Post Commanders, and for many years has been secretary of the regimental organization of the 120th O.V.I., all of which positions, he filled very capably.  Mr. McKinney attended school at the Hayesville Academy [Hayesville is in Ashland county], and there he met Miss Anna Christy, who afterwards became his wife.  They lived together happily for many years, the wife passing away six years ago. Mr. McKinney was a member of the United Presbyterian church.  He is survived by four children, William McKinney, of Carlin, Nevada; Dr. Fred McKinney of Leetonia, O., Dr. Chas. McKinney, of Pittsburg, and Miss Laura McKinney, at home.  Funeral Tuesday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock, services in charge of Rev. Heron.

Dalton Gazette, Thursday 14 April 1910        [Died 10 Apr 1910]
Another Veteran Gone
J. R. McKinney, a civil war veteran died at his home in Wooster Sunday afternoon. Mr. McKinney was born in Pennsylvania, moving to what is know as the McDowell farm west of Dalton in 1844, where he resided till 18 years of age.  In August 1862 he enlisted in the 120th O.V.I. for three years.  After the war he took up his residence in Wooster.  During his residence in Sugarcreek township [Wayne county] he taught a term at the West Moscow school.  During his career as a soldier he spent nearly a year in rebel prison.
  Mr. McKinney was a member of the United Presbyterian church.  He is survived by four children, Wm. McKinney of Carlin, Nevada; Dr. Fred McKinney of Leetonia, O.  Dr. Chas. McKinney of Pittsburg, and Miss Laura McKinney at home.
  Funeral was held Tuesday afternoon services in charge of Rev. Heron.

Hardesty's Historical and Geographical Encyclopedia [Wayne county Ohio version] page 495, Franklin Township section:
George W. Metzler had thirty-eight months of active war experience, enlisting August 5, 1862, at Wooster, mustering into Company C, [This seems to be incorrect since he is listed with Company A in the Roster book and is not listed at all in Company C.]  120th Ohio Volunteer Infantry, at Camp Mansfield, October 10, 1862, and sharing the fortunes of the regiment until he was made prisoner, and mustering out at Columbus, Ohio, June 26, 1865.  He took part in the battles of Chickasaw Bayou, Arkansas Post, Thompsons Hill, Champion Hills, Black River Bridge, the assaults on and siege of Vicksburg, and the battle of Jackson.  He suffered at times during the service from sickness caused by drinking bad water, but was with his regiment when it embarked on the Red River expedition, acting as company clerk, to which he had been detailed for several months.  He was on of the unfortunate ones who fell into the hands of the rebels when the steamer run aground at Snaggy Point, and he suffered the horrors of Camp Ford, the Tyler county, Texas, prison pen.  These were elsewhere portrayed in this work.  He was one of the party who set up a lathe, turned themselves arrows, and headed them with old hoop iron, in a desperate determination to escape, which was discovered and stopped before reaching a head.  His brother Samuel was a member of Company C, 16th Ohio Volunteers, from its organization to its disbanding, and was twice wounded, at Chickasaw Bayou and at Jackson.  They were the two youngest sons of the fifteen children of Samuel Metzler, who was a soldier of the 1812 war.  Samuel Metzler married first in 1816, Elizabeth Zinn, who died leaving him a daughter, Mary, born in 1817.  He next married Mary Crone, who died in 1823, leaving him three children: Sarah, born in 1820; Elizabeth, 1821; John, 1822.  In Pennsylvania, in 1824, Samuel Metzler married Elizabeth, daughter of Charles and Catharine (Woods) Forbes, and lineal descendant of General Forbes, who captured Fort Pitt (now Pittsburg), from the French during the French and English war.  The eleven children of this marriage were born:  Ellen, June 6, 1825; William, March 30, 1827; Catharine, January 7, 1829; Amanda, October 2, 1830; Thomas, November 18, 1832; Ann, November 3, 1834; Sarah Jane, March 25, 1837; Samuel, September 22, 1841; George W., March 14, 1844; Malinda, March 22, 1848; Delilah, born August 8, 1839, deceased.  George W. and Sarah J.[his sister] now live in Kansas, Amanda in Cleveland, Catharine in Missouri, and the others in Wayne county.  This sketch is furnished by Thomas Metzler, a minister of the Church of God, and who, we learn, has been an extensive traveler, and whose lecturing card we append: "Travels around the world.  Twenty-one days among the icebergs of the Southern Hemisphere; also in the North Pole regions.  A visit to South America, Australia, England and Ireland, and nearly all the States of the Union."

[Mrs. Rouch was the sister of John McQuigg of this company.  See his section above.]
Life Sketch of Capt. Rouch
  Mahlon Rouch was born in Plain township June 2, 1841 and the major part of his useful life was spent in Wayne county.  His father was Jacob Rouch, a farmer, and upon the home farm Capt. Rouch spent his early days.  He attended the neighborhood schools during the winter months.  At the age of nineteen years he entered Witttenberg college at Springfield, where he remained two years.
  On August 16, 1862 Capt. Rouch enlisted as a private in Company A 120th Regiment O.V.I. under Capt. Joseph H. Dowing.  He saw gallant service in the army and won several promotions, rising from private to first lieutenant in rapid order.  The promotion came to him while he was held a prisoner.  He was a prisoner in Camp Ford near Tyler, Texas,
[this was continued on page 4]
for thirteen months.  He received his discharge July 22, 1865, more than three months after the fall of Richmond, April 9, 1865.
Returned Home After the War
After the war Capt. Rouch returned to his home, taught school and conducted a farm for a time.  He then entered the law department of the University of Michigan and was graduated therefrom in the spring of 1868. He was admitted to the practice of law in Ohio and began his practice in Orrville in 1870, remaining there four years. He moved to Wooster in 1874 and opened an office for the practice of law.  In 1896 he formed a partnership with C.M. Yocum.  
  Capt. Rouch continued the practice of law until a few weeks ago when illness prevented him from making his daily trips from his home to his office.  At his office he was always courteous and diligent in whatever task was undertaken.  His was a busy life, filled with the activities of the years as they rolled past into history.  He met situations as they came, often taking a staunch stand upon leading issues with a firmness that knew no deviation.
  Expressions as to the character of Capt. Rouch were numerous today.  As to his character as an upright man, Judge W. E. Weygandt said:
  "I am grieved that we shall not again see Mahlon Rouch upon the streets nor in the court room.  Capt. Rouch was a man of staunch character, of the strictest integrity and above all he was charitable toward those in whom he might see faults.  The legal profession has lost a noble member."
  Many of the civil war veterans, some of whom served with Capt. Rouch, were grieved beyond expression when the news of his death was told them.
  "Capt. Rouch was a noble man, a brave soldier, a Christian gentleman and one who was loved by all comrades." is a summary of what the comrades said about Capt. Rouch.

Wayne County Graves Registration Cards book:
Cyrus Walter of Co A 120th OVI died 14 Oct 1865.  He was born in 1833.  He is buried at Wooster Cemetery, Wayne Co OH in Lot no 893, block no 8, grave no 1.  [The cemetery book says Section 8, grave 891.]  His headstone verifies his service.

Because of the appearance of a Barret in the 1860 census with Cyrus and Mary Walter, I believe this 1880 census record below to be that same widow Mary Walter:

In 1880 in Wooster, Wayne county Ohio, Mary Walter was living with her father William D. Barrett, a widower according to the census.  He was age 70 , a grocer born in England as were his parents.  Mary Walter was age 48 born in PA and was keeping house and is listed as a widow.  Her mother was born  in PA.  Also living there was her single sister Nila Barrett age 26 born OH and teaching school.  Also: her sister the widow Melcina Speelman age 24 born OH a clerk in a grocery.  Brother Frank  A. Barrett age 39 born OH and a grocer along with his wife Emma age 39 born PA and their son William H. Barrett age 2 born OH and their daughter Ruth age 8 months born OH.  James W. Sinnott was also living there.  He was age 21 born PA and was driving a delivery wagon.
 

There is no will/estate/guardianship listed in the book that I have found so far.   So far I have not connected him with any of the other Walter families in Wayne Co.

Benjamin Wells enlisted at Wilmot, Stark County, in Company A, 120th Regiment "shared in all the movement of the regiment, and in the battles of Chickasaw Bayou, Arkansas Post, and then returned to the Mississippi, where hard work on fortifying, miasma [infection floating in the air], and bad drinking water made him sick.  From May to August, 1863, he remained on light duty, then obtained a thirty days furlough home.  At its expiration, he reported at Cincinnati, but was found not able for field service, and was sent to Camp Dennison hospital.  There he remained sick through September, October and November, until discharged on a surgeon's certificate of disability, November 28, 1863.  At Mount Eaton, Wayne county, May 2, 1864, he enlisted in Company G, 166th Ohio National Guard, served with that regiment in its garrison duties at Ft. Ethan Allen [in Washington DC], and was mustered out with it at Cleveland, September 9, 1864."

A farmer.
For a full year from Oct 1862 while still in Camp Mansfield through Oct 1863, he was disabled from pneumonia and its aftereffects.  These aftereffects also included damage to his heart making him incapapble of active exercise.  Thus he was considered unfit even to be  in the Invalid Corps.

  Fulton County probate Court:  Cyrus J. WILFORD married Joanna WATKINS on 9 Nov 1869 in Fulton County OH.  

From the Widow's pension application: The soldier's wife's  name was Joanna WATKINS and they were married 9 November 1869 in Delta, Ohio.  He had not been previously married.  Joanna was the widow of Thomas WATKINS, a farmer in Fulton County, who had died 22 August 1868 in Delta.

1870 Census, Delta, York Twp, Fulton County OH, page 211:  Cyrus J. WIFFORD, age 32 PA, a farmer;  Johanna, age 35 PA.  No children listed.

1880 Census Delta, Fulon County OH, page 205:  Cyrus J WILFORD, age 42 OH, a merchant, parents born OH;  Joanna, wife, age 45 PA, parents born PA;  Harvey, son, age 9 OH.  Also living there were Jennie HUFFMAN age 30 OH parents born OH], boarder, teacher and Suma? [female] PERKINS, age 17 OH, parents born England, doing housework.

In Feb. of 1888 when he was examined for his pension his post office address was Delta, Fulton County, OH.  The paper spells his name WILLARD.  In his original invalid pension papers it is clear that he was sick from October of 1862 on, even spending 50 days back at home on furlough to get well.  Upon "returning to rejoin his Regiment at the end of that time, he was put upon a transport at Cairo Ill. to be taken to Memphis Tenn.  The weather was cold and damp and he was compelled to sleep on the upper deck exposed to the same and says he had a relapse and upon reaching Memphis Tenn. was sent to the Overton Hospital where he remiained about two weeks suffering and being treated for disease of the lungs and pleurosy.  That he was then sent to the U.S. Hospital at Mound City Ill. and remained until discharged, being treated for the same diseases which have continued to the present time."  

In 1888 acquaintances gave affadavits to verify Cyrus Wilford's lung condition and his being half diabled for the performance of manual labor.  David F. Carr [age 59] and Ephraim Sergeant [age 67] were from Orrville, Wayne County OH.  N.E. Boles [age 49] and Robert Halton [age 72] were from Delta, Fulton County OH.  It is interesting that the family physician who took care of Cyrus after the war in Wayne County was Samuel Wilford who was deceased by 1888.  These papers indicate that Cyrus moved from Wayne County to Fulton County in 1865.
