________
Pension record for Abraham:  Widow Susan C. filed 10 July 1863;  includes guardian filing for a minor 25 May 1866 with guardian Jacob Hertenstein.
Possible wife: Abraham BAUGHMAN married Susan C. ANTSBERGER, 5 Jan 1860, Summit co OH (probate record).

The Summit County, Ohio, Cemetery Inscriptions vol.II
On the Veterans buried in Franklin Township page:  Abraham Baughman is listed as a Civil War veteran buried in Clinton Cemetery. However, his name is not listed in the actual listings of burials/stones in that cemetery.  Perhaps the stone that had been put there for him has disappeared or was never actually placed there. 

The Roll of Honor in the back of the Roster book lists Abraham Baughman as being buried in Vicksburg, Miss.

Possible children found in death records of Ohio
Death record in Ohio:  File #25203, Herman BAUGHMAN, born 7 Sep 1863 in OH, died 4 Apr 1915 in Springfield, Summit Co OH.  Divorced.  Painter, Father Abraham B BAUGHMAN, born OH.  Mother Susan EARNSBERGER, born Baltimore, MD.  He had been 2 months and 3 dys at the summit County Infirmary.  Burial Clinton Cem.

Is this Susan Earnsburger BAUGHMAN?
1870 Census, series M593 Roll 1270, Franklin Twp, Summit Co OH, page 230:  Alonze [Alonzo] WEYGANDT, age 25 OH, coal miner;  Susan, age 27 MD; Helen, age 4 OH; H. BAUGHMAN, age 8 OH; Ida A. BAUGHMAN, age 10 OH.  

Still need Abraham's parents. Have not found him in 1860.  Need 1850 census.
 

Are these relatives of Abraham Baughman?
On page 964-5 of The History of Summit County Ohio by Perrin (1887) there is a biography of John C. Baughman of Norton Township.  "John C. Baughman, farmer; P. O. Johnson's Corners; was born in Lancaster Co., Penn., March 2, 1827, and came with his parents, John and Agnes (Conrad) Baughman, an older brother and one sister, to Chippewa Township, Wayne co., where they resided fourteen years, the father working at cabinet-making, the two sons clearing and tending a small piece of land which they had purchased.  In the fall of 1844, they moved to the now Steinbring farm, which he purchased and farmed until 1856, afterward selling the same to his son, John C., and returned to Wayne co., where his wife died.  He then lived alone between four and five years, when he left his home and lived with his children until his death, which occurred in 1872, at the home of our subject [John C.]."

 

BEARD, William*    9 Oct 1862
William, age 24, is listed in the Roster of Ohio Soldiers 1861-66 volume 8, page 261 as a private.
He died 20 May 1863 at St. Louis, Missouri.
_________
Burial: Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery, St Louis Missouri ....William Beard, just listed as US Army...died and buried 20 May 1863, Plot: 2 0 7025. His burial at Jefferson Barracks is verified in the Roll of Honor in the back of the Roster book stating that he is buried in section 2, grave 133 [that may be an old numbering system for the cemetery].

 

BERRIDGE, James    9 Oct 1862                                                                                               
James, age 18, is listed in the Roster of Ohio Soldiers 1861-66 volume 8, page 261 as a private.
He was captured 3 May 1864 near Snaggy Point on the Red River, LA. He mustered out 7 July 1865 at Camp chase, OH by order of War Department.
___________

On the 1860 census there is a James, age 18.  If this the right man, then the age given in the roster is wrong.  So that casts some doubt about whether this is the right James Berridge

1860 Census, Claridon Township, Marion County OH, page 378:  James Berridge, age 18, living with James Berridge (52) and Elizabeth (42). They are farmers.  The other children are: Anna (16), George (13), Losler (?) (6), Besey (1), John Cradler (6), Ann E. Cradler (5). All were born in England except the child Besey. 

Possible wife: James Berridge of Company G is NOT on the Marion County Honor Roll for the Civil War.  But he may not have been in there because he seems to have moved to Washington State and so may have been missed for that reason.
.

Marion County Probate Court record:  James Berridge married Hanna PHILIPS on 21 Dec 1865 in Marion county OH.

1880 Census, Series: T9  Roll: 1046, Claridon Twp, Marion Co OH, page 161:  James BERRIDGE, age 37 England, day laborer, parents born England; Hannah, wife, age 32 Canada, father born Ire, mother born Eng.;  Laura P, daughter, age 11 IL; James S, son, age 8, born IL; Robert, age 23 OH, cousin, day laborer, parents born Eng.

There is a Hanna Berridge, widow, in the 1920 Federal Census in Mead Twp., Spokane Co, Washington. She was born in Canada, is 72 years old. 

BICKEL, Jacob    8 Oct 1862
Jacob, age 30, is listed in the Roster of Ohio Soldiers 1861-66 volume 8, page 261 as a Musician.
He was discharged 7 Jan 1863 at Columbus OH on a Surgeon's certificate of disability.

Pension index: Jacob Bickel of G 120th OVI and A 169th OVI. [The 169th, organized at Camp Cleveland,  was a regiment that served 100 days.  Jacob Bickel who was age 37 at the time entered as a private on 2 May 1864 and mustered out with the company 4 Sept 1864.  This regiment went to Washington City and was on garrison duty in Fort Ethan Allen. It participated in the defeat of Early's attack on Washington. The age of 37, given in the Roster of Ohio Soldiers for the 169th and age of 30  two years earlier for his  enlistment in  the 120th, raises the question of Jacob's actual year of birth.]

[About Benton's parents:  On page 964-5 of The History of Summit County Ohio by Perrin (1887) there is a biography of John C.

Pension index: Benton Barkhamer of Co G 120th filed for invalid pension 20 Dec 1879...no state indicated.

Wayne County Grave Registration Cards book lists Benton Barkhamer, no address listed, buried at Chestnut Hill Cemetery, Lot 128, block #1, grave #2,
died 26 Mar 1887 and was born in 1840.
So from this and the census records, it would seem that the age in the Roster book at the top of this section is not correct. He was probably only about 22 when he enrolled in 1862.

Wayne County Burials book says that there is a stone for Benton Barkhamer at Chestnut Hill cemetery, Chippewa Twp, Wayne OH.  It has no dates but the Wayne Burials book indicates he was in Company G, 120th OVI.  I could not find Benton's grave when I went to Doylestown.  There was a stone for G W BARKHAMER, and wife Charity, and that may be his brother, George.

History of Summit County Ohio, by William Henry Perrin 1881:  pp. 669 - 670 - BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES:

DAVID BUNN, policeman, Akron, Ohio, a son of Jacob and Sarah A. (Whaler) Bunn, was born in Wells Co., Ind., May 23, 1842, his father having moved to that locality in an early day. Subject worked on a farm, and helped to clear 200 acres of woodland. He went to school, two miles distant, and, at 19, came to Ohio, where he worked for David Gailhouse, of Wayne County, on farm and in coal bank. He enlisted, Aug. 22, 1862. in Co. G, of the 120th O. V. I., and participated in the Trans-Mississippi and Vicksburg campaign, and the Red River expedition.

Contributed by Tom Cooper, a Cooper family researcher

Henry F. "Harry" Cooper was born about 1844 in Doylestown, Wayne County Ohio, the son of Henry A. and Catherine Meech Cooper.  His early life was spent in Doylestown where his father was a blacksmith and also served in the capacity of justice of the peace and attorney.  Henry F. was the third child in the family.  He had two older siblings: Eunice born 1839 and James born 1842. His three younger siblings were: Charity P. born 1846, sister Wealthea "Wella" born 1854, and Howard W. born 1849. All the siblings were born in Doylestown.

Henry F., a young man of 18 (described as still being a schoolboy when he enlisted on his pension application), enlisted at Doylestown and mustered in as a Private.  During his service he was promoted to Corporal and then Sergeant.  He was taken prisoner on the Red River at Snaggy Point, Louisiana on May 3rd 1864, his regiment being in action on the transport "City Belle".  Henry was marched from where he was taken prisoner to Camp Ford in Tyler, Texas.  After reaching the camp he was transferred to Co. D of the 114th Ohio Volunteers until April 30th 1865.  There he was held until May 27th 1865.  In an affidavit filed with his pension request it states the following about his experience at Camp Ford..."during imprisonment - was exposed to the weather and had little or no medical care, scarcely any clothing - took sick and continued worse and better at times until released."

When released from Camp Ford, Henry reported to Benton Barracks in Mississippi on June 12, 1865.  From there he was sent to Camp Chase Ohio where he arrived June 20 1865 and was mustered out on 7 July 1865 as a Sergeant.

Henry returned to Doylestown after the War.  He married there on August 15th 1869 to Rachael A. Bruce. They were married by his father, Henry A., Justice of the Peace.  Henry worked as did his father before him as a blacksmith throughout his life. Their first child, Clyde, was born in 1870 at Doylestown and was followed by Harry L. in 1876.  Sometime after that the family moved to Hennepin County, Minnetonka, Minnesota.  There in 1878 daughter Florence F. joined the family.  In the 1880 Hennepin County census Henry was listed as a self employed blacksmith.  By October of 1883 Henry and family had moved back to Wayne County Ohio living in Dalton and in June of 1884 was living in Orrville Ohio. 

Henry was described in his application for pension physical as 5 foot 4 inches 135 lbs, dark hair, dark complexion and dark eyes.  Suffering from poor health he made application for pension and was denied.  To which he sent this note that indicated his displeasure with the decision to Commissioner William Dudley:

November 1883 Dalton Ohio
Mr. Dudley
If you think with the Government that I am not entitled to a pension, why do you not grant - if you think that a boy can be penned up 12 months and 24 days and come out a sound man  -  I have not more to say  -  and the Rebs must have been kind, their prisons a heaven.
yours
Henry F. Cooper
Less than two years later on the 7th of July 1885, Henry was killed in Akron, Ohio.
From the Dalton Ohio Gazette 15 July 1885
KILLED BY THE CARS
Henry F. Cooper of Akron, son of Henry Cooper Esq. of this place was killed by a train on the P. and W. Railroad at Akron Tuesday evening last.  From his father we learn these sad particulars of the sad accident.  Henry was walking along the track near the Buckeye Shops when the Engine struck him.  He was thrown fully 20 feet in the air and struck the ground with his head and shoulders breaking his neck.  There were no cuts or bruises on his body and nothing to show that he had met a violent death. Physicians were summoned but he was dead when picked up.  He was a member of the 120th Regiment and during the War served as an orderly sergeant of his company.  He leaves a wife and three children.  Mr. Cooper informs us the railroad company has been sued for damages and it can be readily proven that the train at the time it struck his son was running at a rate of 30 miles an hour, contrary to the law.  The funeral took place on Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock.

From the Wayne County Jacksonian, Wooster Ohio 16 July 1885
Henry F. cooper who was killed by the cars at Akron last week was a son of Henry Cooper Esq. of Dalton and was a former resident of that place.

Henry was buried in Glendale Cemetery, Akron Ohio.  His wife Rachael remarried on 12 May 1888 to Nicolas J. Replogle who died March 17, 1906.  Rachael applied for a pension for Henry's service in 1908 and this request was also denied due to the fact that she had remarried.

Gabriel C Dague
The life of Gabriel C.Dague has always been one of unceasing industry and perseverance and the systematic and honorable methods he has followed have won him the unbounded confidence of his fellow men. He was born in Chippewa township, Wayne county, Ohio, January 14, 1841, the son of M. D. and Elizabeth K. (McElhaine) Dague. Both were born near Beverly, Pennsylvania, and each came to Chippewa township about 1820 with their parents, and here amid the primitive conditions of those early days they grew to maturity. M.D. Dague was educated in the early schools of Chippewa township, working on the home farm in the meantime. He naturally turned his attention to agricultural pursuits, which he followed until 1868, in which year he entered the general mercantile business in Western Star, Ohio, which lies partly in Medina and partly in Summit county. He continued in that line for five years and then sold out to his two sons, William Carman and Gabriel `C., the latter the subject of this sketch. These two sons and their father, also Samuel Duley, the father-in-law of William Carman Dague, then started a store in Doylestown, Ohio, in which they successfully handled dry goods, groceries and notions. During this time M. D. Dague again became part owner of his sons' stores at Western Star and Doylestown. Ten years after he entered business in Doylestown he retired and lived a quiet life until his death, at eighty-five years of age, living in Doylestown, merely looking after his agricultural interests in a general way. He was a very successful business man and was popular with all classes owing to his honesty and friendliness. For further facts regarding the ancestry of the subject, the reader is directed to the sketch of T. J. Dague on another page of this work. Gabriel C. Dague received his educational training in the common schools at the various places he lived when a boy and at the Western Star Academy. In September, 1862, soon after completing his education, he enlisted in the Union Army, but he was not admitted to the service until October 9th of that year. He was a member of Company G. One Hundred and Twentieth Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry, and served with that company until May 3, 1864, in a manner that stamped him as a gallant soldier. He was taken prisoner at Shagy Point [Snaggy Point], Louisiana, on the Red river, and he was sent to Camp Ford, Tyler, Texas, where he was held until May 27, 1865. He fought at Chickasaw Bluffs, at the siege of Vicksburg, Arkansas Post, after which he returned to Vicksburg and remained there from July 4, 1863, until the city surrendered a month later. He then went with his company to New Orleans and spent the winter at Plaquemine, Louisiana. After his release he weighed but eighty pounds. He returned to his father's farm and assisted with the work on the home place for eight years, then farmed for himself for four years, at the end of which time he purchased a half interest in his father's store at Western Star, as already indicated. Then for a period of thirty-two years he followed in a most successful manner merchandising at Western Star, Doylestown and Akron, Ohio, twenty years being spent at Western Star and twelve years at the last mentioned places; however, he was interested in all three most of the time. He seemed to take naturally to merchandising and his stores enjoyed a very liberal patronage. In 1904 he sold out his last interest and has since lived a retired life at his beautiful home in Doylestown, surrounded by plenty as the fruits of his earlier years of labor. Mr. Dague was married in November 1865, to Jennie H. Harkins, of Wooster, who passed away in 1868, and on December 30, 1869, Mr. Dague again married his last wife being Mary A Brown, a native of Stark county, Ohio, and to this union four children were born, namely; Bertha, who married Harry Baughman, is the mother of two children, Bessie and Ralph; Harmon H. married Minnie Seiberling, and they are the parents of three children, Ethel, Florence and Roy. Carman W. and Raymond Dague are both deceased. Politically, Mr. Dague adheres to the tenets of the Democratic party. He has been school director in Doylestown, Western Star, also treasurer of the school board at Western Star. He was also postmaster at that place for fifteen years. He has always been interested in the progress of his county, politically, morally, educationally or materially, and he has an extensive acquaintance throughout this locality, bearing a reputation of honesty and industry alike. ______________________________

Thomas Jefferson Dague
His paternal great grandfather Dague/Deg was born at sea while his parents were on root from Germany to America.
His paternal grandfather, Gabriel Dague/Dage/ was among the first to settle in Milton Twp, Wayne county OH along with his brothers Michael and Frederick and other relatives all coming from Washington Co. PA.  Gabriel's wife was Rachel Howe. [Gabriel Dague age 80 years, 9 months is buried in Chestnut Hill cemetery in Doylestown.  Died 22 Jan 1872.]
His maternal grandparents, Thomas D'Armon McElheim [Scottish descent] and Margaret Aiken [Irish descent] came to Chippewa Twp.Wayne Co OH from Center County PA.
His parents: M.D. and Elizabeth K. (McELHEIM) DAGUE  [An article in the Commemorative Biographical Record of WayneCounty Ohio (1889) has Elizabeth's maiden name as McElhenie. This list of children are Thomas J., Rebecca J., William C., James W., and Joseph M.   Note: why was son Gabriel left off the list? ]

Thomas Jefferson Dague, the second son of M. D. and Elizabeth K (McElheim) Dague,  was born 1 Dec 1843 in Chippewa Township, Wayne Co., Ohio, on what is known as the Slagle farm.  The family moved later to the Agard farm, about two and one-half miles northeast of Wadsworth Village and then to the old Griswold farm in Norton, Summit Co., Ohio near Western Star [Medina County].  Thomas lived there until he was 18.  He taught school for a short time in Arlington, Hancock Co Ohio and then enlisted in Company G [with his brother and uncle up in Wayne county].  He was taken severely ill at Camp Mansfield, and was allowed to return home on furlough, where he remained for months, just on the verge between life and death.  In July 1863 he rejoined the regiment in the rear of Vicksburg, arriving just the day before the surrender.  From this time on, he served in the ranks, participating in the battles at Jackson, Miss., Snaggy Point, LA., and Blakely, Ala.  He was one of those on board the ill-fated steamer City Belle [at Snaggy Point], but was fortunate enough to make good his escape.  He was then transferred to the 104th OVI and afterward to the 48th OVVI.  During the whole of his army life, his fondness for books and study never left him, and even on the most tiresome marches there was found a place in his knapsack for his favorite books. He was also a regular correspondent of the press. 

He was engaged in business in the South until the fall of 1866, when ill-health obliged him to return North.  He taught school and then opened a private academy in Doylestown [Wayne County, OH].  But in 1869 he closed this school and in 1873 completed his Bachelor and Master of Arts at Miami University [Ohio].  He had been married to Martha Josephine Reid on the preceding 26th of December. Martha was the daughter of the late Andrew Reid, Esq., and Sarah C. Kelso, of Rockbridge, VA.

In 1876 Thomas Dague organized a prep school in Chillicothe Ohio where he also wrote for the Scioto Gazette
In 1879 he moved the school to Wadsworth to a building purchased by his father.

Jacob enlisted at Chippewa Township. His pension papers say that he was ill and in the Marine USA General Hospital from 24 Jan 1865 until he mustered out.
Jacob Detrick  married Catherine Amanda Garrison in the early 1840s.  Born to them were John G.(of Akron OH) and George, both also of this Company G, Henry J. and Sara Thompson (of Red Oak, Iowa).  They were born in PA.  The family is in the 1850 census in Clearfield Co PA (before Sara's birth.)  In 1859 Jacob moved to the Westfield area of Medina County OH.  It was called Le Roy then.  Catherine Amanda died in 1860.  He married Polly Tinsler on 3 June 1860. From his pension record:  Jacob was wounded during the war in his leg.  Jacob died 22 Sep 1895 and is buried in Friendsville Cemetery.  [Medina County: Friendsville is west of Westfield Center, straight west through Westfield Center on the road going to Lodi.  His first wife may be buried there too.]

__________
History of Wayne County Ohio published in 1910 by B.E. Bowen and Company...article about Jefferson's brother Abram:
"
Abram Etling When a man wins his own way from an humble station and discouraging environment to success and an honorable standing in the community, his career is worthy of representation in the history of such a locality. We find in studying the career of Abram Etling, a farmer in Chippewa township, Wayne county, that such were his experiences. His birth occurred on the homestead now occupied by his brother, January 9,1852, and he is the son of William and Abigail (Myers) Etling. His paternal grandparents were Henry and Katherine Etling natives of Lancaster county, Pennsylvania, who came to Wayne county, Ohio, about 1820, among the pioneers of the community where they settled. Mr. Etling did not long survive after coming here, Mrs. Etling living until 1866. The maternal grandparents of the subject were John and Mary Myers, also natives of Pennsylvania, who came to Wayne county, Ohio, about the same time as did the first members of the Etling family. The maternal grandmother also took up land, two quarter sections in Chippewa township consequently at one time this family were collectively quite extensive land owners. William Etling, father of Abram, was born in Pennsylvania on December 3, 1815, and his wife, Abigail Myers, was born December 18,1822. They came to Ohio with their parents and were here married on June 3, 184l. Mr. Etling engaged in farming, and at the time of his death owned over one hundred and sixty acres in Chippewa township, where he became well known and fairly well to do. His death occurred September 27, 1892, having been preceded to the silent land by his wife only a few months, her death having occurred on January 16, 1892. William Etling was a Democrat and took considerable interest in local affairs, having held the office of trustee several terms. He and his wife were the parents of nine children, two of whom died in infancy, seven living at this writing. Abram Etling was educated in the common schools of Chippewa township and was reared on the farm, which he worked during the crop season. When the Civil war began Abram's older brother enlisted in the Union army and the subject was compelled to remain at home to work. Quite naturally he took up farming and has followed this line of work ever since, with the exception of three years, when he moved to Barberton and engaged in teaming from 1904. Finally returning to the farm he still manages the same with success, his place consisting of eighty acres, on which he raises a diversity of excellent crops and keeps some stock, the two lines of endeavor making him a very comfortable living. Mr.Etling was married March 2, 1875, to Ada McIntyre, a native of Wayne county, Ohio, and the daughter of Phillip and Agnes McIntyre, old settlers of this county, who now live in Kansas. To Mr. and Mrs. Etling were born nine children, namely: William E., Bertus Oliver, Arthur M. (deceased) Bertha Alice, Etta Blanch, Laura K. (deceased), Forest Richard, Florence, Arville and Abram Harold. Mr. Etling is a Democrat and he and his wife are members of the Reformed church in Marshallville."

Wayne County probate records have two possible marriages for Jefferson:
Emeline Reinochl (or Reinoehl), 20 Dec 1866 in Wayne Co OH
Maria McCalmon, 12 Sep 1878, Wayne Co OH

1870 Census, Series: M593 Roll: 1280, Baughman Twp, Wayne Co OH, page 19:  Jefferson ETLINE, age 26 OH, brick mason; Emma, age 22 OH; Mettie, age 2 OH; Mindella, age 11 months, born July 1869.  [Note: Birth Records from the Wayne County Ohio Probate Court 1867-1908 show these two children for Jefferson (Jeff or J.C.) and Emeline (Emmy): They were a girl Mindella, 31 July 1869; Francis(?) Nelly Etling, 26 May 1872]

The 1880 census seem to show that this Jefferson Etling did marry both the women in the probate records above.  It shows Jefferson living in Marshallville, Wayne Co Ohio with wife Mary Etling.  Jefferson was a stone mason, 35 yrs old, born in OH, with his parents being born in PA.  Mary was 33 yrs, born in OH.  Her father was born in PA and mother in OH.  Living with them are daughters Mindella Etling, age 10 born in OH, and Nellie F Etling age 8 born in OH.  We see from the birth record above that Jefferson and Emeline were the parents of Mindella and Nelly.  Both their parents were born in Ohio.

1900 Census, Series: T623  Roll: 1322, Lawrence Twp, Stark Co OH, page 136:  Jefferson C ETLING, age 56 OH, born Apr 1844, married 21 yrs, bricklayer, father born PA, mother born OH; Mary, wife, age 53 OH, born Aug 1846, married 21 yrs, 3 children/2 still living, father born PA, mother born OH; Frank, son, age 17 OH, born Nov 1882, day laborer parents born OH; Anna, daughter, age 14 OH, born Jan 1886, parents born OH.

I am wondering if Erasmus died before the 1870 census....but if so, why not listed in a cemetery in Chippewa Twp?

Harvey Galehouse was found dead last Thursday morning at his home near Doylestown.  He had not been very well for a few days, but was around, and laid down on a lounge where his wife found him lifeless.  His age was 69[?] years.  He was a soldier in the 48th Regiment OVVI and was subject to heart disease.  He is survived by his wife and several children.  The funeral took place Saturday afternoon.
[In a second article printed the same day in the Wooster Weekly Republican on page 4, it states that Harvey was a soldier during the Rebellion and that he was about 60 years of age. It also dispels a rumor that Harvey was injured in a quarrel, but states that he had exchanged some angry words with a gentleman who was in town on Wednesday afternoon.]

The Ohio Veterans Grave Registration site says that John W. Galehouse of Co G 120th OVI is buried in Wayne County.
In the Wayne County burials book there are two John W. Galehouse men buried in Chestnut Hill cemetery in Doylestown:
John W. Galehouse, died 3 Dec 1879, age 35 yrs and 6 months.  This would be correct birth time for John Wesley of Co. G.
This must be the correct man since the soldier John W. Galehouse of Co G applied for an invalid pension 30 Sep 1879 and then on 5 Jan 1880 a guardian for a minor was appointed...meaning that John W. must have died between the two applications.  This guardian's name was Elias Galehouse. This guardian may have been John W's father.

This information about Andrew Gardheffner comes from Ed Marshall 
(See Joseph Marshall of Co G below on this page)

This additional in formation about Andrew's service was in his pension application papers:
He was sent to the hospital in Youngs Point, Louisiana on May 2nd 1863.  He remained in the hospital
there during July and August.  On August 4th 1863 Andrew was sent aboard a hospital boat and in
September and October of 1863 was listed as "Sick at St. Louis, Missouri."   His transfer to Company G of the 21st Veterans Reserve Corp on November 27th 1863 was due to chronic hepatitis. 

More from Ed with additions of some data by the webmaster.
1st Marriage:   Andrew Gardheffner married Mary Ann Webb, 7 Nov 1841, in Stark County, Ohio

[This one is probably wrong because of the wife's name.  There is a person matching the age of soldier Andrew in the 1850 Federal Census in Lawrence Twp., Stark Co., OH page 85.  (dwelling 425, family 437).  It lists these people: A. Gardhefner age 30 a farmer;  Christina Gardhefner age 27;  Catherine Minger age 11
Note:  Below there is another 1850 census record for a person by the same name.  We aren't sure yet which one is right.  We really need the soldier's will to know the names of his children.]

The 1850 Stark County Census I referred to was also for Lawrence Township (dwelling 633, family
649).  In the 1850 census, Andrew "Gardhefer," age 29, born in Germany, is listed as head of a household in Stark County Ohio.  Also in the household are Mary, age 31, Catherine, age 8, Mary, age 7, William, age 2, and Jas age 4 months.  Andrew's occupation is listed as a baker.

On the preceding page the family of John and Christina Hammer is listed (dwelling 421,  family 433).   I understand that they are John A. Hammer and Christiana Goerthoefner/Gardheffner, married 11 May 1824 in Germany.  This comes from another researcher.

2nd Marriage:   Married Mary A. Sallmon, 5 May 1852, in Stark County, Ohio.  [From IGI Record - Batch Number
M514301] 

I took a few minutes and starting looking in the 1860 Census files for Lawrence TWP, Stark County and found A. Gardheffner.  Looks like the same family as Andrew Gardheffner's in the 1850 census. 
1860 Census Fulton P.O., Lawrence Twp, Stark Co
A. Gardhathen [spelled that way on the census] age 40, a warehouseman, born in Bavaria;  Mary A. age 41 b. PA; Mary A. age 16 b. OH; William, age 12 b. OH; James A. age 10, b. Oh; George F, age 8 b. OH. 

3rd Marriage:   After the war he married Helen Shondel, widow of Francis Marshall.  [Helen and Francis Marshall were the parents of Joseph Marshall who served in this Company G of the 120 Ohio Volunteer Infantry with Andrew Gardheffner. Francis had died on March 13th 1864.   Helen died on September 17th 1869.  But Andrew continued to live for awhile with his step-son, Joseph Marshall as evidenced in the 1870 census.

[1870 Census, Series M593 Roll 1280, Doylestown, Chippewa Twp, Wayne Co OH, page 106:  Joseph MARSHAL, age 26 OH, stone mason, Catharine, age 25 OH; Mary F. J., age 2 OH; Clement, age 9 months OH, born August 1869; Henry, age 24 OH, teaching school;  Andrew GARDHEFNER, age 49 Bavaria, stone mason. ]

In the 1870 census, Andrew Gardhefner, age 49, is living in the household of his step-son and fellow Civil War veteran, Joseph Marshall.  Others in the household are Joseph's wife Catherine, daughter Mary Frances, son Clement, and brother Henry.  Both Joseph and Andrew are noted as being stone masons.  Henry's occupation is given as teaching school.  Andrew's birthplace is listed as Bavaria

The 1870 census was for Chippewa Twp., Wayne Co.   And it was Joseph Marshall and Andrew Gardheffner who were the stone masons.  [Joseph's younger brother Henry's occupation in 1870 was School Teacher.  He had lost a leg in 1864 when he was 17 in a farm accident (a tree fell on him during  land clearing).  Consequently he attended High School in Canton.   It seems likely that it was during this time that his mother, Helen SHONDEL Marshall, was married to Andrew Gardheffner.  She had been widowed in March 1864 and died in September 1869.   Henry went on to become the Wayne County Recorder and a Deputy Probate Judge.]

[Pension Index:  Andrew GARDHEFFNER, G 120th OH Inf.  Invalid filed 1879 May 12.  Widow, Barbara GARDHEFFNER, filed 1887 June 7 in OH. The only reference to Andrew Gardhefner's children in the pension files was a statement that he had no children under age 16 (in his widow's pension application).  I have not yet checked for a will or obituary and have not done a manual search of the 1860 census. ]

[1880 Census, Series T9 Roll 1067, Canal Fulton, Lawrence Twp, Stark Co OH, page 54:  Margaret BERNOWER, age 60 Elsass, parents born Elsass [Note: Alsace]; Elisabeth, age 29 OH, daughter, tailoring, parents born Elsass; Philip, son, age 23 OH, traveling agent, parents born Elsass;  Augustus, son, age 20 OH, clerk in grocery, parents born Elsass; Andru GARDHEFNER, boarder, age 58 OH, day laborer, parents born Prussia.]  

4. Married Barbara Yack, 8 Nov. 1881, in Canal Fulton, Stark County, Ohio.  Barbara had been previously married to Michael Elzbeck & Paul Ries, both deceased by 1881.  Barbara died on April 18th 1908. In the widow's pension papers, Barbara stated that Andrew had been previously married three times.

John and Christina Hammer's son, Jacob, married Mary E. Kindig, (the daughter of Benjamin Kindig and Elizabeth Whitman of Chippewa Twp., Wayne County).  Jacob and Mary lived in Wayne County.  My 2nd great-grandmother's sister, Sarah Shondel, also married a Kindig.  {Sarah become a sister-in-law to Andrew Gardheffner when he married Helen SHONDEL Marshall.]  So in addition to Andrew Gardheffner having served with Joseph Marshall, there seemed to have been another marriage tie between the extended families.  John and Christina GARDHEFFNER Hammer also had a son named Andrew.   An Andrew Hammer provided one of the affidavits that accompanied Barbara YACK Gardheffner's widow's pension application.

Anyway, I'm not absolutely sure if your "A. Gardhefner" or my "Andrew Gardhefner" from the 1850 census is our veteran, but the name of Andrew's first wife is noted as Mary Webb in the affidavit's which accompanied Barbara YACK Gardheffner's pension application; which fits with "Mary" age 31
listed with "Andrew Gardhefner" as opposed to "Christina" listed with "A. Gardhefner". Pension Index:  Andrew GARDHEFFNER, G 120th OH Inf.  Invalid filed 1879 May 12.  Widow, Barbara GARDHEFFNER, filed 1887 June 7 in OH.  

Andrew died on 8 March 1887, in Canal Fulton, at age 66 years, 8 months and 8 days. [From a transcript from the "Stark County Probate Court Record of Deaths," which was included in his pension file.]
 
Moreover we can't even be sure that the four children mentioned in the 1850 household of Andrew are his children since relationships were not stated in the 1850 census - there's a slight chance they were a relative's children).  

I don't know where Andrew Gardheffner is buried.  I assume it's in Canal Fulton where he died.  Another researcher  mentioned that she and her husband found a Gardheffner grave in Sts. Philip and James Catholic Church Cemetery in Canal Fulton, Ohio, this past summer.  They were looking for Hammers and Weavers and saw the Gardheffner grave, but it didn't "fit" with the data they had at the time.   Christina (Gardheffner) and her husband, John A. Hammer are buried there.

I have not found a record of where my gg-grandmother,Helen SHONDEL Marshall / Gardheffner, is buried either.  Nor have I found a record in either Wayne or Stark Counties of her death.  [Her death date comes from family records and a biographical sketch of Henry Marshall published in 1889.]

Oh, here's a little tidbit that I made some longhand notes on several years ago at the Ohio History Center in Columbus (wish I had an exact copy):
From Tri-County Weekly News - Doylestown, Ohio - (microfilm roll 19204):
In the 16 June 1892 issue:
Brave 120th Reunion at Doylestown on June 14th ... 24th annual reunion, one company of which "G" was mainly formed by boys from this vicinity.
Formed up at 10:00 A.M. - marched to the public square
One hundred present (53 of 111 of Company G are known to be living)

Andrew was still alive in 1893.
In the 1 June 1893 edition:
The 120th OVI will hold 25th reunion at Mansfield O. on Tuesday, June 13 and
Memorial Day Decorations of soldiers graves in Doylestown on Tuesday May 30, 1892 - Chestnut Hill cemetery by the G.A.R. ex-soldiers present [Marshall, Joseph Co. G 120 OVI included in list]
----------

**I wonder if the second marriage in my outline might have been for a different Andrew Gardheffner (or 
an out right error on someone's part).  Our veteran was said to have been married three times before he
married Barbara Yack.  Assuming the Helen SHONDEL Marshall seems to have been the 2nd wife (since Andrew Hammer said that Andrew Gardheffner's 3rd wife was Mary Houck who died April 3, 1874).

Obituary Contributed by Robert Robinson, great grandson of Albert Gautie [Gouter]

Albert Henry Gouter, aged and highly respected citizen of this city died at his home , 709 North Main Street at 4 o'clock Monday afternoon. He had been in ill health for the past several years and suffered several strokes of paralysis, which ultimately developed arterial sclerosis, which caused his death. He was aged 88 years.
 Mr. Gouter was born in France in 1833, and when a small boy came to America and located at Mt. Eaton. When he arrived here this section of the country was unsettled and the land that is now the richest agricultural section of the state, was nothing but stumps, woods and underbrush. He lived to see a wonderful change in this locality and often would in his native tongue converse with his friends regarding the developments that he had observed.
  In 1875 he was united in marriage to Mary E. Grimm, and to this union were born three children, one son, Albert W. Gouter; and two daughters, Miss Lena, this city; and Mrs. Emma Croker of Cleveland, whom with six grandchildren survive him. His faithful wife preceded him to the great beyond by fifteen years.
 Mr. Gouter was a veteran of the Civil war, enlisting in the United States service at Orrville, August 22, 1862, mustered into service in Capt. W.G. Myers Co., G, 120th O.V.I., to serve three years. He was wounded in the right side during battle and taken to a field hospital, where he remained two months, recovering from the wound. He was granted an honorable discharge with a surgeon's certificate of disability.
 He engaged in some of the fiercest battles of the war, such as Chickasaw Bayou, Arkansas Post, Thompson Hill, siege of Vicksburg, Big Black River, Jackson, and numerous skirmishes. He was a member of Wayne Post, G.A.R. He was for the past 45 years a faithful and devoted member of Christ Reformed church, and was regular in attendance until his health became so impared that he was forced to remain away from services.

Funeral services were held at the home at 2:00 o'clock this Thursday afternoon, conducted by Rev. M.P. Schoepfle. Burial in Crown Hill cemetry.

John A. Gochnauer enlisted at Orrville, August 22, 1862, and was mustered into Company G, 120th Ohio volunteer Infantry at Camp Mansfield, the first of September.  He went with the regiment into the field, where it was assigned to the 13th army corps under Sheridan, and joined his forces before the battle of Chickasaw Bayou.  In this battle he was not a participant, having been a victim of chronic diarrhea for several weeks, and being so reduced that he could barely walk, and was not allowed to leave the boat, either there or at Arkansas Post.  He participated in the vigorous campaigning under Grant before Vicksburg, having first suffered further sickness, as did most of the regiment, at Youngs Point, and he fought at Thompsons Hill, Raymond, Black River Bridge, the two assaults on Vicksburg and at Jackson.  The regiment was then transferred to Louisiana, and for one month, fall of 1863, he was detailed orderly for the general commanding at New Orleans.  When the regiment was at Plaquemine he received thirty days furlough, which was extended sixty days, his illness continuing.  He reported to his regiment near Baton Rouge, started with it up the Red river, was captured at the sinking of the City Belle, and taken to the Camp Ford prison in Tyler county, Texas.  Thirteen months he was confined there, suffering all that man can suffer and live.  He with a companion laid out a plan for escape, to bribe the guards, get a start and make for Mexico, as the boys trying to make their way north were about all recaptured.  But the prisoners were removed for parole, and returned to God's country. [Ohio]  He was mustered out at Columbus, July 7, 1865.  Notwithstanding the loss of his health, which has never been restored, he has not been granted the pension for which he applied, and to which he is entitled.[1885] He was born in East Union township,. Wayne county, August 16, 1843, son of Samuel and Catharine (Hoover) Gochnauer.  In Wooster he married Margaret Stoner, August 15, 1867, and their children were born:  Anna Odessa, May 26, 1868; Mary Elizabeth, December 5, 1870; Jeannetta Catharine, August 8, 1872; William Franklin, June 6, 1874; Samuel Clyde, March 21, 1877; Ada Almeda, May 20, 1879; Thomas Edward, Sep 13, 1881.  Margaret, daughter of Charles and Elizabeth (Oberlin) Stoner, was born in Wood County, Ohio, June 25, 1845.  Mr. Gochnauer is farming near Dalton, which is his postoffice address.

Alfred C. Grow, one of the progressive and well-to-do general farmers of Auburn township, Susquehanna County, was born May 7, 1840, Mehoopany, Wyoming Co., Penn., son of John W. Grow and Caroline (Wakefield) Grow. John W. Grow [Alfred's father] was born January 3, 1820, in Connecticut, son of Danford and Chloye (Jones) Grow, who became early settlers of Meshoppen, Penn. In Meshoppen township, Wyoming county, he met and married Caroline Wakefield [Alfred's mother], a native of Massachusetts, daughter of Cyrus Wakefield, a farmer and they soon afterward removed to Mehoopany, where Mr. Grow operated a sawmill, and also carried on a coopering business. Seven children were born to their union, namely; Alfred C., James, who died in Akron, Ohio; Philander, who died while serving in the Civil war; Adelia, wife of Franklin Bullock, a retired citizen of Tunkhannock, Penn.; Emerson, a blacksmith, living in Illinois; George, who runs a sawmill in Auburn township; and Uneca, who died in childhood. The mother died in 1855 at Meshoppen, Penn., where she was buried, and where the father now lives retired. He married, for his second wife, Mrs. Eunice White, and to them were born children as follows; Inez, married to Solomon Baker, a stone mason of Meshoppen; Ida, wife of Maleel Harvey, a farmer of Kizerville, Penn., and Hattie, wife of John Harvey, who owns a farm near Kizerville. Mr. Grow is a member of the Baptist Church. Alfred C. Grow received his education in the public schools and remained under the parental roof up to the age of fifteen years, after his mother’s death making his home with an uncle for a year. Between the ages of thirteen and fifteen he worked in a sawmill at Meshoppen. For a few years during his early manhood he worked with various farmers, and he also lived at home for two years. For three months he was engaged in repair work on the river dam, and for two or three years prior to his marriage ran a sawmill in Springville township, Susquehanna County, which his father rented. After his marriage, in 1860, he purchased a mill in Springville, which he ran for six months, at the end of that time moving to Lymanville, Penn., where he engaged in farming for a year. In July, 1861, he enlisted, for three years, in Company H, 1st Pennsylvania Light Artillery, under Capt. James Brady, but he was discharged in January, 1862, at Washington, D. C., on account of disability. For the next two years he was capable of doing little work, though he carried on farming for about a year, and in December, 1863, he moved to Doylestown, Ohio, where he was employed for a few months in the Buckeye reaper and mower shop. In January, 1864, he re-enlisted, this time in Company G, 120th O. V. I., under Capt. Benjamin Jones, after a few months service with that command transferring to the 114th O. V. I., and later to another Ohio regiment. He participated in the Red River campaign, was in various skirmishes, and was under fire for a week at Blakely, but he was never wounded. He came home on furlough in the fall of 1865, and received an honorable discharge from the service in May. 1866, at Columbus, Ohio. For about one year after his return from the army, Mr. Grow was under the doctor’s care, after which, until 1871, he was employed in the reaper and mower machine shop at Doylestown. In 1872 he returned to Pennsylvania, first renting a farm in Auburn Township, Susquehanna County, The next year he worked the Whitesmith farm, in 1874 and 1875 the Lemuel Blakesley farm at Springville, and subsequently Dr. Gratton’s farm at Benton Center. On his return to Springville he worked for six years for Lemuel Blakesley, and he has since been engaged in farming on his own account at present living on the Beardsley farm, in Auburn township, near the Baptist Church. It comprises 130 acres of good land, and by industry and careful management Mr. Grow has derived a good income from the farm, gaining a well-deserved reputation for progress and thrift in all his undertakings., He is respected by all who know him as intelligent, honest, hard-working man, and is well known in the vicinity of his home. On February 4, 1860, Mr. Grow was united in Marriage with Miss Annie Wiles, the ceremony taking place in Springville township, and they have had children as follows; Clark E.; who died at the age of six years; Caroline A., wife of Thomas Bagles, a machinist of Towanda, Penn.; James L., a farmer of Rush township, Susquehanna county; John, who died at the age of twenty-five years; Alfred E. a molder, of Towanda, who married Eva Lake; Blanche V., married to Burton Thomas, who owns a farm in Springville; Edith, wife of Fred Thomas, who owns a farm in Springville; Charles, a farmer of Auburn township; Harry and Clara, twins, the former living at home, the later married to Zibe Lott; and Wileston T. and Burton C. living at home. Mr. Grow takes a deep interest in religious matters, uniting with the Baptist Church, to which most of the family belong, and in which he has held the office of deacon for six years. His political sympathies are with the Republican party. Socially he belongs to the G. A. R. and I. O. O. F., and he and his wife are members of the Daughters of Rebekah. Mrs. Annie (Wiles) Grow was born March 2, 1844, near Meshoppen, Penn. Her mother, Martha Boughton, was twice married, and Annie was born to the first union, but as she was only a young child when her mother wedded Martin Wiles she always went by her stepfather’s name. Mrs. Wiles lived to the advanced age of eighty-seven years. As the family consisted of eleven children Mrs. Grow commenced to help when but ten years of age, going to school winters and doing housework and spinning in the summers. She married Mr. Grow at the age of sixteen, Always studious, quiet and unassuming, she gained many friends, and she is an active Church worker, having from early life been a constant attendant of Sabbath-school and Church. She is president of the Mission Circle, and may always be relied upon in any good work.

Discharge Record on microfilm at Wayne County OH, Book 1 page 129:
Thomas M. Harris of Co. K 114th.  According to this record, he must have reenlisted on 21 Jan 1865 at Houston and was then discharged at Houston on 31 July 1865.  His engagements included the seige of Blakely, Alabama. His enlistment age was 20 and he was 5' 9", fair complexion, blue eyes, dark hair.  It states that he was born in Canada.  He was a farmer.  On his Oath of Identity, dated 16 Sept 1865, he was living in Chippewa Twp, Wayne Co OH.
 

There is a Thomas Harris, a domestic, living with John and Jane BROWN in Chippewa Township Wayne County OH in the 1860 census page 374.  He was 16 years old and was born in Canada.  I now believe this is the right man.

There are two Thomas M Harris in Missouri in 1870 census.  Cooper County, Palestine Township; and Johnson County, Washington Township

In the 1880 census Thomas was living in the household of  Mary BARNHART in Saint Louis, MO.  A message was left at my guestbook by Howard Townsend saying this [Thanks, Howard!]:
 Thomas M. Harris Co. G 120th Ohio was born May 24, 1844 in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. He had an older brother and sister. Parents died while he was young. He married Mary Jane (Hunt) Barnhardt (widow of William H. Barnhardt) in St. Louis 13 May 1882. He was a grain inspector. He died 22 Sept 1930 in St. James, Phelps County, Missouri and was buried in the Old Catholic Cemetery there.

He was appointed Sergeant from Corporal in 1863 [date incomplete] and the date is not given for his promotion to 1st Sergeant. He was transferred to Co. K 114th OVI, 27 Nov 1864. 
Promoted to Com. Sergeant 48th OVI, 24 July 1865....was a part of the "Field and Staff" for the 48th.
[enlisted at Dolyestown]

The large stone you see in this composite photo is actually for Abraham's parents.
Wayne County Burials book says that Abraham Hershey is buried at Easton Memorial Cemetery, Chippewa Township, Wayne co OH.
It also says Abraham Hershey of Company G [Civil War marker] has a small stone beside Benjamin & Susannah Hershey's stones. [Note:  I saw the tall stone for Abraham's parents and the markers for Elizabeth, George and John.  But did not find a stone for Abraham.  His military flag holder is there.] Possible additional siblings' stones at that cemetery indicate children of B and S Hershey....Elizabeth (died 18 Sept 1845 age 17dys), George F. (died 3 Feb 1842 at age 2 yrs.), and John (died 17 Sep 1844)  

Discharge record on microfilm at Wayne Co OH, book 2 page 94:
Abraham Harshey, Commissary Sergeant, 48th Battalion Ohio Veterans Infantry, was born in Wayne Co OH.  He enrolled at age 19.  He was 5' 8" tall, fair complexion, blue eyes and light hair.  He was a farmer.  The Oath of Identity was dated 22 Feb 1888.  He was of Easton in Wayne Co OH at that time.

The newspaper account of the 1897 Reunion of the 120th OVI stated that Abraham Hershey of Company G had died in the past year.

Wayne County Democrat:  29 July 1896, page 3
Easton, July 25th  [Easton is in Chippewa township, Wayne county, OH]
"There is a reaper whose name is Death,
And, with his sickle keen,
He reaps the bearded grain at a breath
And the flowers that grow between."
This skillful and inexorable reaper has invaded this field and cut down both the ripened grain and the young and beautiful flower.
Abram Hershey died at his home, two miles northwest of here, at one o'clock yesterday morning.  A few weeks ago he went to a hospital in Columbus to have a tumor removed.  By the strain upon his system by the tumor and the surgical operation, he was obliged to take to his bed, from which he did not again rise.  Mr. Hershey was a son of Benjamin Hershey, in his time one of the most prominent citizens of this part of the county.  His grandfather was Judge Wellhouse, one of the early and leading settlers in this part.  We do not know Mr. Hershey's age, but he was old enough to be a soldier (Co. G, 120th O.V.I.), and, we believe, a prisoner at Camp Ford, Tyler, Texas.  
[The roster does not indicate that he was captured at Snaggy Point.  So he probably was not at the Tyler prison camp.]  Upon his return from the war he married Clara, daughter of the late J. F. Sheets.  Mr. Hershey was a leading member of the United Brethren organization here and superintendent of Sunday school.  His death is a heavy loss to the church.  He had acquired considerable property, but a few years ago he became interested in some manufacturing enterprise in Cleveland and was forced to make an assignment.  Funeral took place Monday forenoon at the U. B. Church.  [In another obituary below this one in the newspaper, it mentions that Mr. Hershey was childless.]

The Commemorative Biographical Record of Wayne County Ohio, (1889) verifies that Abraham Hershey, son of Benjamin and Susannah (Wellhouse) Hershey, was this soldier in Company G 120th OVI.  His family was of Swiss descent coming first to Pennsylvania in 1734 and then to Ohio in 1830.  Abraham's siblings were George W., Simon B., William O., Mary C, Edward A. and Ella S.  Abraham was born 21 November 1842 in Milton Township, Wayne co OH.  After the war he returned to farming and was on his Chippewa Township farm since 1866.  His wife was Clara E. Sheets, daughter of John F. and Catherine [Schrantz] Sheets of Chippewa Township.  Benjamin was a member of the United Brethren Church.
 
 

About the Grave Registration Cards

When I look in theRoster book , I see in Co K 114th that Abraham Harshey, age 19 when he enlisted, had come from Co G 120th and went to the 48th as a Com. Sergeant on 24 July 1865.
There was a mistake in the original grave registration cards in Wayne County.  I think that they mixed up Abraham with his father Benjamin because the large stone at the cemetery is for Benjamin.  Abraham died 24 July 1896.  

 

There is more about the ancestors of Abraham at WorldConnect.  Type in his father's name.

HOOVER, Samuel    9 Oct 1862                                                                                                            Stark
Samuel, age 22, is listed in the Roster of Ohio Soldiers 1861-66 volume 8, page 262 as a private.
He was wounded 1 May 1863 in the battle of Thompson's Hill, Mississippi.  He was transferred to Veteran's Reserve Corps 1 Sept. 1863.

From Mickey, descendant of Samuel Harrison Hoover:

Samuel Harrison Hoover was born in Stark co OH 13 Mar 1840. His parents were Jacob and Sarah (METZ) HOOVER.  His siblings were Elizabeth (1841), Mary Ann (1843), Maria Harriet (1846), Henry Jacob (1851), Isaac Franklin (1853), Sarah Katherine (1855) and Ada Frances (1858).

Samuel married Margaret Louise OTT on 12 Nov 1863 in Canton, Stark County OH. Now here is the story:
Samuel was wounded in the left arm at the battle of Thompsons Hill Miss. on 1 May 1863.  He was then transferred to Co F of the 5th Veterans Reserve Corps on 8 Aug 1863. Samuel was then absent "without proper authority from October 23, 1863 to November 20, 1863." But the same report says "company morning report Oct 24/63 dropped as a deserter".  And in 1886 "the charges of desertion of October 23 & 24, 1863, against this man is removed under the provisions of the act of Congress approved July, 5, 1884.   It is a family story that the first child of Samuel and Margaret was born on the battlefield of the war and died of cholera as an infant.  At any rate, Samuel for certain went home and married during that time.  He was honorably discharged at Indianapolis, Indiana 14 Aug 1865.

Samuel and "Maggie's" children were: Mary (1864), Mamie (1865), John H. (1866). Charles (1868), Orrin Louis (1871), Dorothy (1873), Maud M. (1875), Ada May (1877), Adam (Addi/Addison) (1880), Raymond Thomas (1885). 

Samuel was a farmer and sawmill operator.  He lived with his family in Canal Fulton but later moved to Akron OH.  Samuel died there 12 Aug 1918; and Margaret, 9Feb 1930.  They are buried at Union Cemetery in Canal Fulton, Stark Co, OH.

Wayne County Burials book:
George Jackson is buried at Chestnut Hill cemetery in Doylestown, Wayne co OH. The book indicates that he was in Co C 120th OVI.  But since there is no George Jackson in that company, the marker was probably misread.  There is a stone for George H, father and Anna, mother with no dates. [Sorry, I missed taking a photo of these stones when I was at Chestnut Hill.]
There is a stone for Della K, 1886 - 1968.

______
 
 
I think this is the right man
in the 1880 census in Rosine, Ohio County, Kentucky
William Jamison, age 36 born in KY, a farmer.  His father was born in VA and his mother in KY.  Wife Margaret A. age 31 b. KY with her parents both being born in KY.  Children: Sarah E. age 13, Nancy D. age 10, Laura L. age 9, Ann J. age 7, William age 5, and Amanda age 1.  All the children were born in KY.

Note:  There was also another man by the same name and age living in Holmes County OH that year, but he had no family.  And if you read the Reunion note below, you can see that the soldier did have family and was living in KY.
 

At the June 1938 Reunion of the 120th OVI Willam Jemison, age 94 of Moorehead (Moorhead) KY was in attendance.  He was one of only 2 survivors of the 120th in that year.  [The other soldier was William Rittenhouse, age 95, of Ashland OH.]  Jameson held the record for the past 3 years of the reunion having four generations of his family present at the reunion.
Kentucky deaths show a William Jameson who died 14 June 1939.   Ohio Online Death CertificatIndex shows that there was a William RITTENHOUSE who dide 6 May 1939 in Ashland County.  So if these dates are correct for the soldiers, William Jameson may have been the last of the 120th soldiers to die.  

JOHNS, Jacob*    13 Aug 1862                                                                                                        
Jacob, age 39, is listed in the Roster of Ohio Soldiers 1861-66 volume 8, page 260 as a Corporal.
Jacob died 17 Mar 1863 at Young's Point, Louisiana.
[Enlisted at Doylestown.....Wayne County Roll of Honor in Hardesty's also says that he died on a hospital boat.]

Jacob JOHNS/JOHN of Co G 120th has a stone at Chestnut Hill, Chippewa Twp, Wayne County OH.
His stone is next to Margaret A JOHN  13 June 1831 - 18 Nov 1901.
[Wayne County Graves Registration Cards book:   Lot 25, block 1, grave 2.  Died 16 Mar 1863.  He was born 21 May 1821]
The old Wayne County Burials book says that Jacob John is buried at Chestnut Hill in Doylestown.  His stone, according to the book, is marked Co 8, 120th OVI veteran.  So I think that the stone was misread.....the 8 is probably a G. There is also a stone that says Jacob John, died Nashville Tenn. with a note in the book that asks if this is the same person as above. There is also a stone that says Jacob John, Mar 16, 1863 and the book says that the age is 11 yrs, 9 mo, 23 dys.  The 11 years could be 41, I am guessing, and so this could be a stone for Jacob also. [ I didn't see any third stone.  And the stone that was there has become too difficult to read.]
