NATHAN D. Stoodley, claims Portsmouth, N. H., as his birthplace. He was born in that city March 9, 1823. His parents were Nathan D. and Sally A. Stoodley. Until the age of sixteen he attended the common schools more or less regularly, supplementing the knowledge thus gained by a wide range of reading. As a business man he has always been identified with the shoe trade, as maker, manufacturer, and retailer. When President Lincoln issued his call for three hundred thousand more troops in the summer of 1862, Mr. Stoodley, then a resident of Peterboro, N. H., raised a company of one hundred men and was commissioned captain. This company joined the 13th New Hampshire Volunteers. under command of Col. A. F. Stevens, and participated in many of the battles of the war. In 1864, for “meritorious work in the battles around Richmond," he was promoted and became a major. He had the honor of commanding and leading the first Union regiment into the city of Richmond upon its Capitulation. Major Stoodley was wedded to Rebecca A. Goldthwaite, of Peterboro, N. H., Dec. 15, 1850. One daughter, Sarah Lizzie, wife of Francis E. Appleton, of Lowell, resulted from the union. April 1, 1891, he entered upon the duties of postmaster of Reading, a position he has since filled most creditably. He has been an active member of the masonic order for nearly forty years; was master of the Peterboro Lodge, and first master of Good Samaritan Lodge of Reading; was first high priest of Reading Royal Arch Chapter. He also holds membership in Veteran Post 194, G. A. R.. and the Loyal Legion.
