Notes for Warren J Taylor:
I never met my grandpa is he has already passed away by the time I was born the same is true with my grandma, Uncle Orlo and Lawrence had also passed away. One time when I was in Tennessee I met with Lois the wife of Harold Taylor my cousin. She took me out to where Warren lived on this farm by Manchester. It was not too far from uncle Floyd’s house, the house was all gone but the foundation was there and so was the well. It was a shame he worked his whole life and it is all gone.other than that I do not know any more about my grandpa except he died of tuberculosis. My grandma on the other hand died of diabetes I know she’s in heaven if I get there I will thank her for passing that gene on to me. As I do my genealogy work I find diabetes runs in our family. That’s about all I can say about my grandma and grandpa.

One of the most important factors in the reclamation and preparation of virgin farmland for cultivation was drain tile. A mill for the production of much needed item was established about
1880 by C. P. Taylor. The mill was near the center of the Township, at a location where a supply of clay, suitable for the tile production, was available.
The business thrived for many years, producing large quantities of the useful item in several sizes. The operation, obviously, was limited to the non-freezing months, but served as a source of part-time employment for many local men throughout the years.
Mr. Taylor was succeeded in ownership and management of the plant by William T. Lanning, a son in law of Jared Tingley Sr. Mr. Lanning continued the operation for several seasons. Clarence Adair next acquired ownership of the property, which included the adjacent land of about eighty acres, and continued the production of drain tile until competition and a dwindling market forced the gradual suspension of production, and, finally, the abandonment of operations and razing of the mill.

Jacob, was born in 1865. They resided on the home farm until 1867 when they again took residence on their own farm. Here their second child, Elsie Catherine, was born in 1868. Isaac sold his farm in 1871 to James Reese and bought the farm of Rebecca's father, Adam Beaver, located in Camden Township, Hillsdale County, Michigan. Here a daughter, Ida Bell, was born in 1871. the family lived on the Beaver farm until 1874 when they exchanged their home for the front forty acres of the Anson Smith farm which laid across the road from the Church of God. Here a son, George W. Kintigh, was born in 1874.
They resided on the Smith farm but a brief time when they sold it (1875) and bought the original Kintigh homestead which his father had vacated in 1866. Here they resumed their residence and remained until the death of Isaac in 1908. Four more children were born to Isaac and Rebecca on the old home acres--Maudie Dell (1878), Irvin D. (1879), Devilla Vince (1883), and another boy who died in infancy.
Following the death of Isaac in 1908, the estate was settled and the farm was acquired by Fred Brown and the title to the historic farm passed from the Kintigh family. Rebecca established a home in Camden Township where she resided until her death in 1930."

Notes for Jacob Elmer Kintigh II:
"The Hills of Home" written by Robert K. McLain and published in 1969. Page 69: "C. Jacob Kintigh II, eldest child of Isaac and Rebecca, married Margaret Ansley, daughter of Edward and Mary Catherine Ansley. they established their first home in the local area and had four children--Lottie (1886), Glen (1888), Faye and Grace. Only Lottie and Glen survived to adult stature. Following the example of his father-in-law, Edward Ansley, Jacob Kintigh embarked in the grain threshing business. In 1891 he purchased a new steam traction engine, taking delivery at the railroad in Montpelier. It is related that the proud young man began the day with enthusiastic anticipation, promising to announce his approach to the family home by the tooting of his whistle. Unfortunately, the whistle was not to be heard. Disaster struck less than one mile from their destination. On a narrow grade in the road, Jacob misjudged his course in the darkness and the engine slipped sidewise and tipped over on its side. Dismay ensued, and briefly, Jacob was a worried young man. However, with the help of cooperative neighbors, the engine was righted, the engine company helped with the repairs, and Jacob was soon well-established at his chosen occupation.

OBITUARY
STEUBEN CO. REPUBLICAN PannsylvaniaGE 3
AUGUST 3, 1870
Joshua Taylor residing a few miles north of Hall's Corner,Cambria Twp 1, Township Hall, 7249 Cambria Rd., Cambria Michigan, committed suicide on Saturday last by taking strychnine. This man was brought from Pleasant Lake last spring, and placed in the county jail on a charge of wife whipping. Fits, domestic trouble and insanity will make most anyone commit suicide.
In the 1870 census of Branch County, Michigan Joshua Taylor is listed as living in Algansee Township, he is a day laborer, age 31 born in Pennsylvania. He is listed with his wife, Annie, age 23, born in Ohio, daughters Sarah, age 4 born Indiana, and Mary, age 1, born Michigan.
Joshua E. Taylor enlisted in the 29 Regiment Indiana Infantry County, A on August 10, 1861 in Angola, Steuben County, Indiana for a period of 3 years. He was mustered into service at Camp Jackson on August 23, 1861. He is listed as a Wagoner in this regiment. From May to July of 1862 he is listed as a Teamster. Sometime between July and November 1862 he was taken prisoner at Lawrenceburgh, Kentucky. December 13, 1862, at Camp Dennison, Ohio, he was dicharged from the military on physical disability. He is also listed as being discharged November 15, 1862 in Louisville, Kentucky for the same reason. From May 1 to October 31, 1862 he is listed in County, I of the 4th Regiment Paroled Prisoners, U.S Army. This organization was formed from paroled prisoners of war for duty campatible with their parole by G.O 72, A.G.O., of June 28, 1862, and the members were returned to their commands, from time to time, by G.O. No. 10, A.G.O.. of Janaury 10, 1863 and subsequent orders from the A.G.O., declaring the exchange of paroled prisoners and directing their return to their commands. One description of Pvt. Joshua E. Taylor lists him as 21 years old, 6 feet tall with dark complexion, dark eyes, dark hair. On his disability for discharge papers he is listed as being 23 years old, 6 feet tall, light complexion, light hair, grey eyes. he is also listed in these papers as being a farmer residing in York Center, Steuben Co, Indiana, and being born in Butler County, Pennsylvania. According to his Discharge papers, dated December 15, 1862, Camp Wallace, it states that he is unfit for duty and discharged by reason of Surgeons certificate and G.O. #36 of 1862. The reason goes on to stated that his discharge is due to a deformity and disability of his left arm which chiefly existed
before enlistment. In a notation from the War Department Record and Pension Division dated March 11, 1891, it states that Joshua E. Taylor is a veteran by reason of subsequent service in the 22nd Ohio Battery Light Artillery.
Addition information on Joshua's service in the 22 Batt. Oh. L.A. comes from the Records and Pension Division. It states that Joshua E. Taylor enrolled as a private in ths regiment on March 7, 1863, and mustered out with this regiment on July 13, 1865. He held the rank of Private while in this regiment. Description of service states that on August 31, 1863 he was absent with leave (detailed on fatigue duty). On December 31, 1863 he was absent and had gone to Richmond, Kentucky with ambulance by order of the Col. On April 30, 1864 he is listed as deserted from Cumberland Gap, Tennessee on March 5. On February 28, 1865 he returned from desertion without loss of pay or allowances. It was later determined from military records that Joshua's charge of Desertion on March 5, 1864 were false. He was captured at Cumberland Gap, Tennessee, March 2, 1864, confined at Richmond, Virginia May 6, 1864, admitted to Hospital 21 Richmond, Verginia. May 6, 1864, convalesant, returned to prison May 7, 1864. Paroled at Aikens Landing, Virginia May 8, 1864. Sent to hospital camp parole May 13, 1864 discharged from hospital May 14, 1864.

It was determined that this charge of Desertion was also false and that the soldier was absent without leave from on or about December 18, 1864, to on or about February 1, 1865. Medical records show that on most of his stays in the hospital he was given no diagnosis and he was returned to duty. Although his hospital records show that he did suffered from convulsions on March 28-29, 1865.
On June 6, 1891, Joshua's widow, Annie C. McKinnon applied for his pension. The pension number is 517467, and she is listed as a resident of Crystal, Montcalm County, Michigan. In her application for his pension she claims that his death was due to a disease that he incurred from his service in the army. She also states that she has remained his widow until November 6, 1878, when she married Donald McKinnon. In another document it states that Joshua died of spasms or hydrophobia (Rabies). On another document she states that Joshua's death was due to spasms resulting from the effects of a bite by a mad dog, while in the service. Three General Affidavits were obtained to verify the information on Joshua. On March 30, 1891, Sarah Robbins age 73, of Crystal, Michigan and John Barger age 45 of Ferris, Michigan both state that they were well aquainted with Joshua E. Taylor from his discharge from the service, until his death. They both stated that he suffered from spasms, the cause of a mad dog bite. They stated that he often had spells which rendered him unconsious, and that he often took Strychnine to alieve and quiet the pain he suffered. And that finally from an overdose of Strychine, caused his death. They both stated that they had personal knowledge of this by being aquainted with him and observing his conduct from time to time, and knew that he suffered terrible during the stated time with spasms, the result of blood poisoning from a mad dog bite. John Barger writes another affidavit stating that he had known the widow Annie since she was a small girl, and that she was never married before her marriage to Joshua Taylor and that she remained a widow after his death until 1878 when she married Donald McKinnon. He goes on to state that he knew Joshua Taylor from the time he was a young man, and that he was not married prior to his marriage to Anna C. Hively. He states he knows this information because he was a neighbor to them. The other affidavit is from Sarah Snyder, age 74 and a resident of Ithica, Michigan. She states she knows Annie C. McKinnon, and know her children Sarah S. whose last name is now Lautis and Dessie E. whose last name is now Fando. She also states she was present at each of the births of Annie's children, in the capacity of a nurse. She verify the birthdates of the children and that Annie and Joshua were the parents. This application is eventually rejected, and in a document dated October 13, 1896, it states that the Pension is rejected on the grounds that the soldier's death from an overdose of strychnine was not due to his military service.
Notes for Anna Cristena Hively:
Annie C. Hively appears to live in several different locations after the death of her husband, Joshua E. Taylor. When she married her second husband, Donald McKinnon in 1878 she is listed as a resident of Tuscarora, Cheboygan County, Michigan. When she files for Joshua Taylor's pension in 1891, she is listed as residing in Crystal, Montcalm County, Michigan. In the Widow's Pension document, that was rejected dated October 13, 1896 she is listed as a resident of Connorsville, Dunn County, Wisconsin. In the last Widow Pension document dated March 1904 she is listed as residing in Wheeler, Gratiot County, Michigan. This claim too was also rejected on the basis that she remarried prior to the passage of the act of June 27, 1890. The first claim was rejected on the basis that Joshua's death due to a overdose of strychine was not a result of his service in the war. In a letter dated September 24, 1892, from Annie's step father, Jacob S. Snyder to Honerable G.B. Raum, Washington D.C., he writes; Dear Sir, I wish to call your honerable attention to a matter of Bounty and Pension claim of Annie McKinnon, Crystal Lake, Montcalm County, Michigan, a widow of Joshua E.

The History how Warren started in Ind. and died in North Carolina. The 100th Reg. Ind. Vol. was mustered into the service on the 10th of September, 1862 with Sanford J. Stoughton as Colonel. On the 11th of November, 1862 the regiment left for Memphis, Tenn., arriving there on the 16th. The regiment was assigned to the Second Brigade, First Division, Army of the Tennessee, and on the 26th moved with an expedition through Northern Mississippi, having Vicksburg for its objective point. This movement, however, was unsuccessful, owing to the surprise and capture of Holly Springs by the rebels. the column then returned to the vicinity of Memphis, and the regiment was assigned to garrison duty at Colliersville, and as guards along the Memphis & Charleston Railroad. June 9, 1863, the regiment embarked on transports and joined the army of General Grant at the siege of Vicksburg, arriving in front of the rebel works on the 14th. The regiment took part in the siege of Vicksburg, and after its surrender moved with Sherman's army upon Jackson, Miss., arriving in front of that place July 11. Five days were occupied in the siege of Jackson, the regiment being constantly engaged. On the 16th the rebel army evacuated and our forces entered the place and destroyed its military resources. During these movements the regiment was commanded by Lieutenant Albert Heath, and formed part of the First Brigade, First Division, sixteenth Army Corps. From Jackson regiment marched to the Big Black River, where it remained in camp during the summer. September 28, the same year, the regiment marched to Vicksburg, embarked on transports and sailed to Memphis, arriving there Oct. 9,. The regiment at this time belonged to the Fourth Division, Fifteenth Army Corps. It moved with its division on a rapid march across the country to Stevenson and Bridgeport, Ala., thence over Sandstone Mountain, and down Lookout Valley to Trenton, Ga., and succeeded in turning the left flank of Bragg's army, then in position upon Lookout Mountain. This column secured a foothold on the mountain and drove the enemy from its position, but without following in pursuit pushed for Chattanooga, which place it reached after a rapid march, on the M49 of November. On the 26th the column moved upon the enemy's stronghold on Mission Ridge, and took part in that severe battle. Its division gained the crest of the hill and held the position, notwithstanding the concentric fire of the enemy and his repeated assaults. The fight lasted from ten o'clock in the morning until dark, and the attack on the enemy,S left was so persistent as to draw vast masses of the enemy to that flank, and enable General Thomas to break through the enemy's center. In this battle it suffered a loss of 132 in killed and wounded. Lieutenant-Colonel Heath was severely wounded early in the action, and Major R. M. Johnson assumed command of the regiment. The next morning the command moved in pursuit of Bragg's army as far as Graysville. It then moved toward Knoxville, for the purpose of relieving General Burnside. This was accomplished, the head of our column reaching Knoxville on the 6th of December. But a few weeks before that, this
army had left the banks of the Tennessee River with only two-days rations, and no extra clothing, and during that time had fought a severe battle, and marched over 800 miles through mud, rain and snow, part of the command barefooted, and yet all endured without a murmur. The regiment remained in camp at Scottsboro until May 1, 1864. The entire army of General Sherman moved from Chattanooga early in May, 1864 on its campaign against the "gate city of Georgia," Atlanta. The two hostile armies were separated by Rocky Face Ridge, cloven by Buzzard's Roost Gap, through which runs the railroad. this pass was so fortified as to Render it unapproachable. Sherman decided to turn the position. The army of the Tennessee moved through Snake Creek Gap and threatened the enemy's rear at Dalton. The regiment was attached to this army and took part in all its movements and battles, being engaged at Dalton, Snake Creek Gap, Dallas, New Hope Church, Big Shanty, Kenesaw Mountain, Kickajack Creek, Chattahoochie River, Decatur, Atlanta, Cedar Bluffs, Jonesboro and Lovejoy's Station. The regiment then moved with its corps to Atlanta, and camped at East Point, after marching and fighting nearly 100 days. On the 3d of October the regiment marched with its corps in pursuit of Hood, and after forced marches through Northern Georgia and Alabama, drive Hood across the Tennessee River, left General Thomas to meet and check his further career, and returned to its old camping ground near Atlanta. At daybreak on the 14th of November the regiment moved with the column for Savannah and the sea. Atlanta lay behind, a mass of smoldering ruins-before was an untrodden path, an unknown enemy and adventure. The march of that army was marked by destroyed railroads and a ruined country. The regiment was assigned to the Second Brigade (Walcott,s), First Division, Fifteenth Army Corps, in this march. On the 22d of November, near Griswoldsville, Ga., its brigade was engaged in a desperate fight. Our position was defended by a Slight Barricade. The enemy made an assault with a largely superior force, and four pieces of Artillery; he was, however, completely repulsed. The action continued four hours, and the enemy made several assaults, only to be met with severe loss. General Walcott was wounded, and Colonel Patterson, of the Ninety-seventh Indiana, took command of the brigade. Forty-nine prisoners were captured, and the regiment was complimented by the commanding General. After a perilous march through almost impassable swamps and morasses and over swollen steams, the column debauched in front of Savannah on the 10th of December, and that city was entered by our army on the 23d. From Savannah the regiment moved with its corps by steamer to Beauford, S. C., and thence through the Carolinas, capturing successively Branchville, Columbia, Georgetown and Cheraw S. C., And met the enemy at Bentonville, N. C., where a severe battle ensued, and the enemy were defeated and driven from the field. The column then moved north,( it was this march Sampson County, North Carolina, at Mills Creek N. C. that Warren J. Taylor drowned.) The column then moved to Goldsboro, reaching that place March 26, 1865, having marched 1,300 miles and fought seventeen battles since leaving Chattanooga in May, 1864. The regiment remained at Goldsboro until the 10th of April. It then moved with the army to Raleigh, where it remained until after the surrender of Johnston's army. The regiment then marched by way of Richmond, Verginia., to Washington, D. C., reaching that place May 20, 1865. The regiment remained in camp near Washington until June 9, 1865, when it was mustered out of service, the remaining recruits being transferred to the Forty-eighth Indiana, with which organization they continued to serve until its muster-out at Louisville, Ky., June 15, 1865. If Warren J. Taylor would not have drowned on March 22, after all the severe battles, in the Civil War and lived 3 more months, he would have come home to Indiana, and went on to live in Tennessee, like his brother Cornelius P. Taylor. Newton Grove, Sampson County, North Carolina. Bentonville Battleground State Historic Site on US701. Mill Creek is just up the road. The last battle of the war.

Bentonville Other Names: Bentonsville Location: Johnston County Campaign: Campaign of the Carolinas (February-April 1865) Date(s): March 19-21, 1865 Principal Commanders: Maj. Gen. William T. Sherman and Maj. Gen. Henry Slocum [US]; Gen. Joseph E. Johnston [CS] Forces Engaged: Sherman’s Right Wing (XX and XIV Corps) [US]; Johnston's Army [CS] Estimated Casualties: 4,738 total (US 1,646; CS 3,092) Description: While Slocum’s advance was stalled at Averasborough by Hardee’s troops, the right wing of Sherman’s army under command of Maj. Gen. O.O. Howard marched toward Goldsborough. On March 19, Slocum encountered the entrenched Confederates of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston who had concentrated to meet his advance at Bentonville. Late afternoon, Johnston attacked, crushing the line of the XIV Corps. Only strong counterattacks and desperate fighting south of the Goldsborough Road blunted the Confederate offensive. Elements of the XX Corps were thrown into the action as they arrived on the field. Five Confederate attacks failed to dislodge the Federal defenders and darkness ended the first day’s fighting. During the night, Johnston contracted his line into a “V” to protect his flanks with Mill Creek to his rear. On March 20, Slocum was heavily reinforced, but fighting was sporadic. Sherman was inclined to let Johnston retreat. On the 21st, however, Johnston remained in position while he removed his wounded. Skirmishing heated up along the entire front. In the afternoon, Maj. Gen. Joseph Mower led his Union division along a narrow trace that carried it across Mill Creek into Johnston’s rear. Confederate counterattacks stopped Mower’s advance, saving the army’s only line of communication and retreat. Mower withdrew, ending fighting for the day. During the night, Johnston retreated across the bridge at Bentonville. Union forces pursued at first light, driving back Wheeler’s rearguard |
