He stood 5' 6" tall and had brown hair and blue eyes. A Civil War veteran, he enlisted in York August 4, 1862, and mustered into federal service at Harrisburg August 9 as a private with Co. K, 130th Pennsylvania Infantry. During the battle of Fredericksburg on December 13, 1862, a shell fragment struck him in the forehead, knocking him senseless. Surviving that, he was shortly hospitalized at Aquia Creek, Virginia, for dysentery and frostbite of the feet, then shot in the right leg near the knee at the battle of Chancellorsville on May 3. He honorably discharged with his company May 21, 1863, no doubt glad to be going home. Yet, six weeks later, with the coming of the Gettysburg crisis, he enlisted as a private with the 47th Pennsylvania Militia, serving July 2 - August 13, 1863. He moved west shortly after returning from the army and eventually married fifteen-year-old Ida Amanda Martinson December 30, 1875, in Prospect, Butler County, Kansas. Their known children are Mabel Anna (b. 10/04/84), Frank Elmo (b. 11/15/86), and Harry Morton (b. 09/12/88), and they lived in Wichita for a number of years. Dysentery haunted him all his life, but he died of "chronic myocarditis" in Sedgwick County, Kansas. Note: additional bio info provided by Dennis Brandt (#47232334)
