John Kerstetter was born 16 February 1839 in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, the son of Michael Kerstetter, a farmer and laborer, and Elizabeth [Martz] Kerstetter. The family lived in Coal Township in 1840, 1850, and 1860.
On 30 September 1861, at Lykens, John enrolled in the 9th Pennsylvania Cavalry, and was mustered into Company B as a Private at Harrisburg on 7 October 1861. At some point in his service, he was promoted to Corporal. At his enrollment, he was 22 years old, he was 5 foot, 8 inches tall, had light hair, a fair complexion, and hazel eyes. He was a laborer and a resident of Northumberland County.
In the book, Yankee Cavalrymen, by John Rowell, a history of the 9th Pennsylvania Cavalry based on the diary of William Thomas of Lykens, a brief mention is made of John Kerstetter:

At the time of this writing, not much more is known about John Kerstetter's military service except that he died on 7 April 1864 at Cleveland, Tennessee.
On North Second Street in Lykens Borough, there is a G.A.R. Monument to the men who served in the Civil War from the Lykens-Wiconisco area. On the table of that monument, under the category of men who served who were not members of the Heilner G.A.R. Post is the name of John Kerstetter. The triangle symbol following his name indicates that he died of disease during the war.
At the time of this writing, no actual military or medical records have been seen to confirm John Kerstetter's death as a result of disease. Perhaps a reader of this blog has obtained his military records from the National Archives and would be willing to share those records by adding a comment to this post or by sending an e-mail to the Project?
At the time of his death, John Kerstetter was apparently not married since no widow applied for pension benefits. However, 20 years later, on 20 June 1884, John's mother, herself then a widow, did apply for benefits.
The Pension Index Card, shown above from Ancestry.com, confirms that the application was successful and that she was awarded benefits based on her son's service and sacrifice. The application file, available from the National Archives in Washington, D.C., was not consulted for this blog post. If any reader has obtained the file, hopefully he/she would be willing to share it with readers. Either add a comment to this post or send the information via e-mail.
Note: For readers who wish to obtain copies of pension application files, there is an expense involved – either in going to the National Archives in Washington, D.C. and copying the documents, or by requesting the documents by mail. It is beyond the scope and budget of this Project to obtain these records for every one of the nearly 3000 veterans who applied for these benefits and thus the Project relies on family members or other researchers to obtain the documents and share them. A project of Fold3 is to upload to that site the widow's pension application files, but this is a slow process and relies heavily on volunteers. At the present time, done in chronological order of application, pension files from 1867 are being added to the site. Once uploaded, the complete files can be downloaded by any subscriber to Fold3, or by any patron of a library that has a subscription to Fold3.]]>
Harry Kemble, brother of the late Isaac Kemble of Mount Carmel, died at ten o'clock last night on the old Kemble homestead, located near Kneass Station and Herndon.
On Christmas Day, Mr. Kemble went to the Zartman United Evangelical Church to build a fire in the heater. He slipped on the ice and sustained an injury to his ankle, and had great difficulty returning to his home.
Mr. Kemble was a a veteran of the Civil War, having serve two complete enlistments in the Federal Army. He was a member of the Mahanoy Lodge of Odd Fellows for the past fifty-five years, and was one of the oldest and most faithful members of the Zartman U. E. Church.
Although he lived on the farm all his life, except during the time he served in the Army, Mr. Kemble was a writer and poet of note, and was one of Northumberland County's best informed men.
The immediate survivors are a sister, Mrs. Mary K. Baum, Herndon, and a stepbrother, Jacob Drumheller, residing at Supply House, between Mount Carmel and Kulpmont.
The funeral will be on Monday, burial to be made in the Zartman Church Cemetery.
The news article is from Newspapers.com.]]>
During the Civil War, Isaac Kemble served with the 47th Pennsylvania Infantry, Company C, as a Corporal, enrolling at Sunbury, Northumberland County on 19 August 1861, and mustered into service in Harrisburg, 2 September 1861. At the time he was 22 years old (born 1839), was employed as a surveyor, and resided at Sunbury. He stood 5 foot, seven inches tall, was of light complexion, had grey eyes and light hair.
Isaac's enrollment was for three years, and at the end of his service, he chose to be discharged rather than re-enlist. The card above, from the Pennsylvania Archives, notes that on an unknown date, he was reduced in rank to a Private.
From Beauford, South Carolina, on 4 September 1862, Isaac Kemble wrote to his friend Emanuel Kawel in Berrysburg, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania:
Dear Brother Kawel,
I don't know whether I owe you a letter or you one. I forgot to note it in my diary. But I know it is the time to for me to write. We had a great time out on picket. We [Companies A, F, D, I, C.] went out on the 20th of August and came in on the 1st September. We were about – miles from Camp, stationed along the bank of the Coosaw. Our company occupied a good house for Headquarters. The time was very rainy and sometimes disagreeable. The gnats and mosquitos were dreadfully bad. Had to slap and flap about like cattle in flytime, but the devil can't chase these little gnats and the bite is extremely annoying. We saw only a few men on the rebel side of the river, though the other companies were shooting over all the time. We had to be on post every blessed night, no chance to sleep, and if we had chance, the critters would….
[Note: a portion of the letter is missing at this point].
By the last news from home, I learn that Brother Harry and nearly all the boys at home are off to the war. Well, good for that. We must have help to kill the rebellion and a good deal of help we need. I am sorry to hear that father is left all alone to do his work but the country must be saved at any risk or sacrifice. It was bad enough before this, but now almost all the boys are gone. Oh! My! won't there be many sorrowful hearts indeed. I sometimes pity their case. Tell one in your next letter whether you could make use of some $40 or $50 — need it I may perhaps send it to you at the pay day following the next, sometime in November. I want all the money I have to spare used by my friends. I know that your taxes may be heavy, so if I can help you any I will cheerfully do so. But perhaps you will have to go yet if Pennsylvania has to be subject to a draft. How would you like that? Then I would pity Harriet and Beckie and all the others.
Well, how are you all getting along now? Are you all well and happy? Hope you are. I am pretty well now, only subject to dyspepsia, which is sometimes very annoying, but I have done my duty every since in South Carolina.
Please excuse this short letter, as news is out of date now. We have no late news from the North. Write soon. Give my love to all.
Your sincere friend,
Isaac Kembel
On 26 September 1870, Isaac Kembel married Matilda Bickel. One source indicates that the marriage took place at the Oakdale Church in Washington Township, Dauphin County.
In 1891, Isaac applied for a pension (see card above from Ancestry.com), which he received and collected until his death, which occurred on 19 August 1909. Then, his widow applied and she received benefits until her death, which occurred in 1915.
Isaac and his wife Matilda are buried at the Herndon Cemetery in Jackson Township, Northumberland County, Pennsylvania. Additional information about him can be found at his Findagrave Memorial.
On 19 August 1909, the Daily News, of Mount Carmel, Northumberland County, ran his obituary:
Isaac Kemble died at 8:50 o'clock this morning at his home on East Avenue. Mr. Kemble died in the harness, almost literally, for he worked at his profession on the Oak Street paving until a few days ago, and ceased then because of the extreme heat and the importunities of his family. Heart failure is given as the cause of his death. The funeral will be held on Saturday, the interment being made at Herndon. Arrangements will be announced tomorrow.
Mr. Kemble is survived by a widow and six children, of the seven that have been part of the household. The children are: Edward B. Kemble, Manager of the Item, William Penn Kemble, Editor; Miss Lydia Kemble and Miss Laura Kemble, of our city; Dr. Adam Kemble of Washington, D.C.; and Frank Kemble, a student at West Point Military Academy.
Isaac Kemble was born in Jackson Township, this county [Northumberland], on 12 May 1839. He was educated in the public schools of the county and at the Old Pennsylvania College at New Berlin, of which institution he was a graduate in the classical and civil engineering course. He taught school a years prior to completing his course in college and for a number of years afterward in this state and in Iowa and Illinois, nearly thirty years in all. His authority to teach in this state was that of a permanent certificate.
He enlisted in the War of the Rebellion and served in the 47th Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers for three years and one month, nearly all of the time in the far South, being in a number of hot contests between the competing forces. After returning from the South, he spent a few years in the West, teaching and in mercantile pursuits.
Isaac Kemble and Matilda Bickel were married at Tower City, 25 September 1870. He came to Mount Carmel 26 years ago. In this community he has served the borough as its engineer a number of years and has been the official surveyor for many of the municipalities in the region. He was the President of the Mount Carmel Item Publishing Company, and was always active in the business of that publication. He was a member of Swatara Lodge, No. 267, F. and A.M. at Tremont, of Tremont Chapter No. 221, and the Prince of Peace Commandery, No. 39, at Ashland; He was Past Grand of Tower Lodge, No. 755, I.O.O.F., of Tower City, and Post Post Commander of Burnside Post, No. 92, G.A.R. He was a member of the United Evangelical Church and a trustee of the association here. He was a member of the church from boyhood before he enlisted for the war.
As a man, Isaac Kemble ranked high. He had the very laudable faculty of attending his own business to the exclusion of meddlesomeness in other people's affairs; he was dignified in his association with his fellow men; he was kindly disposed toward everybody; he was diligent in the prosecution of his business interests; he was a good husband and a kind and indulgent father; he was an honest man.

James Kilrain was born about 1839 in Ireland. At the time of the Civil War, he was living in Minersville, Schuylkill County and working as a coal miner. He first volunteered for the 16th Pennsylvania Infantry, Company K, as a Private, serving in this 90-day regiment from 8 April 1861 through 10 July 1861. Later in the war, he joined the 55th Pennsylvania Infantry, Company E, as a Private, serving from 1 March 1864 through his honorable discharge on 30 August 1865.
Kilrain was first discovered as a potential veteran from the Lykens Valley area when the name "James Kelhain" was discovered in the Reilly Township, 1890 Census. A widow, "Mary Moffat", reported that her husband had served in Company E of the 16th Pennsylvania Infantry from 8 April 1861 through 25 August 1865. Two piece of incorrect information were given – the company and the concluding date of service. Fortunately, there is an easy way to find the correct information.
Steve Maczuga's database of Pennsylvania Civil War Soldiers provides a search aid where the entire regiment, in this case the 16th Pennsylvania Infantry, can be brought up on one screen. Using that aid, the following was discovered:
A "James Killraue" was found in Company K, and his concluding date of service was 10 July 1861.
Using that spelling, the following card was located in the Pennsylvania Archives:
New information found on the "James Killraue" was that he enrolled at Minersville, was mustered into the regiment at Harrisburg, and was 22 years old at the time (born about 1839).
Using the regimental/company Pension Index Card grouping at Fold3, the following card was located in Company K of that regiment:
The above card shows that when the application for a pension was made on 4 November 1881, he used the spelling "Kilrain". It also shows that he served in the 55th Pennsylvania Infantry, Company E, that he did receive a pension, and that a widow applied and received benefits after he died.
Finding the information on his service in the 55th Pennsylvania Infantry was easy, although the spelling of the surname was slightly different in those military records – "Killrain." At the time of enrollment in that regiment/company, he gave his age as 25 (born about 1839), his occupation as a miner, and his residence as Northampton County, Pennsylvania [Note: this latter piece of information may be incorrect since Northumberland and Northampton counties are sometimes confused in the records]. Personal information about him included his height of 5 foot, 5.5 inches, and that his hair was brown, his complexion was florid and his eyes were grey.
What was the name of his widow?
According to the Pension Index Card version available on Ancestry.com, shown above, the widow's name was Bridget Kilrain. She applied for widow's benefits on 28 December 1907. Now, points of confusion are discovered. The 1890 Census appears to name a "Mary Moffat" as the widow of James (see below) – both are on the same line (No. 3). And, the pension application was not made until 1907.
However, a "line number notation" at the left side of the sheet seems to suggest that Mary should be on "line 2 1/2" and therefore was the widow of David Weir, who appears on 'line 2." The pattern of naming the widow after the name of the soldier is more evident on "line 6" of this sheet where William Devine is named and his widow is named on "line 7" with the notation of "line 6 1/2." It must be concluded that James Kilrain did not die before the 1890 census! It is therefore likely that he died closer to the date when the widow, Bridget Kilrain applied for benefits, 28 December 1907.
Proof that James Kilrain was still alive in 1900 was found in that census for Reilly Township where he is found living with his wife Bridget and daughter Lizzie and working as a laborer in a coal mine. The immigration date of 1854 from Ireland, as well as the marriage date of 1868, is also established from this census, though a question can be asked about the suggested January 1834 birthdate – which conflicts with the approximate date of his two military enlistments.
A search of Pennsylvania Death Certificate, which began being issued in 1906, produced no matching result for James Kilrain.
A search of Findagrave produced the gravestone photo show at the top of this post. James Kilrain, who served in the 55th Pennsylvania Infantry, is buried at the St. Vincent dePaul Cemetery, Minersville, Schuylkill County. The stone is of government issue and does not show the date of birth or death. However, Bridget Kilrain does appear in the Findagrave database. She died on 14 July 1910 and is buried in the same cemetery. Her memorial is not linked to her husband's.
A search of the Ancestry.com database (National Archives), Headstones Provided for Deceased Union Civil War Veterans, 1879-1903, produced no matching results. However, if the stone was requested after 1903, it would not appear in this database.
A search of Newspapers.com for the time period 1900 to 1910 resulted in no matching obituary for either James or Bridget, although various spellings of the surname were attempted.
At the time of this writing, the best estimate of the death of James Kilrain would appear to be between the beginning of 1904 (post Headstones database) to about December 1907 (pre widow's pension application).
Of course, the actual death date as well as proof of death should be in the pension application files, which were not consulted for this blog post.
There are still many unanswered questions about this veteran who was initially assumed to be "James Kelhain" and is now known to be James Kilrain. However, the research results in this blog post offer a springboard to to learn more about him.
Comments are invited.
George Jury was born on 2 March 1840 in Pennsylvania and died on 19 May 1912 in Halifax Township, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. During the Civil War he served in the 172nd Pennsylvania Infantry, Company A, as a Private. After the Civil War, he applied for a pension on 25 September 1890. He is buried at Long's Cemetery, just outside the Halifax Borough. After his death, his widow, Mary E. [Baker] Jury applied for benefits. Both George and his widow received those benefits, which were collected until their respective deaths. Mary died on 30 March 1935 and is buried next to her husband at Long's Cemetery.
Previously on this blog, it was mentioned that the name of George Jury appears in the Halifax Bicentennial Book as a Civil War soldier from the Halifax area. He also appears in the veterans' cemetery list for Long's Cemetery found in that same book. Another soldier named George W. Jury was previously profiled here. He served in the 47th Pennsylvania Infantry. It is possible that that George W. Jury was born in Halifax Township because he was baptized at Fetterhoff's Church, but the family moved to Perry County by 1850 and after the Civil War, he moved to Kansas where he died. In the profile of George W. Jury, it was noted that if he was born in Halifax Township, then he too belongs in the Halifax list. No proof has been seen of his actual place of birth although his obituary which appeared in a Kansas newspaper states that he was born in Perry County. In any event, the two Georges were very close in age and were descended from the same pioneer settler of the Lykens Valley area, Abraham Jury.
The ancestry of George Jury, 172nd Pennsylvania Infantry:
Parents: George Bretz Jury (1799-1884) and Anna Marie Shoop (1800-1850)
Grandparents: Abraham Jury (1753, Switzerland – 1805) and Elizabeth Bretz (1763-1829)
The ancestry of George W. Jury, 47th Pennsylvania Infantry:
Parents: Simon S. Jury (1815-1894) and Juliann Harman (1819- ?)
Grandparents: John George Jury (1794-1869) and Susanna Cooper (1800-1836)
Great Grandparents: Abraham Jury (1753, Switzerland – 1805) and Elizabeth Bretz (1763-1829)
Therefore, George Jury and George W. Jury were 1st cousins, once removed.
Several selected pages of the pension application of George Jury (1840-1912) of Halifax, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, are presented to show what was required of a veteran to prove that his disability was incurred during the Civil War. However, it should be noted that the original application was submitted after the pension laws were relaxed to allow "old age" be a sufficient reason for a benefit claim.
Four pages of the original deposition follow. Click on any thumbnail to enlarge the page.
In page 1, George Jury makes the claim that while on march from Yorktown, Virginia, to Hagerstown, Maryland and Warrenton Junction, in July 1863, he got "sore feet" as a result of the "dusty hot weather."
In page 2, George Jury notes that he has had sore feet ever since his discharge and that the sore feet "has disabled me from the performance of manual labor."
In page 3, he makes the claim that there is "pain in them that I can't sleep… [and] can't walk much." He also claims that he does get some relief from "rabbits fat" and other liniments purchased at stores, but the relief is only temporary and that the best remedy "is not to walk at all."
Finally, in Page 4 of the Deposition, George estimates that the "sore feet" have made him "about one half disabled" and "my sore feet have been about the same each year ever since discharge."
He signed the Deposition himself.
Throughout the Deposition, George Jury gives the names of others who served with him in the 172nd Pennsylvania Infantry, as well as neighbors in the area of Halifax Township who could testify in support of his claim.
On a summary page received by the Pension Office on 23 October 1891, a second disability was given as "diarrhea" which occurred after his return from the army, and although alleviated, he had a "pain across my abdomen" which at times was "so severe I am unable to to do any work." On this summary page additional information is given about his military service.
Mary Jury had to prove that she was married to George Jury when she applied for widow's benefits. Although there was no "official" record available, she stated that her maiden name was Mary E. Baker, and she married to George on 19 October 1865 at Millersburg by the Rev. Francis Lahr.
On the "Declaration for Widow's Pension," Mary stated that she had no living children under 16 years of age. She also had to repeat much of the information about her husband's military service. Genealogical records on Ancestry.com show that George and Mary had at least two known children: William J. Jury (1871-1949) and Harvey Grant Jury (1886-1984).
The Pennsylvania Death Certificate of George Jury states that he died of "valvular heart disease." From: Ancestry.com.

A blog post here on 16 May 2016, Was Robert Hunter of Tower City a Civil War Veteran?, has received a response from a regular research contributor, Steve Williams, who pointed out that he believes that the same Robert Hunter mentioned in the 1890 Veterans' Census for Tower City is buried in the Hunter's Valley Cemetery, Liverpool, Perry County, Pennsylvania as noted in the Findagrave Memorial. Liverpool is on the western side of the Susquehanna River and across from Millersburg.
The Findagrave Memorial has information contributed by Civil War author and researcher Dennis Brandt, who also is responsible for the York and Adams County Civil War Veterans Data Base, which is found on the website of the York County Heritage Trust. Information from Dennis has helped to uncover much about Civil War soldiers in the Lykens Valley area because of the interconnectedness of the areas surrounding the Susquehanna River. In addition to his work with the York County Heritage Trust, he supplies much of his research to Findagrave. And, on numerous occasions he has submitted information directly to this project.
Steve Williams noted that the 1890 Census information was incorrect in that Robert Hunter did not serve in the 172nd Pennsylvania Infantry, Company I, during the years indicated, 1862-1863, but rather served in the 173rd Pennsylvania Infantry, Company I, from 6 November 1862 to 17 August 1863. It was mentioned in the previously named blog post that he was not found in any 172nd Pennsylvania Infantry records.
Dennis Brandt noted in the Findagrave Memorial that Robert Hunter also served in the 208th Pennsylvania Infantry, Company I,as a Private, from 9 September 1864 through 1 June 1865.
As a basis for concluding that the Robert Hunter buried at Liverpool is the same person as the veteran identified in the 1890 Tower City Census, the Pension Index Card from Ancestry.com was referenced:
Susan Hunter, the widow, applied for pension benefits on 22 July 1901. Susan is also named by Dennis Brandt as the wife of Robert Hunter, but with unknown maiden name. By checking the census returns from 1860 through 1880, both Robert Hunter and Susan Hunter, with children are in Buffalo Township, Perry County, in 1860 and 1870, where he is working as a blacksmith. However, in 1880, Robert and Susan are living in Shamokin, Northumberland County, where Robert is working as a coal miner.
Susan was still alive in 1901 when Robert Hunter died. The Pension Index Card, shown below from Fold3, gives his date of death as 28 June 1901.
Was Susan with Robert Hunter in 1890 when he was enumerated in Tower City?
From the 1890 Census Substitute for Schuylkill County, shown above from Ancestry.com, there is a Robert Hunter, age 53, a blacksmith, living in Tower City. However, the spouse's name is given as Amelia, not Susan. Perhaps Susan's middle name was Amelia? The age for Robert Hunter is correct, the occupation is correct, and Tower City is correct.
It is not presently known when Susan died or where she died. She has no Findagrave Memorial. No Pennsylvania Death Certificate has been located for her. Known census returns for her give her birthplace as Maryland, so it is possible that after her husband's death, she returned to Maryland. There is a Susan A. Hunter, widow of Robert, named in Baltimore City directories into the early 1940s, but additional information is needed to determine if this is the same person.
In the absence of a maiden name, it will be difficult to trace her. The maiden name should most likely be found in the widow's pension application file, available from the National Archives in Washington, D.C. However, Dennis Brandt, who may have consulted that file, noted that Susan's maiden name was "unknown." Another other possibility in locating her maiden name is to trace the five children of Susan and Robert Hunter to see if any died in Pennsylvania and if their death certificates give a maiden name for their mother.
The five children are: Charles Wesley Hunter, born about 1859; Valeria Hunter, born about 1861; Harvey M. Hunter, born about 1864; Mary E. Hunter, born about 1867; and Emma C. Hunter, born about 1869.
Harvey M. Hunter died on 14 February 1938 in Newport, Perry County. Oh his death certificate, his father is Robert Hunter and his mother is Sarah Sheesley. Sarah's birthplace is given as Pennsylvania. Thus far, this is the only Pennsylvania Death Certificate located for one of the children and the information on it is not conclusive.
Susan's death date could also be in the pension application file, as the time her benefits were terminated.
Perhaps a blog reader of family member can offer additional information?
While it is fairly conclusive that the Robert Hunter found in the 1890 Veterans' Census is the same person who served in the 173rd Pennsylvania Infantry and is buried at Hunter's Valley Cemetery in Liverpool, some of the pieces of information cannot be reconciled, leaving some uncertainty, and other information is needed. If it can be concluded without a doubt, then the current Tower City veterans need to add him to their list of Civil War veterans and honor him by name on their local memorial.
The little that was previously known about George Washington Jury was found in a history of the Jury family entitled Portrait of Our Ancestors, pages 86-87:
George Washington Jury was born 29 December 1939, son of Simon Jury and his first wife Julianna/Juliann [__?__] Jury. He was baptized at Fetterhoff's Church, Halifax, Dauphin County, on 12 April 1840. The sponsor of his baptism was Jemima Hermann, single, and whether or not she was related to the mother is not known.
Both parents of George W. Jury were born in Dauphin County, and the 1840 Census of Dauphin shows that Simon was still in his father's home in that year…. Thus it is remotely possible that this first child was also born in Dauphin County. We do not have the 1840 Census for Perry County to determine if Simon Jury appears there that year. He is enumerated in Perry County in the 1850 Census.
George W. Jury married Annie Gish in Liverpool, Perry County, Pennsylvania, but no date of marriage was found. Annie Gish was born in 1841 at Newport, Perry County, Pennsylvania, daughter of Jacob Gish and Salome [Keiffer?] Gish. She died in 1918 in Holland, Kansas near Abilene and is buried with her husband at Newbern Cemetery, Abilene, Kansas.
George W. Jury died in December of 1918 [sic] at Abilene, Kansas. He served in the Civil War from 1861 to 1865 per Ruth Russle. He was a farmer and was affiliated with the River Brethren Church. He migrated with his family to Kansas between 1876 and 1878 since his daughter Mary [Jury] Nolf was born at Newport, Pennsylvania, in 1876 and the next child was born in Kansas in 1878.
Of the eight children of George Washington Jury and his wife Annie Gish we have descendants for only his daughter Mary. All the details contributed by Ruth Russell for other children are included below.
*Jacob Jury, born in Pennsylvania in 1866, died in Greencastle, Pennsylvania, date unknown, married Susan Magnum.
*John Jury, born in 1867 in Pennsylvania, died in 1869 in Pennsylvania.
*Benjamin Jury, born in 1869 in Pennsylvania, died in Abilene, Kansas, married Martha Mellinger in Kansas.
*Salome Jury, born in 1871 in Pennsylvania, died in 1921 in Bennington, Kansas, buried in Newbern Cemetery, Abilene, Kansas. Never married.
*Lizzie Jury, born in 1873 in Pennsylvania, died 1964 at Abilene, Kansas, married Henry Lenhard who died in 1951 in Abilene. Both are buried at Newbern Cemetery.
*Mary Jury, born 18 March 1876 at Newport, Pennsylvania, died 1 June 1963, at Van Nuys, California, married in December 1898 to Luther Slauson Nolf at Solomon, Kansas.
*Henry Jury, born in Kansas in 1878, died in Kansas in 1880.
*George Jury, born in Kansas in 1886 and died in Abilene, Kansas, married in Abilene to Alice Frymire.
It can be seen from the above biographical sketch, written more than 30 years ago, that with much new information now available on the Internet, corrections and additions are likely possible.
The obituary of George W. Jury, published in the Abilene Daily Reflector (Kansas), 10 September 1914, provides the first major correction. George died in 1914, not 1918 as previously reported in Portrait of Our Ancestors.
Obituary – G. W. Jury
George Washington Jury was born 29 December 1839 in Perry County, Pennsylvania; died at his home in Holland, Kansas, 28 August 1914. Mr. Jury served three years in the Civil War in Company D, 47th Pennsylvania Regiment [47th Pennsylvania Infantry]. On 12 September 1865, he was married to Anna Gish; eight children were born to them:
Jacob U. Jury; Johnnie Jury, deceased; Benjamin F. Jury; Salome A. Jury; Lizzie R. Jury; Mary E. Jury; Henry P. Jury, deceased; and George G. Jury. Five of them were with him at the time of his death. Mr. Jury united with the Brethren in Christ Church in 1868 and has been a consistent member since. Mr. and Mrs. Jury came to Kansas in 1878 and have resided here since. He was a great sufferer for the last few months of his life, but was always kind and patient. The deceased was highly respected by all who knew him. The family has the sympathy of a host of friends, as we know Mrs. Jury has lost a devoted husband and the children a loving father. The remains were laid to rest in the Newbern Cemetery; the services were conducted by Bishop Engle and Elder Cakerice. A large crowd of friends were present to pay their last respects to a friend whom they will greatly miss.
George W. Jury's military record is confirmed by the following documents:
He enrolled in the 47th Pennsylvania Infantry on 20 August 1861 at Bloomfield, Pennsylvania, and was mustered into service in Harrisburg on 31 August 1861 as a Private in Company D. At the time he gave his age as 21, his occupation as farmer, and his residence at Liverpool, Perry County. He was discharged at Berryville, Virginia, at the expiration of his term of service on 18 September 1864.
The Pension Index Card, shown above from Fold3, states that he applied for a disability pension on 21 November 1865. This very early application is an indication that he may have obtained a disability during the war and the documentation of that wartime experience would definitely be in the pension application file available at the National Archives in Washington, D.C. It is beyond the scope of this Project to obtain those files, so if any reader of this post can shed some light on what is in them and/or provide copies, it would be greatly appreciated!
The above card also confirms the death date of 28 August 1914 and the place of death as Kansas.
The widow applied for benefits on 14 September 1914, which she received and collected until her death. According to other sources, she died in 1918.
The Pension Index Card, shown above from Ancestry.com, shows that the widow's name was Anna Jury and that she applied for benefits from Kansas.
Another source of readily available information is Findagrave.
The grave marker at the Newbern Cemetery in Holland, Dickinson County, Kansas, names Company D of the 47th Pennsylvania Infantry as his Civil War service. Additional information can be found about George and his family at his Findagrave Memorial, including the maiden name of his mother as "Harman."
The Pennsylvania Death Certificate of one of the siblings of George W. Jury, Hannah Jury, identifies the mother's maiden name as Juliann Harman. Harman and Hermann are easily interchanged names, so it is possible that the Jemima Hermann who stood for George's baptism at Fetterhoff's Church in Halifax was the mother's sister – or perhaps the grandmother if the grandmother was not married.
The question of whether the George W. Jury who died in Kansas is the same George Jury who is named in the Halifax Bicentennial list of Civil War soldiers can answered with a "no" since that George Jury is buried at Long's Cemetery in Halifax. The question of whether George W. Jury belongs in that Halifax list should be answered with a "yes" since there is documentation that he was baptized at Fetterhoff's Church. And, whether or not Simon, the father, moved the family to Perry County before or after George was born, the family was clearly in Halifax in early 1840 for his baptism. Also, if Simon was in his parents' home in 1840, where was George, who was born in the last days of 1839? Only the heads of families are identified in the census returns prior to 1850, so it is possible that the 1840 census was misread by the researcher.
The photograph of George and Annie Jury is from a family collection.
I was able to find some information on the Isaac Houtz you profiled in a recent post.
First, I need to correct an error in your post. The 29 February 1864 and 30 April 1864 dates have nothing to do with Houtz's military record, they're the dates of the company's bimonthly muster rolls used to generate the record. All they mean is that Houtz joined the unit between 1 January and 29 February (it doesn't say when). It says that he transferred back on 11 April.
[Note: These dates were referenced to the New York record pictured below. The correction is acknowledged with thanks].
However, I found Isaac on a list of prisoners of war arriving at Annapolis on a steamer sent from Belle Isle under a flag of truce on 9 March 1864 in the Philadelphia Inquirer. I've attached a copy of the article. It says Isaac was admitted to a hospital in Annapolis.
Apparently Isaac was captured as a prisoner of war while with the New York unit but they didn't record it or seeming even inform his unit about it. So probably the details of his capture have been lost to history. I would recommend checking Isaac Houtz's carded medical records for his treatment at Annapolis and to see if he returned to his unit before his June death. Looking at his Pennsylvania muster record, I feel pretty confident the answer will be no, but we won't know for sure until someone checks the carded medical records.
This record seems to indicate Isaac joined the New York unit on 15 January:
[Note: The supplied record is from "U.S. Civil War Soldiers Records and Profiles," a database available on Ancestry.com. The source of the information is the New York Report of the Adjutant-General].
Thank you for this information, which should help get a clearer understanding of what happened to Isaac Houtz during the Civil War!
Corrections and additions are always welcome and can be sent via e-mail or added as comments to any blog post.
The complete article from the Philadelphia Inquirer is available through the on-line resources of the Free Library of Philadelphia.
A Civil War soldier named Daniel Jenney has been located in the Veterans' Card File at the Pennsylvania Archives. The back of the card notes that the "rolls also show the last name as Jenne." Since this is the only person located in military records with this first name and a similar surname, it can be assumed at the start of the research that the Daniel Jenne of Reed Township is the veteran who served in the 73rd Pennsylvania Infantry, Company D, as a Private, mustered into service on 16 September 1862 and mustered out with his company on 5 July 1865.
In checking the data base, U.S. Civil War Soldiers, 1861-1865, several other variations of the name are found on the Military Index Cards, including: Daniel Jenny, Daniel Jennie, Daniel Jene, Daniel Genny, and Daniel Genney. However, all this soldiers military records are filed under Daniel Jenny as shown below on the General Index Reference Card from the National Archives (available on Fold3).
Referring back to the Pennsylvania Veterans' Index Card near the top of this post, two other helpful pieces of information are seen:
The 73rd Pennsylvania Infantry also served at Gettysburg. The plaque for Company B on the Pennsylvania Memorial does recognize a "Daniel Genney."
No Pension Index Card has been located for the Daniel Jenne who served in the 73rd Pennsylvania Infantry, either on Ancestry.com or on Fold3. If the 1890 Census record is correct, he was alive and he would have been eligible for a pension by "old age."
There are several family trees on Ancestry.com which have a Daniel Jenne, including one born in Vermont about 1820, but there is no indication of Civil War service, nor is there any apparent connection to Pennsylvania.
So, the question remains: "Who was Daniel Jenne of Reed Township?" Is this individual associated with the 73rd Pennsylvania Infantry as shown above? Why didn't he apply for a pension in 1890? Why was he in Reed Township in 1890? Answers to these and other questions are sought by the Project and can either be attached to this blog post as a comment or sent by e-mail.
On 11 November 2015, a post entitled Obituary and Memorial to George W. Ely, provided information about his Civil War service in the 13th Pennsylvania Cavalry, his obituary, his family including widow Rebecca [Rudisill] Ely, and photographs of his grave marker and the plaque bearing his name in Lykens. A request for additional information about him resulted in the following e-mail from a family member:
I read your Civil War blog post about George Ely. I have some information about him not contained within that post. During the war, George and the rest of the 13th spent some time in Fayetteville, North Carolina. While there, he married Jane Wright, daughter of Hiram Wright and Sarah Bowden, 27 June 1865. Another soldier of the 13th, David Fields, acted as security for the bond. David was my 2nd great-grandfather. George then acted as security when David purchased a bond to marry Jane's sister, Sarah, 5 July 1865.
After George's death, Rebecca Ely needed to prove the death of Jane [Wright] Ely in order to receive her widow's pension. These notices were run in the Fayetteville Weekly Observer:
This ran 10 May 1915, page 5:
R. Renshaw of Lykens, Pennsylvania., has written here, asking for information as to Jane Wright, daughter of Hiram Wright, who married George Ely about 1865. Ely is now dead, and the second wife wants to get a pension, but must prove the death of the first wife.
If any can give the information it will be very gratefully received by an old widow, and the information sent to Messrs. Cook & Cook, this city, will be transmitted to her.
And this 10 June 1914, page 3:
Mayor McNeill gave us the following letter this morning, and it may be that some of the older residents can furnish the information desired:
Lykens, Pennsylvania, 30 May 1914.
Chief of Police, Fayetteville, N. C.
Dear Sir:–Would it be possible for you to furnish me with any information that will lead me to get the records of the death and burial of a certain lady who is supposed to have died and was interred in or near you city in the Fall of 1865 or Spring of 1866.
Her maiden name was Jane Wright, was married to one George Ely, who brought her to this place in the Summer of 1865, she however, did not remain here more than a few weeks and returned home again; shortly after she left here a letter was received by a relative of George Ely, stating that she had died, since which nothing has been heard about her.
The people who knew here here at the time have passed away as also has her husband and no information further than the above is known. It is very necessary that we should have some proofs of her death or whereabouts, if living.
Hoping you can be able to put me on the track of getting the information and that I can reciprocate later on.
I remain
Yours truly,
W. S. Young.
I hope this helps you in your research.
As a result of the e-mail, the following documents were located on Ancestry.com:
Marriage Bond:
Marriage Register:
Marriage Certification:
Continuing the research, reference is made to the Pension Index Card for George W. Ely, which notes his death date and fact that his widow applied for an received a pension based on his service. From the fact that she received the pension it can be concluded that her attempts to prove that George's first wife was dead were successful. However, without consulting the pension application files, available at the National Archives in Washington, D.C., it cannot be determined what proof was provided.
In searching the records of David Fields, nothing has been found to place him in the Lykens Valley area. His Pension Index Card, shown below from Fold3 indicates that he served in the 13th Pennsylvania Cavalry, Company C, from 2 September 1863 to 14 July 1865. According to the pension information, he died on 21 April 1917 at Pembroke, North Carolina, but state death records and cemetery records indicate he died on 14 April 1917.
David Fields is buried at McNeill Cemetery, Pembroke, Robeson County, North Carolina. His Findagrave Memorial does not indicate that he served in the Civil War as a Union soldier.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Talking to the local media at the winter meetings Tuesday, Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington said despite the impending Shane Victorino signing, the team wouldn't "rule out" acquiring another outfielder. Cherington also said free agent Cody Ross remains an option.
"Obviously I don't want to say too much about the specific nature of the conversations because they go back a ways," said Cherington of talks with Ross, who is seeking a three-year deal, while the Red Sox are looking at a two-year commitment. "As of now we haven't been able to find something that makes sense, but the door is still open and we'll see what else happens. Again, he has other options."
Cherington would not speak about the Victorino agreement -- which a source has told WEEI.com is worth three years at $39 million -- but did talk about such an acquisition in generalities. One of the aspects the GM discussed was the defensive qualities a player like Victorino might bring. The 31-year-old has primarily played center field throughout the past five seasons.
"In our ballpark, we'd like to have someone who's played a lot of center in right field at our ballpark, if we can," Cherington said. "There's guys out there that have done both. If you play a lot of center field and play in different parks, there may be a little bit of an adjustment, but he can figure out right field at Fenway."
The GM also addressed the Red Sox' strategy this offseason of paying over market value in order to keep yearly commitments more manageable.
"Just really trying to keep as many guaranteed years as possible within a certain range of age, trying to keep guys as close to the prime years as possible," he said. "I think anybody is trying to do that. That's been a focus. Really, we've been focused on short to medium-term deals and there happen to be, we think a number of a fits for the team this winter that kind of fit into that category."

I just made this today, and it was very quick to come together, and so full of flavor! Like several other reviewers, I made just a few changes, but kept the integrity of the base recipe intact. I used a 13 oz. box of Dreamfield's low carb pasta (because two of the people I made it for are diabetic. If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it; it tastes exactly like regular pasta, but doesn't raise blood sugar) and substituted some julienned sun dried tomatoes (packed in oil) instead of the plum tomatoes. I added a couple pinches of crushed red peppers too. And topped it off with some shredded Parmesan cheese. The dish was colorful with the fresh spinach against the red of the tomato and sausage, and the browned mushrooms. I did increase the garlic to 3 cloves from 2. And deleted the basil. This recipe is definitely a keeper, and I'll be making it again, for sure! Thanks Amber!!!
Although I had to sub quite a bit , the end result was basicly the same and was very tasty.Had to use wide noodles, regular turkey sausage, canned stewed tomatoes and veggie spray instead of oil. Also had some spinach to use up which I added, all in all it made a very good one pan supper, I did cook the sausage first, then drained the fat from the pan, while draining the sausage on paper towel before cutting them up. Thanks for the basic idea, next time I'll try and use the proper ingredients.
I was looking for something fast with what minimal ingredients I have on hand. This fit the bill. Chopped up about three roma tomatoes and grilled them with the sausage and basil. Skipped the mushrooms (I don't care for them). Threw in some fresh spinach and let it cook for a couple of minutes. Will probably add onions next time while cooking sausage. Love the ease and flavor of this recipe. Thanks!
I was at the grocery store and turkey sausage was on sale so I googled turkey sausages on my phone and found this recipe. I made it tonight and it was a big hit. I followed the recipe for the most part with a few tweaks for a true one pot meal: more garlic, more basil, Emeril's Essence, red pepper flakes, kale and I finished it with Parmesan cheese and a little olive oil. Also, the picture doesn't appear to be of this recipe.
I make something very much the same, but instead of basil I use arugula. I use egg noodles too.
Very good recipe, I will make it again. I followed the recipe exactly. If you don't add the basil, this would not be so good, like many of the other reviewers omitted and thought it was bland.
Well, follow the recipe or don't rate it.
We really enjoyed this recipe. I doubled it, and added baby spinach along with the sausage and mushrooms. I did have to cook off a bit of liquid. I think I'll try fat noodles next time we make it. The angel hair pasta was a little hard to incorporate with the sausage-mushroom-spinach mixture.
We just made this for dinner and loved it! We omitted the mushrooms (we don't like them) and used a can of diced tomatoes thrown in to simmer after sausage and garlic were cooked through. Delicious!! We also used a locally made fresh roasted garlic & herb linguini that added a great flavor!!
I have made this probably three times now and it has turned out great every time. The first time I used fresh tomatoes and kind of a spicy turkey sausage, the next time I didn't have mushrooms so subbed zucchini and used canned tomatoes and turkey keilbasa, and the last time I used the turkey keilbasa again, canned tomatoes, and fresh mushrooms. I use quinoa spaghetti due to allergies and all the flavor of this dish makes any kind of pasta taste great! Loved it, and the leftovers are even better!!
This was a great, quick weeknight meal. I used a can of petite diced tomatoes and added some grated parmesiano reggiono when I served it. Everyone really liked it and I'm looking forward to leftovers for lunch tomorrow!

Engineering Management & Technology faculty will offer information about the UTC Construction Management Program in a session on Wednesday, from 5:30-7:30 p.m. in the Maytag Conference Room in the Engineering, Math and Computer Science Building at the corner of Vine and Palmetto Streets.
"This session will provide an environment where either new or prospective students can gain a better understanding of the high market demand for this major and learn more about job placement and other opportunities," said Neslihan Alp, Ph.D., P.E., UC Foundation professor, assistant dean for Graduate Programs, and Research Engineering Management and Technology Department Head.
The B.S. in Engineering Technology Management (ETM) with the concentration in Construction Management will provide graduates with the knowledge, skills, abilities, and behaviors that are valued and sought by the construction industry both locally and regionally. The BS ETM program has recently been accredited by the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET)-Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission (ETAC) effective fall 2011.
A partnership including the UTC College of Engineering and Computer Science, Chattanooga State Community College, Cleveland State Community College, and Associated General Contractors (AGC) of East Tennessee established the degree program in fall 2008.
Students from Chattanooga State and Cleveland State community colleges may earn this degree by taking a 2+2 degree program, completing the last two years of coursework at UTC. The program requires 127 hours.
Associated General Contractors (AGC) of East Tennessee is the major sponsor of the Construction Management program.
Major and related courses are in the areas of Engineering, Engineering Management, Accounting, Management, English, and Mathematics.

What's wrong with the status quo?
Chris Phoenix: Tom Craver recently wrote on our blog, "I suspect if you want to use MM to break out of the current situation, a solar powered wish box is pretty much required."
That got me thinking: what is "the current situation?" Tom was answering a post about the rich-poor gap. But depending on how you look at it, there is room for several kinds of improvement. And not everyone will agree on what should be improved, and what is "part of the human condition" and should be left alone.
