Re: Patrick Broderick - 4th NH Volunteer Infantry

Patrick BRODERICK, of Co.G 4th NH Vol. Infantry, applied for, and received, a Civil War Pension - (as per his civil war pension card).

You can order his Civil War Pension Records from NARA for $75 for the complete pkg., which would include everything up to 100 pages.

Go to :

www.archives.gov/veterans/military-service-records/pre-ww-1-...

Use Form NATF85

In '04 I ordered my gggrandfather's (Pvt.John LEWIS of the 133rd NY Vol Infantry) pension records and received a ton of information, including records of his death in 1863 in an army regimental hospital, a record of his marriage to my gggrandmother, information on the birthdates and baptismal dates of their children, and much more that I would've never found elsewhere.

Good luck in your searches.

Mr. Len Traynor, who had done a lot of research on Civil War veterans (prior to the late Roy Parker, who was not the first, as is often falsely shown by Gray, who does not know a thing about Roy Parker, and had never known this decent gentleman, before his death) and had also worked on those who were born in Australia and New Zealand, and who had fought in the Civil War, had revealed, many, many years ago, long before Gray ever set foot on Australian soil, that a large number of men who had enlisted in New Hampshire regiments, had falsely stated that they were born in Australia, for a specific reason, known to themselves. Mr. Traynor had let us in on his research in this area years ago, but, thankfully, did not reveal this on the Internet, for he knew that there were those who would unscrupulously use his work, or take his data or images without his permission, and use it for their own selfish purposes, as was the case with a photograph of a Civil War veteran, in his possession. This was used without Mr. Traynor's permission, then when asked by Mr. Traynor why it was thus used, the user tried to claim that he had the photo for thirty years. Yet we knew that this was false, because this person had no knowledge of that Civil War veteran, at all, when he first contacted us in 2005. For this reason we rightfully do not reveal a massive amount of other data, or items that we have on Civil War veterans.

James G. Day was born in 1815, the son of Capt. John Day ( of Manchester, MA. ) and Rebecca George ( of Dunbarton, N.H. ), who married in Weare, N.H. in 1800. Capt. John Day had fought in the Revolutionary War from Mass. James G. Day, his son, died on Dec. 5, 1865. He had been a soldier in the 14th N.H. Vols.

Battle of Labadieville, LA, 1862. Union Killed & Wounded (mostly 8th NH Vols.)

Margaret_Buchanan — 2007-06-19 17:32:44Z

From a copy of newspaper clipping I have:

The Daily Delta, New Orleans, Volume XVII, November 1, 1862, Page 1, Column 2.

OUR KILLED AND WOUNDED

We are indebted to Major Strong, Adjutant General of this Department, for a list of the killed and wounded among the Union forces in the recent battle at Labadieville. As a matter of course our loss was much heavier in this engagement than that of the enemy, as is always the case when a larger body of troops attack a smaller force in a strong position and acting on the defensive. The heavy loss speaks volumes for the gallantry and bravery of our troops, and show with what intrepid courage they flung their resistless column upon the enemy, regardless of the storm of missiles hurled upon their center by the intrenched foe. When the history of this affair is written, it will be found to have been one of the most dashing exploits of the war. We omitted this morning to mention that the enemy’s troops in this action were all veterans of Shiloh and several other actions, and are considered the flower of the rebel Louisiana troops. But flowers fade!

His tombstone calls out his death in 1864 at Washington D.C., but cites a date a few months later.
So hoping someone can help me locate information that would clarify the information about the death of this John A. Preston, bur. Rumney.

But there was a permission for his cremation from his sons Timothy and Michael Purvis as per Patricia McManus (mother and Legal guardian) via Western Union Telegram stating the originating office was Allenstown, NH. I have been working on finding family of my fathers brother Raymond for seven years and just finally got this far so am still trying to get him into the family genealogy if any knows this Timothy or Michael Purvis or Patricia McManus I would love to hear from them.

The Plainfield, NH historian, Vernon Hood quotes in his papers, (on file at Dartmouth College), "Nathaniel S.Wheeler, US Colored Troops, 3 years, 125 Infantry; born Plainfield, NH; age 32; residence Enfield; appt. 1st Lt; mustered 25 April 1865; mustered as Captain Company G, 2 April 1867; discharged 3 Oct 1867; address Enfield." Book 1, p.199.

There is a ref. on Film # 589, Roll 93, Nat. Park Serv. Plaque # D 131, African Amer. Civil War Memorial.

Any thoughts!

Ed Bearss and I have collected various unpublished pieces he'd written on the Siege of Petersburg for publication.

I need the material typed in a word processing format for the publisher.

Any volunteers will be acknowledged in the book.

Looking for information on the 125th colored infantry. My ancestor, Nathaniel S.Wheeler of Plainfield, NH was an officer in this outfit. It was stationed in Kentucky.
