1ST WEST VIRGINIA INFANTRY - 3 MONTHS (COMPANY D) - 80 MEN The idea that my great uncle’s cousin served with him in Company D during the first 3 months of the call up grew on me. I decided to try and find out more about the other men in that company. The notes below are a collection of information that I collected from the internet. There are sets of history that I am nearly certain of, based on cross correlating 2-3 (or more) sets of records. There are others that appear to be correct, but I’m not certain of; those I marked with “!”. The rest of the men were each noted as having enlisted in Company D in May 1861. But, I have not been able to determine from the records, which set of histories applied to the individual. When I finished the search, I determined that this information, which contains corrections to many records as well summaries of personal histories, might be useful to other family members and researchers. Notes: 1) There are two privates, marked add here that are on the West Virginia unclaimed Civil War Medals1 list for Company D that were not on Linda Fluharty’s list2 or Rawlings History3.

 Trimbur (Primbur), George Corp.  Shuler, William Pvt. 2) There was one name, JOHN STAIGER, that was appears to have been listed as John Shuler in Rawling’s History, and likewise on Linda Fluharty’s website.

Pvt. Staiger was not listed on the W.Va. Unclaimed Medals list. This may be because there are no unclaimed medals for this soldier, or because his name has been missed due to the error in Rawling’s History.

3) Spellings of names and middle initials that I added or corrected are marked in red.

5) “! “indicates that the data or history may be correct, but is not well supported by records I found.

I’m happy to exchange information and methods with any interested researcher, and especially happy to make any additions or corrections others wish to share.

John S. Carlon - b. 5 May 1845 in Pa., d. 14 May 1919 in Macon County, Illinois. He was the seventh of eight known children of Joseph Carlon, Jr. and Sarah H. Ramsey. According to the 1877 History of Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, by S. W. and P. A. Durant, he was born on 20 May 1845, probably in North Slippery Rock Township. John married Elizabeth M. Graham of Neshannock Township, daughter of John P. Graham and Hannah Pearson in February 1865. This probably was just before John went to war. John and his family farmed in Washington Township in Lawrence County until, like his elder brother Paris, he enlisted in Company "I" of the 16th Pennsylvania Cavalry Regiment, on 16 February 1865 at New Brighton, Pennsylvania. According to his service record, he was described as 5'8" in height, of sandy hair and fair complexion, hazel eyes, and his occupation was farmer. He was mustered in as a Private, but was promoted to Corporal on 16 June 1865 and was discharged on 24 July 1865 at Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. His unit was at Appomattox, Virginia, when Robert E. Lee surrendered the Confederacy to Union forces. John and Elizabeth lived in Neshannock Township until early 1880, when they moved their family of six children, all born in Pennsylvania, to Clay County, Nebraska. In short order, they lost their infant son, Charley, in July of that year. The family remained intact through the time of the 1885 Nebraska state census for Clay County, but it appears that John and Elizabeth may have become estranged thereafter. John was said to still have been living in Nebraska at the time of his father's death in January 1889. Elizabeth died in Clay County, Nebraska in 1908 and was buried there in Edgar Cemetery, and by 1910, John was living alone in Macon County, Illinois. According to the Illinois state archives, John S. Carlon died on 14 May 1919 in Macon, Macon County.

William served three enlistments during the Civil War. One month after the first shots were fired at Fort Sumter, South Carolina, signaling the beginning of the war, William enlisted in a Virginia Regiment and served for three months. One year later, he enlisted in a Pennsylvania regiment for a period of nine months. During that time, he became ill with typhoid fever. Despite having been ill but fearing that he would be drafted, after recuperating at home for over a year, William again enlisted in a Pennsylvania Regiment for a period of one year. During this tour of duty, he earned the rank of regimental color sergeant. William was a farmer and laborer. He worked as a night watchman, coal miner, and is said to have helped dig the first oil well in Pennsylvania at Titusville in 1859. He died on July 3, 1883, at East Moravia, Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, at the age of 56 years, one month and 27 days. He was buried in a cemetery on the Zac Tindall Farm in Lawrence County, Pennsylvania. It is feared that this cemetery is no longer in existence, having been covered by slag from a nearby coal mine.
