Railroad Conductors of the United States 1856.

In 1856, there were over 500 Railroads and 80 branches. Many were small lines and only run a few miles will other were longer. There were many more Railroads then I have put here. These roads were in name only and have not been built yet and well not be found on this list. This list is of the ( Conductors ), only. Although I would like to have been able to listed the trains engineers but they were not listed unless they were undre another title. I have listed the name of the Railroads only I left off were the line run too and the miles of the line. If your interested in that information I will give it up on request. These Railroads will be listed by States.

Patrolman James Powers Chicago 1862.

The following was taken from the History of the Chicago Police Department, printed 1915.

James Powers, thought he could handle most anything that came his way.  But in the winter of 1862, he met his waterloo in the shape of "Big Denny" O'Brine, an Iowa tough who visited Chicago for a three week's drunk.
 
O'Brien was "Whooping it up" one day, driving up and down Clark Street, breaking the speed limit.  Powers halted him and was attacked and terribly beaten with his own club.  O'Brien escape.  Months later, when just back on the force Powers was thrown against a curbstone in a fight with a burglar and received internal inuries.  He was granted a furlough and a few week's later dropped dead. 

Authors note.  Driving laws in 1862?  Most large city and most small towns had driving laws.  Mr. O'Brien must have been driving a buggy or wagon.  A one horse buggy or wagon could weigh up to 1200 to 1500 hundred pounds. A one horse buggy at a full run could reach speeds up to 25-30 miles anhour.  That's the same as being hit by a car today.  More people were killed by being hit by a horse than a bullet.                    

Richard Cayford New Jersey Loyalists 1776.

I couldn't find any family information on Richard Cayford, all I can give you is below.

Richard Cayford, in the minutes of the committee of safety of the province of New Jersey, January 12, 1776, we find a memorial concerning the arrest of this man with two other inhabitants of the county of Cumberland, “Convicted of being enemies to his country, by using their influence with the ignorant and unwary to raise a party to oppose the measures adopted for redress otgrievances, cursing and ill-treating all congresses and committees, and refusing to give any reasonable satisfaction for their exraordinary conduct.” It was found necessary by the committee to “Use spirted evertions for the discouragement of such behaviour.”

Cayford was then placed in close confinemont, required to pay charges of apprehension and give security for his good behaviour in the sum of fifty pounds. Nevertheless his toryism was too strong for prison bars or legal bonds and he next appears in the following year as a Captain in First Battalion, New Jersey Volunteers. He remained in this organization until 1781.

Lydia ( Boggs Shepherd ) Cruger.



February 26, 1766--September 25, 1867



Lydia Boggs was born February 26, 1766, in Brekeley county, West Virginia. In 1768 the family removed to Youghiogheny, and thence in 1771, to Beeler's fort ( Now Uniontown.) In 1777 they lived on Buffalo Creek, where Captaain John Boggs commanded a militia company. In August 1781, the Boggs household removed to a spot three miles below Wheeling but in 1782 retreated to Fort Henry and were present during the second sige. Shortly afterwards Lydia married ( 1785 ) Moses, son of Colonel David Shepherd, and lived at his homestrad until her husband death in 1832. The following year she married ( 1833 ), General Daniel Cruger, but kept her home at the old stone mansion on Wheeling Creek until her death in September 1867.

James W. Ricker West Vigrinia.



To enlarge push on the photo.



Lieutenant James W. Ricker, mustered in November 8, 1861, age 20, was in company H., Promoted from Second Lieutenant Co. H., in company A., now 21 years, was promoted from First Lieutenant Co. H.

The following was taken from the history of the Second West Virginia Cavalry. Although the following was taken from the pages 133-34, of it's history it was to long to put here this will be a highlight of the event, and not word for word.



Lieutenant James W. Ricker was in command of company H., After a battle with the enemy they sat the woods a fire. After the battle it was found that the enemy had left a wagon of powder behind. Lieutenant Rick was ordered my a Major to destroy the powder by throwing it in the creek. Ricker rode up to the wagon and looked it over and told the Major that because of the fire it was too hazardous to unload. The Major call them called them cowards, then withdrew from the scene. Lieutenant Ricker took a guard of fifteen men and ordered the wagon unloaded.

The men started to unload the wagon and a few minutes later the wagon exploded, killing and wounding half the guard. Lieutenant Ricker was sitting on his hores near by and had a thrilling experieace. His hat was blown away so it was not found. His saber scabbard hanging at his side was shattered, his head was adorned with it's first gray hairs, and was otherwise so shaken up that he was not completely recovered to this day.

The Six McMillin Brothers West Vigrinia.

There was been a lot written about the McMillin Brothers, so I well not write what has already been written, “Well maybe a little”. What I noticed on other sites was their pictures which were all washed out and you couldn't not get a good look at them. Now I like old ink drawings that's why I decided to put their pictures here. Sometimes a ink drawing can be more interesting then the real picture.

 Second Lieutenant James Dodds, son of John and Sarah ( Morris ) Dodds, was born in Thorny Bank Scotland, April 11, 1844.  He came with his parents to this country in his youth, and attended the public schools in Carolina Mills, R. I., and was by occupation a clerk at the time of his enlistment as private in company L., Third Rhode Island Havy Artillery, Jan. 11, 1862.  He was mustered in Feb. 14, 1862.  Discharged to accept commission as Second Lieutenant in the Fourteenth Rhode Island Heavy Artillery, Dec. 15, 1863; mustered Dec. 29, 1863; assiganed to company G; detached by order as acting Aid-de-camp at Post Plaquemine, La., Nov. 29, 1864, and so borne untill January, 1865.  He returned with his regiment to Rhode Island in October, 1865.  His occupation since the war has been practically the same as when he entered the service, that of clerk.

Colonel Robert C. Allen 28th. Virginia Infantry.

Robert Allen was born on June 22, 1834, in Shenandoah County, Virginia and graduated from the Virginia Military Institute in 1855. He practiced law in Salem before the war. On July 1, 1861, Allen was commissioned major of the 28th Virginia Infantry, and promoted to colonel, on April 20, 1862.

During Pickett's Charge at Gettysburg, on July 3, 1863, Colonel Allen grabbed the regimental flag when the color bearer went down. He advanced to the stone wall and was shot down. Allen handed off the flag, placed his hat at the tip of his sword, waved it in victory and died.

After his death, Col. Allen was buried with his men in a mass grave in front of the stone wall. Most likely his remains were removed in the 1870s and sent south to Richmond and buried in the "Gettysburg Dead" Section of Hollywood Cemetery as an unknown. His name does not appear on records of identified remains removed from the battlefield.

Colonel Aquila Wiley.

Colonel Aquila Wiley, Enlisted September 1861, for 3., years was 26., years old. Promoted to Major from captain company C., March 1, 1862; wounded April 7, 1862, in battle of Shiloh Tennessee. Promoted to Lieutenant Colonel November 20, 1862. Wounded November 25, 1863, in the battle of Mission Ridge Tennessee, leg amputated; discharged June 4, 1864.

Mission Ridge.

Colonel Aquila Wiley, Forty-first Ohio Volunteers, commanding the First Battalion, was shot through the leg, making amputation necessary. The loss to the service of this officer cannot be properly estimated. He was always prompt and thorough, and possessed capacity and knowledge of his duties that never left him at fault. I know no officer of equal efficiency in the volunteer service, and none whose past service entitle them to better reward.

Aquila Wiley, was born 1835, in Pennsylvania, would marry Emma Rower on May 19, 1870, they had two children a son Walter Wiley and a daughter Ida Wiley, in 1880 was living with his family in Wayne, Wayne county Ohio, was a Sawyer, he died in 1910.

Burial: Tacoma Cemetery, Tacoma, Pierce County, Washington.

The following was taken from a book by J. H. Kidd, called; Personal Recollections of a Cavalryman.

In troop "F", commanded by Captain William Hyser, was Second Lieutenant Don G. Lovell, one of the three

veteran officers. He went out as corporal in the Third Michigan infantry, was wounded at Fair Oaks, and again at Trevillian Station while serving in the cavalry. He was one of the bravest of the brave.

Captain Don G. Lovell, of the Sixth Michigan, the senior officer present with the regiment, greatly distinguished himself in the difficult duty of  guarding the rear, meeting emergencies as they arose with the characteristic courage and coolness which distinguished him on all occasions on the field of battle.

CAPTAIN LOVELL'S DISCOVERY.

Captain Don G. Lovell, who was riding by the side of the commanding officer of the regiment,* suddenly cried out : "Major, there is a mounted man in the edge of the woods yonder," at the same time pointing to a place directly in front and about 200 yards beyond the fence.

Captain Lovell was one of the most dashing and intrepid officers in the brigade. He was always cool and never carried away with excitement under any circumstances. It is perhaps doubtful whether he could have

maintained his customary imperturbability, if he had realized, at the moment, just what that lone picket portended.

A glance in the direction indicated, revealed the truth of Captain Lovell' s declaration but, recalling what General Custer had said, I replied :

"The general said we might expect some mounted men of the Seventh from that direction." "But that vidette is a rebel," retorted Lovell, "he is dressed in gray. " "It can't be possible," was the insistent reply, and the column kept on moving.

Just then, the man in the woods began to ride his horse in a circle. "Look at that," said Lovell; "that is a rebel signal; our men don't do that."

The truth of the inference was too evident to be disputed. Things were beginning to look suspicious, and in another instant all doubt, if any remained, was set at rest. The horseman, after circling about a time or two, brought his horse to a standstill facing in the direction from which we were approaching. There was a puff of smoke from the muzzle of his revolver or carbine, and a bullet whizzed by and buried itself in the breast of one of the horses in the first set of fours.

"There, — it," exclaimed Lovell. "Now you know it is a rebel, don't you? "

The information was too reliable not to be convincing, and the regiment was promptly brought front into line, which had hardly been accomplished, when shots began to come from other points in the woods, and no further demonstration was needed that they were full of confederates.

Levant W. Barnhart & William Hull, Sixth Michigan Cavalry.

The Michigan Sixth Cavalry, was known as Custer's Cavaalry Bigade.

While serving in this position he attracted the notice of General Custer who secured his appointment by the War Department as asistant adjutant general with the rank of Captain. He served on the staff of General Custer till the war closed.

After the mortal wound of Carter, Captain J. B. Fishback assumed command of the First Kentucky detacnment, and fought Morgan's forces for some time, when finding his little force about to be surrounded, he, with marked skill and bravery, withdrew his command and retreated his regiment at Jamestown, without sacrifieing a man on his retreat.

Elias Cotton Jr. OF The Frigate Deane.

Mr. Eddie E. Scott, sent me some information on his fifth Grandfather.  It was to be a update for my page called ( The two ships called Deane.), but I decided he should have a page of his own.  Mr Scott would be interested in any information you my have on this family lines.  He has also given some information on a  Great Great Grandfather from Kansas as well.  If you have any question or information for any of these names he can be reached at the following.; scott53@llnl.gov
--------------------------

Elias Cotton, Jr. served in the Colonial Navy on the Frigate Deane. He applied for and received a pension for that service. Elias Cotton served in the Revolutionary War in the navy on board the Frigate Deane under Captain Samuel Nicholson. On 1 April 1818 Elias Cotton, a U.S. citizen, and resident of Boston, testified that in the War of the Revolution in April 1779 he entered the naval services of the United States from sometime in the fall of 1780 he served as a seman and topman on the frigate Deane commanded by Captain Nicolson, and left the services in fall of 1780. By reason of his reduced circumstances and poverty he was in need of assistance, being now age 62 years. (This would make his birth year about 1856.) Elias signed his name before William Westmore.

Joseph Moncreeff testified that he was a boy on board the frigate Deane and that he well knew that Elias Cotton had served for "more than nine months uninterruptedly." Dr. Peter Saint Medard of Boston also testified that he had been a surgeon's mate on the Deane and that Elias parties and credible witnesses.18 Elias Cotton again applied for assistance on 8 July 1820 stating that he was 71 (two years after he was 62), a rope maker living in Boston. He stated that he "enlisted in the month of June 1781 as nearly as he can recollect in the United States frigate Dean Commanded by Captain Nicholson and served on board said frigate until the Spring of 1783 in ...when he was honourably discharged but not in writing. The above dates are as near as he can recollect. He made his original application on the first of April 1818 and the number of his pension certificate is 11,003. This statement was sworn before John Davis, Judge of the Massachusetts District Court. Elias Cotton was granted a pension based on the Pension Act of 18 March 1818. He received $8 a month commencing on 1 April 1818; the pension was issued 24 May 1819 and was to be retroactive to 1 April 1818. He was paid $137.03 in arrears.

Robert F. Hoke, a farewell to his command.

Robert H. Waterman-Ohio-Indiana-Kansas.

Here is a man of mystery I first ran across him while was doing some research on the pension rolls of Kansas.  I liked the name and looked him up in the National Park Service, and found there was only one he was listed in the 31st., Indiana Infantry Co. A., from here the mystery began.  His record showed that he enlisted in the 31st, in 1861, as a Sergeant and was already veteran and was later commission a Captain in June of 1865.  I thought I would see if I could fine him in any battle reports in the official records ( O. R. ), I found two short paragraphs on him, and the mystery continues.  The report was from a Colonel of the 31st., and told of Captain Waterman's deeds, this report was recorded in 1862, but how can that be as he wasn't commission a Captain till June of 1865.  It was the right Waterman as he was the only one in company A. 

I went to the site of ( Find a Grave ), and found him there he was buried in the Topeka Kansas Cemetery, but there was no mitilary information.  I called the cemetery but got no answer I had fore gotten about the Labor Day weekend.  So I called the ( Topeka Room ) at the Topeka Library to see if by chance they may have his obituary and they did.  It will be reprinted here before this page is done.  But the library give me another mystery they read some of the info, and it said he was enlisted as a private in a Ohio regiment.   Upon hearing this I thought I had the wrong man.  But then they told me he was from Atchison Kansas and had a business there at on time.  Well I new I had the right man, for that's where I first got the name.  All I can do is give you all the facts and maybe a family member can put a little light on this mystery.
