Bio

Sergeant, Company B, 18th Pennsylvania Cavalry. Enlisted October 29, 1862. Injured by fall of horse sometime in February 1863. Discharged on April 25, 1863 due to injuries by surgeon's certificate from hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Lived in Duke Centre, Pennsylvania, after the war. Filed for a pension on May 15, 1863, application number 22,605, certificate number 34,696. The following contributed by J Brown, #48697180 By their 1870 US census, he and NY-born Charlotte lived with daughter Nora, age 9, in Titusville, in Crawford County. His occupation was "grocer", something that could be done with one seated by a cash register and another doing physical work. Their live-in employee was Charles Wescott, occupation "clerk in a store". They were doing very well, as their property was valued higher than that of another grocer down the street. By their 1880 US-census, they had moved with Nora to Otto Township in McKean County. His job title had changed to "laborer", so he was once again able to do physical work. By 1900, he had a business again, in addition to farming, so gave his occupation as butcher-farmer. Once in their 80s, both were still living, but retired, but now in Bradford proper, no longer rural. Their daughter, now Nora E. Sloan, widow, was caring for them, calling herself head of the house, with a side job as a "tool dresser", her son John H. Sloan, 27, also there adding to household income by working as a "pumper".
