A Civil War Cavalryman - Our Ancestor By John T. Reardon The author here shares his research with the next generation of the descendants of a Civil War officer in the 13th Pa Cavalry. Others too, may be interested in tracing the lieutenant’s service record from before Bull Run to after Appomattox. His experiences took him from Harper’s Ferry and the Shenandoah Valley, through the southern prison pens, parole and a return to duty in the very area where he had been a prisoner.

The tiny gold colored markings on that beautifully framed and handcrafted military document actually were a chronological listing, in tiny lettering, of the events in a soldier’s career and the battles his unit participated in. He was an Irish immigrant, a ninety day man, a Sergeant Major, a dragoon, a lieutenant, a survivor. The Irish dragoons escaped from Early, guarded Grant and searched for Sherman. They truly earned the title Veteran. |
