General Notes: Husband - Isaac Shakely


He lived on the farm with his parents until he went to learn the blacksmith's trade in Middlesex, Armstrong county, PA, in 1859. During his youth he at­tended the country school and secured the rudiments of an education. He continued to work at his trade until he went into the army, in August, 1862, as a member of Company B, One Hundred and Third Pennsylvania Volun­teers. His army life was quite eventful. Enlisting at Kittanning he was sent to join his regiment at Suffolk, Virginia, where it was serving under Generals Gilmore and Foster, in the department of North Carolina. He was with his regiment in the engagements at Black Water, Virginia; Kings­ton, Whitehall, and Goldsboro, North Carolina, and was finally captured with his entire brigade at Plymouth, North Carolina, April 20, 1864, an ac­count of which appears in another chapter. He was taken to Andersonville prison, where he remained until September 10th, thence to Charleston, South Carolina, thence to Florence, where he was paroled December 10th of the same year. When he entered Andersonville he weighed one hundred and eighty-eight pounds, but when he left Florence he tipped the scales at sixty-two pounds. His health was much impaired by his prison life. After pa­role and recuperation in parole camp at Annapolis, Maryland, he rejoined his regiment at Newborn, North Carolina, in April, 1865, and was mustered out June 21st of that year. Returning from the army, he located in Emlenton and resumed his trade. He served as constable, councilman, and school director in the borough, and was an ardent member of the Republican party and an adherent of the Reformed church. [HVC 1890, 947]

He and his wife had a total of twelve children, only eight were living in 1890.
