General Notes: Husband - Henry Hazen

---

During the Civil War he was hospital steward of the Second Regiment, Ohio Volunteer Cavalry.

He was born in Shenango township, where he received a district school education. He had begun the study of pharmacy when the Civil War broke out, but gave it up, and attempted to enlist in a Pennsylvania regiment, but was refused because of his youth. Somewhat disheartened by this rebuff he returned home, but did not give up the idea of joining the Union forces, for soon after he ran away and crossed over to Ohio, where he enlisted in the 2nd Reg. Ohio Vol. Cav. for a term of three years. After eighteen months of service he was discharged because of disability. He came home and pursued a course in the Iron City Business College of Pittsburgh, and upon the completion of the course he secured an appointment as accountant in the War Department, and was stationed at Louisville, Kentucky. He remained there until 1866, being the last man discharged from the department at that place. He then went into the drug business in New Castle, Pennsylvania, for himself, and later associated himself in the same business with Mr. Hale, and then with Mr. Wilder; the last few years he ran the business alone, selling out in 1873, and going to St. Louis, Missouri, as chief freight clerk for the Atlantic & Pacific R. R.; he was soon promoted to the traveling auditorship of the same road, and held that position at the time of his death. He lost his life in 1877 while saving the life of his friend, Chester L. White, in the terrible fire of the Southern Hotel of St. Louis.
