General Notes: Husband - Amos Swart


He was a farmer and resided in Amwell township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, until the breaking out of the war of the Rebellion, when he enlisted in Company D, One Hundred and For­tieth P. V. I., serving from 1861 until May, 1864, when he was shot dead in the battle of the Wilder­ness, the bullet passing through his brain. Shortly before this event, and while he was visit­ing his home, on furlough, his house was burned, a melancholy verification of the adage that “troubles seldom come singly.” The family then moved to Washington.

He was killed during the Civil War at Spottsylvania.
