General Notes: Husband - Uriah Sloan


He received his education in the schools of Cherry Valley, Butler County, Pennsylvania, and lived on a farm until 1858, when he learned the trade of wagon making. In 1859 he began to drill for oil, and continued in the business until the breaking out of the Rebellion. He entered the Union service September 24, 1861, as a member of Company B, One Hundred and Third Pennsylvania Volunteers. He served in the Army of the Potomac and in the sub-district of the Albemarle, North Carolina. He was with McClellan in the Peninsula campaign, 1862, and subsequently participated in the battles of Kingston, Goldsboro, and White Hall, North Carolina. April 20, 1864, his entire regiment was captured at Plymouth, North Carolina, and he suffered a loathsome imprisonment at Andersonville, Georgia, and Charlestown and Florence, South Carolina, until February, 1865. His time having expired he returned to his home in Butler County. In 1867 he began milling in Emlenton, and in 1875 he bought the old Presbyterian church and converted it into a factory which he operated. He was a member of the Presbyterian church, a Republican in politics, and belonged to the G. A. R. [HVC 1890, 946]
