General Notes: Husband - Capt. L. B. Carlisle

---

He was born in Luthersburg, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, and reared in Brady township. For many years he engaged in merchandising in Luthersburg, and for twenty years was the efficient and popular postmaster at that place. He also built a saw-mill, and was the owner of 800 acres of land on which tract the Stanley and Helvetia mines were later opened. He was a man of excellent business and executive ability, and successfully carried on his various enterprises until 1861, when he offered his services to the government, enlisting for three years in the 145th P. V. I. He joined the army as a private, but meritorious conduct on the field of battle secured him promotion to the rank of captain. He participated in all the engagements of his regiment, which did duty with the Army of the Potomac, and after being captured was incarcerated in Libby prison. He succeeded in making his escape, but blood hounds were put upon his track and he was re-captured, being then sent to Andersonville prison. At the close of the war, in 1865, he was honorably discharged and returned to Luthersburg, where he purchased the mercantile store of Samuel Arnold. In connection with his operations along that line he also engaged in lumbering. He eventually died from disease contracted in the army.
