General Notes: Husband - Joseph Craig


He served in the Union Army from the beginning to the close of the Civil War. After his three months term of service expired, he re-enlisted in Co. C, 105th Regt. Penna. Volunteers, and was appointed First Sergeant, afterwards promoted to First Lieutenant, and to Quartermaster. September 28, 1864, he was severely wounded in the Battle of the Wilderness. The historian of the 105th Regiment Penna. Volunteers writes: "He was a faithful and efficient officer, and filled all the responsible positions to which he was called during his long term of service acceptably to the regiment and with honor to himself."
