General Notes: Husband - Adam Frye

---

Irwin, Westmoreland Co, PA

Civil War: He enlisted in the Union army, August 10, 1862, in the One Hundred and Thirty-sixth Pennsylvania Volunteers under Brigadier-General Pete Lyle, and also under General Hancock. He was a member of the company who gathered for worship at the historic Bethel Church in Stewartsville just before they left for the front. The company to which he belonged was recruited largely from the farms in the neighborhood, and the first engagement in which it took part was the terrible slaughter at Fredericksburg, when about half of its number were reported dead, wounded or missing. Captain Marchand was seriously wounded, and Adam Frye was himself hurt by a bursting shell. His brother-in-law, Joseph Hursh, was wounded in the same battle. Adam Frye was also in the battle of Antietam.

He and his wife were the parents of nine children.
