General Notes: Husband - Harper G. Andrews

---

He was educated in the public schools of Binghamton, New York, finishing with a course at a commercial college. He began his active career as a farmer near Windsor, continuing until his enlistment, July 25, 1862, in Company B, One Hundred and Thirty-seventh Regiment New York Volunteer Infantry. He enlisted as a drummer, being only sixteen years old, and served until honorably discharged with the rank of first lieutenant, April 14, 1865. He saw hard service with the armies of Grant, Rosecrans and Thomas, marched with Sherman "from Atlanta to the Sea," and won his several promotions for bravery on the field of battle. After the war and his marriage in 1869, he settled in Limestone, New York, where he was engaged in a mercantile business. He later engaged in lumbering, and in 1896 moved to Bradford, Pennsylvania, where he continued until his death. He was a member of the Masonic order, affiliated with lodge, chapter, and St. John's Commandery, Knights Templar; and also of Tent No. 4, Knights of the Maccabees, Limestone, New York. He always retained a great affection for his army comrades, and until his death was a member of the Grand Army Post at Bradford, and the Union Veteran Legion. He attended the Universalist church.
