General Notes: Husband - Henry S. Guy

---

He resided in Wayne Township, Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, almost all of his life. He obtained his education in one of the log school houses which were the best the township then afforded. In his youth game was plentiful and he learned to be expert with his rifle, even before entering the army. He was always more or less interested in farming, but for fourteen years prior to enlisting, he was engineer and foreman for the Portland Cement Works near Wampum. In 1861 he enlisted at Wurtemburg in Company C, One Hundredth Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, a regiment known as the Roundheads, and was mustered into the service at Pittsburgh. From that city the regiment was sent on to Washington and from there to South Carolina, and was stationed at Port Royal, where it remained from the fall of 1861 until the following May. After taking part in the engagement at James Island the regiment remained near Charleston for one month, and then returned to Port Royal until after what was known as the sickly season had passed. From the far South the regiment was then ordered to Newport News, Virginia, and two weeks later was transferred by boat to Fredericksburg, then to Culpepper Court House, and participated in the second battle of Bull Run, August 22, 1862. It was at this battle that Mr. Guy was wounded by a spent ball which disabled him, the injury to his thumb and hand causing him to remain in a hospital for seven months, and after his discharge on a surgeon's certificate, on account of disability, he returned to Lawrence County. The seriousness of Mr. Guy's injury was recognized by the Government and at first he was given a pension of $8, which was later increased to $40 per month. He resumed farming as soon as he was able to do so, although for a year afterward he was obliged to work with one hand on the plow, his other hand being carried in a sling. He was a member of Wampum Post, No. 381, Grand Army of the Republic, at Wampum.

After marriage they settled on the Guy farm and resided there until about 1895, when removal was made to Chewton, this being the only time Mr. Guy ever moved.
He was a member of the Disciples Church at Chewton and Mrs. Guy of the Baptist Church.
