General Notes: Husband - Capt. John Kinter

---

He was reared to manhood on the family homestead and followed farming, which was his occupation through-out life. On Aug. 7, 1862, the day after he reached the age of twenty-one, he enlisted in Company I, 135th Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, which was assigned to the 1st Brigade, 3d Division, 1st Army Corps. In 1862 the regiment did guard duty and patrol service at Washington, D. C., and Mr. Kinter saw service at the battles of Chancellorsville and Fredericksburg. He was discharged in May, 1863, and again entered the service in March, 1865, this time joining Company F, 74th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, as first lieutenant, and was subsequently promoted to captain, serving with that rank until discharged, Aug. 29, 1865. He was one of the scouting party that went out after Mosby. During his first enlistment he had served as drum major, and he still had the drum he carried many years later. He was a member of John Pollock Post, G. A. R., and belonged to the Park Veteran Military Band of Marion Center, Indiana County.
At the close of his army service Captain Kinter returned to Indiana County and settled on the home farm in Rayne township, which he cultivated for many years. He was a successful farmer and progressive in his ideas. He served two years as president of the Patrons Mutual Fire Insurance Company of Indiana County, and he took an active part in public affairs, serving the township as auditor, clerk and supervisor. He was at one time the nominee for sheriff, but failed of election. His political connection was with the Republican party.
He and his wife were members of the Church of Christ, in which he was at one time quite an active worker, serving as deacon.
