General Notes: Husband - John Stuchell
He was reared on a farm. He received his education in the common schools, and was engaged in farming until the commencement of the Civil War. On November 15, 1861, he enlisted as a private in Co. G, 103d regiment, Pa. Vols.; was commissioned captain December 28, 1861, and commanded his company until April 16, 1863, when his term of enlistment expired. He served in the Army of the Potomac and participated in the battles of Williamsburg and Seven Pines or Fair Oaks. Returning home in 1863, he followed farming in South Mahoning township, Indiana County, Pennsylvania, for four years, and then embarked in the wagon-making business at Plumville, in which he continued for seven years. In 1874 he attempted to work at carpentering, but was compelled to quit on account of physical disability, which was the result of disease contracted in the army from exposure. In 1890 he moved to Kelleysburg, where he took charge of the "Traveler's Home." He also owned some property at Plumville, and was a thorough-going business man. He was a member of Plumville Post, No. 495, Grand Army of the Republic. In politics Capt. Stuchell was a republican.
He was captain of Company G, 103d Pennsylvania volunteers from November 15th, 1861, to April 16th 1863, being discharged for disability. He personally recruited this company, and was elected its captain by the members.
