General Notes: Husband - Joseph Cochran Hursh

---

His great-grandfather came from Germany to America and settled in Jacksonville, Pennsylvania.

Civil War: he enlisted in the Union army on Christmas Eve, 1861, giving his age as seven years less than it was in order to be within the age limit. He took part in the second battle of Bull Run, and was also at Yorktown, and came home on New Year's Day a year after, and died from the results of having had his legs frozen to the knees while on duty.
