General Notes: Husband - Samuel Crossgrove


He attended Turkey Run school, and as a farmer boy aided in the labors of the fields until October 14, 1861, when he enlisted in Company K, 51st P. V. I., under Capt. George P. Carmans. From Harrisburg they went to Annapolis, Maryland, and after a few weeks proceeded by transports to Roanoke Island, which they captured, this being their first engagement. Mr. Crossgrove was with his company until taken ill. After eleven weeks spent in the hospital at Baltimore he rejoined his regiment at Petersburg, and was in active service until July 27, 1865, with the exception of a thirty-days' furlough, granted him at the time of his re-enlistment. The war having ended Mr. Crossgrove returned to home and farm life.
