N., (Lieut.) 3d Ohio Vols and 69th Ohio Vols, Cattaraugus, 239 http://files.usgwarchives.org/ny/cattaraugus/bios/adams/salamanca.txt George SHEDD, son of John D., was born in Jamestown, NY, Feb. 19, 1836. April 22, 1861, he enlisted in Co. F, 3d Ohio Vols., while on a visit in Hamilton, Ohio, and was discharged at the expiration of his three months' term of enlistment. Sept. 4, 1861, he enlisted as sergeant in Co. F, 69th Ohio Vols., and in the battle of Stone River at Murfreesboro, Tenn., Jan. 2, 1863, he received a severe wound from a six-pound solid shot, which carried away the upper part of his right shoulder. He was discharged for disability Sept. 13, 1863. Nov. 5, 1863, he received the commission of lieutenant-colonel of Ohio State Militia and was assigned to duty on the borders of Ohio and Kentucky, where his regiment did duty, and where he served out his term of five years, being mustered out of service near the close of the year 1867. Colonel SHEDD returned to Hamilton and served on the police force until the spring of 1870, when he removed to his native town and resumed the trade of harness making, which he had commenced before he entered the army. Two years later he removed to Randolph, where he prosecuted his trade eight years, serving two years of the time on the police force. Jan. 1, 1882, he settled in Salamanca, where he is engaged in harness manufacturing. Two brothers of Colonel SHEDD were soldiers in Co. D, 35th Ohio Vols., and both died of wounds. Sept. 13, 1862, he married Mary E. CARR, of Hamilton, Ohio. Their only son, Albert, born March 27, 1864, enlisted in the regular army in Sept. 1886, has served a term of five years in the 5th United States Regulars, and ten days after his discharge he re-enlisted for five years more. He was stationed with his regiment in New Orleans. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ohbutler/cyc/230.htm An account of the conduct of Company F in the battle of Murfreesboro, 2 Jan 1863: "The fight commenced early on Wednesday morning. Company F was ordered into the woods as a reserve to support the skirmishers, who were hotly engaged, sometimes our boys driving the enemy to their rifle-pits. Company F behaved most gallantly, while the tops of trees were falling and bombs bursting, grape and canister plowing through the woods, and the roar of the musketry was dreadful. Such a sight we never witnessed before, but with all this the boys behaved splendidly and every man was at his post. It was then that Sergeant George SHEDD was wounded with a cannon ball. He stood directly in front of the company, the ball striking a stump close by me and glancing, striking Sergeant SHEDD on the shoulder. I supposed he was killed at the time, being carried off the field. I am proud to say he was not, for he is a brave boy and would never turn his back to the enemy. A number of the company distinguished themselves on that day. I had four men wounded and four missing. Sergeant SHEDD, Pat MURPHY, James HAVENS, and John SIMMONS were wounded. S. P. MILLER, Geo. SEARGRIST, Simon WATERS, and Oscar BRUIN were missing. I have entertained the idea that the missing were taken prisoners. I will give a short account of Friday's fight. In the charge across Stone River Company F were in the hottest. They fought with desperation. They were in advance, or at least the whole regiment was in advance. The enemy was on the one side of the river, and we on the other, but our boys were determined to cross the river, which they did. Now the fight became terrible. Every time the boys pulled trigger down came a rebel, till they could not stand the storm any longer, so off they went, throwing away guns, knapsacks, and accouterments, our boys pressing, capturing, and killing them by hundreds. The field was strewn with the dead and dying of the enemy, but still our boys pursued them nearly a mile, capturing one battery - the Washington Battery - said to be the best one in the service. I did not lose a man. Company F behaved most gallantly in this dreadful fight and deserved a great deal of credit for it, and they are ready and anxious for another fight. They are all well and in good condition. We are encamped one mile south of Murfreesboro at the present time."

Feb. 5, 1863; must. out July 20, 1865, Fairfax Court House, VA, as Saddler. Later listed as a Telegrapher Repairer at Cuba, NY. The 2nd Regt. Mass. Vol. Cav. was recruited during the fall of 1862 and the winter following. The first company, "A", was raised in California and was known as the ”California Hundred. This company was mustered in at San Francisco, Dec. 10, 1862. It arrived in Boston, January. 3, 1863, and was assigned to the quota of Boston. The remaining companies were raised largely in Boston and other places in the easterly part of Massachusetts. The main body of the regiment left Readville, Mass. for the seat of war May 11, proceeding to Washington and camping near that city until July 19, during which period it was engaged in raids and scouting expeditions in the region between Washington and the Blue Ridge.
SHELDON, ALBERT S,—' Age, 33 years Enlisted, August 24, 1861, at Baldwinsville; mustered in as first lieutenant. Battery B, October 21, 1861, to serve three years; as captain, August 10, 1863; wounded, June 2, 1864, at Bethesda Church, Va.; discharged for disability, December 16, 1864; commissioned first lieutenant, November 91, 1861, with rank from August 29, 1861, original; captain, July 27, 1863, with rank from May 31, 1863, vice Pettit, resigned. “Final Report on the Battlefield of Gettysburg,” page 1325. http://books.google.com/books?id=QAkTAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA1325&dq=%22Albert+S.+sheldon%22&lr = page On July first, Battery B, including the detail from the Fourteenth, arrived at Taneytown, Md., and encamped a short distance beyond the village. The battery, which was then in the Reserve Artillery, was under the command of Lieut. Albert S. Sheldon of B. At evening an order was received transferring it to Hazard's Artillery Brigade of the Second Corps. The battery after marching all night arrived at Gettysburg on the morning of the 2d, and went into position on the line of battle of the Second Corps to which it now belonged. While awaiting the opening of the battle, Captain (James McKay) Rorty of the Fourteenth New York Battery arrived and took command, he having been assigned to this duty that day. Under command of Captain Rorty the battery was actively engaged on the evening of July second in repelling the advance of Anderson's Division, of Hill's Corps. In this fighting the combined battery lost nine men in killed and wounded, and thirteen horses disabled. On the morning of the third, Rorty's four guns — 10 pounder Parrott's — were placed on Cemetery Ridge, next to and south of the famous "clump (copse) of trees." The infantry of Gibbon's Division, Second Corps, were in line to the right, left, and rear. There was but little firing during the forenoon. But at 1 P. M., the Confederates suddenly opened a cannonade from 135 guns, the greater part of which was concentrated on the batteries of the Second Corps. The Union artillery replied with vigor, and for over an hour 200 pieces of artillery were engaged in an appalling tumultuous conflict. At no place was the Confederate fire more deadly and destructive than in the immediate vicinity of Rorty's guns. His command lost more men killed than any other battery at Gettysburg. During the action Captain Rorty was killed and Lieutenant Sheldon was wounded. The Confederate artillery fire having ceased, a double line of gray clad infantry, 14,000 strong, advanced to the assault. Moving across the intervening plain in perfect order and steady movement they crossed the Emmitsburg Pike, and then rushed in a desperate charge against the position of the Second Corps. Pushing through an opening in the line a party of Confederates reached the guns of Battery B, but were driven back by the artillerymen, who fought with handspikes, rammers, and whatever weapons came handy. The attack was repulsed all along the line, and Longstreet's column fell back in disorder to Seminary Ridge.

1846 Feb 1860 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Lincoln While Lincoln is usually portrayed bearded, he first grew a beard in late 1860, at the suggestion of 11-year-old Grace Bedell and others
On 15 Oct 1860, a few weeks before Lincoln was elected President, Grace Bedell sent him a letter from Westfield, New York, urging him to grow a breard to improve his appearance. Lincoln responded in a letter on 19 Oct 1860, making no promises. However, within a month, he grew a full beard. He later met with her. This anecdote became a popular children's story following Lincoln's assassination. A statue depicting a meeting between Lincoln and Bedell is located in the center of the village of Westfield, at the intersection of US 20 and NY 384. Bedell later married a Union veteran and moved to Delphos, Kansas, where she died in 1936.
