Elihu Dymond, Private, Company B 12th PA Reserve Infantry (41st PA), recruited from Wyoming County Enlisted 5/15/1861 Discharged for disability 4/21/1862

Volney was my great grand uncle. His brother Henry was my great grandfather and a member of the 7th Pennsylvania Cavlery company L. After his enlistment expired he reenlisted and became part of the 190th P.V.I. He was taken P.O.W. at the Battle of Weldon Railroad in August 1864 and was in Belle Island and Salisbery(sp?) N.C. P.O.W.camp. He survived the war and returned to Covington PA. where he died at a ripe old age. He is buried in the Grey Cemetery in Covington and has a G.A.R. medallion on his grave site. His brother Henry is buried in the same cemetery.

I am working on confirming this recent information

I would like to know where he was wounded.

John C. Rinker, my g.g.grandfather died in 1864 in Obisonia, Huntingdon Co. PA, from disease contracted in 1862 Pennsula Camp.
