Henry D Lohr was my Great-great grandfather. He and his brother Samuel both joined the regular army, being assigned to the 19th Co. G in Johnstown, PA.
Samuel was wounded at Fredricksburg and, losing about 6' off his right leg. He was then honorably discharged. Henry became a Corporal. He was captured at the Battle of Chickamauga and sent to prison at Andersonville. He escaped via a tunnel with other Pennsylvanians. He caught up with General Sherman during his march to the sea.
Henry was honorably discharged at Lookout Mt., TN. and resumed farming in Somerset Co. PA until his death in 1903. He never fully recovered from the illnesses he contracted at Andersonville. He died at age 66.
