Received the Medal of Honor while serving as Private, Company K, 12th New York Volunteer Infantry at Blackburns Ford, Virginia, on July 18, 1861.
He was born in 1839 and entered the service at Batavia, New York. The Medal was issued to him on October 23, 1897, in spite of the fact that the action which earned it took place 36 years earlier. However, this was the case with many Civil War recipients of our nation’s highest military award.
He died on October 13, 1908 and was buried in Section 1 of Arlington National Cemetery. His wife, Louise Catherine Rand, who was born in 1840 and who died in 1911, is buried with him.
