HAZZARD'S HISTORY OF HENRY COUNTY.
BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OF PHILANDER WISEHART.
PRIVATE, COMPANY B, 8TH INFANTRY REGIMENT, INDIANA VOLUNTEERS (THREE MONTHS). FIRST SOLDIER FROM HENRY COUNTY KILLED IN THE CIVIL WAR.
Philander Wisehart was born December 29, 1837. He was the son of James and Sarah Wisehart, the former born March 25, 1807, and the latter born March 7. 1812. On February 10, 1831, they were united in marriage and settled in Fall Creek Township, on government land, near the present site of Mechanics- burg, where they continued to reside all of their active lives. They cleared away the forests and brought the land under cultivation, leading the simple, rugged lives of all early settlers. They were highly respected by their neighbors and were possessed of strong religious convictions. They were consistent members of the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Wisehart home was the center of the religious life of the neighborhood and the stopping place for all itinerant ministers, who for lack of church accommodations, often held services at their residence. James Wisehart seems to have been a man of strong character and public spirit, who took a great interest in educational and religious matters and the cause of both was much benefitted by his efforts in the early days of Henry County.
James and Sarah Wisehart were the progenitors of a large family, thirteen children being born to them, namely : Jackson, Mary Ann, Louisa, Willis, Philander (the subject of this sketch), Nelson, George, Melvina, Richmond, Elizabeth, Charity Ann, Volintine and Lorinda. There are still living of this family : Louisa, now Mrs. Hiram B. Brattain; Willis; Nelson; Richmond; Elizabeth, now Mrs. Joseph W. Franklin ; Charity Ann, now Mrs. John Davis, and Lorinda, now Mrs. Frank McWilliams. All of the children, both living and dead, except Jackson, who had his residence in Iowa and Georgia for a short time, have resided in Henry County all of their lives, and all of the survivors now live in Fall Creek Township, except Richmond, who is a resident of New Castle. (Since this was written he has moved to Pasadena, California.)
James Wisehart, the father, died. October 2, 1868, but his widow survived him many years, her death taking place June 29, 1890. He was for many years a Justice of the Peace, who was then an officer of dignity and importance. In all new countries that are being opened for settlement, the "squire" is the most important man in the new community. The early settlers of Fall Creek Township, year after year, attested their appreciation of Mr. Wisehart by electing him to this position, which made him the censor of the community. When no minister was within reach he was the official who solemnized marriages; he also attested legal papers, drew wills and settled disputes among his neighbors and in important matters was the adviser of all. In every town, village and neighborhood, there is now a notary public, an officer with a seal, but at that time the nearest official with a seal, in fact the only one in the county, was the clerk of the court at New Castle. With the growth of the community has come a more numerous ministry and new courts and new officials, which have usurped the duties of the justices of the peace, until the office has dwindled to comparative unimportance.
PHILANDER WISEHART.
Philander Wisehart lived at home with his parents, assisting on the farm in

HAZZARD'S HISTORY OF HENRY COUNTY.
Summer and going to school in Winter, until the beginning of the Civil War, when he immediately offered his services to his country, enlisting in what became Company B, 8th Indiana Infantry (three months), and was mustered into the service of the United States, as a private, April 25, 1861. In the battle of Rich Mountain, West Virginia, July 11, 1861, he was killed, being the first soldier from Henry County to lose his life in the Civil War. His remains were buried on the battlefield and the grave marked by his comrades, in such a permanent way, that it could be identified when the time came for the Government to undertake the gathering of the remains of its soldier dead from the scattered battlefields of the war and the placing of them in National Cemeteries. To this is owing the fact that the remains of Philander Wisehart have been re-interred with reverent care in Grave No. 655, in the National Cemetery at Grafton, West Virginia. He was an exemplary young man, highly respected and gave promise of a long and useful life. Alas! cut down in the flush of early manhood, in the titanic struggle of the Civil War. It has always been attested by his surviving comrades in arms that he was an ideal soldier, patient in camp, enduring on the march and brave in battle.
RICHMOND WISEHART.
Richmond Wisehart, brother of Philander, long a resident of New Castle, is a veteran of the Civil War. In the Fall of 1861, after the death of his brother, he enlisted from Mechanicsburg in Company F, 57th Indiana Infantry, and was mustered into the service of the United States, as a private, November 18, 1861. He participated in the marches, skirmishes and battles of that regiment, from Shiloh to Chattanooga and Missionary Ridge, and afterwards marched and fought with his regiment in General Sherman's Atlanta Campaign. He was wounded during that campaign, at Kenesaw Mountain, Georgia, June 27, 1864. At the expiration of his first enlistment, he again enlisted in the same company and regiment, with which he continued until the regiment was mustered out. His soldierly qualities brought him recognition and advancement. He was successively appointed Sergeant and First Sergeant of his company and on June 1, 1865, he was commissioned Second Lieutenant. The end of the war, however, was assured, and he was never mustered as Lieutenant but continued to serve as First Sergeant, until December 14, 1865, when he was mustered out of the service, and returned to Henry County. He has been honored by the people of his native county with two successive terms as County Auditor, serving from November 1, 1891, to November 1, 1899. He has recently moved to Pasadena, California, where he now resides.
HIRAM B. BRATTAIN.
Hiram B. Brattain, husband of Philander Wisehart's elder sister, Louisa, was also a soldier of the Civil War. He was a private in the same company and regiment as Philander Wisehart, and when the latter received his death wound at Rich Mountain, he was present and received from him his dying words, "Tell mother I am willing to die and feel that all is well." The regiment was mustered out of the service on August 6, 1861, and Mr. Brattain returned home where he remained until August 8, 1862, when he was commissioned Second Lieutenant of Company H, 69th Indiana Infantry. He was mustered into the service of the

HAZZARD'S HISTORY OF HENRY COUNTY.
United States, August 12, 1862, and on the 19th of the same month departed for the front with his regiment. On August 30, 1862, at the battle of Richmond, Kentucky, the regiment was terribly cut up and a large part of it captured. After exchange, the regiment was re-organized, but Lieutenant Brattain was compelled by increasing disability to resign March 27, 1863. He returned to Middletown, where he has since lived, enjoying the confidence and respect of his fellow citizens.
JOHN DAVIS.
John Davis, who married Charity Ann Wisehart, was also a soldier. He enlisted from Middletown in Company G, 84th Indiana Infantry, and was mustered into the service of the United States, as a private, August 20, 1862, and participated in all the marches, skirmishes and battles of that regiment. He was wounded at Chickamauga, Georgia, September 20, 1863. At the end of the war he was mustered out with his regiment, June 14, 1865. He returned to Middletown, the home of his youth, where he has since resided, being principally engaged in farming. In every requirement of life, Mr. Davis has been found on the side of morality and honor.
JOSEPH W. FRANKLIN.
Joseph W. Franklin, who married Elizabeth Wisehart, enlisted from Mid- dletown in Company H, 140th Indiana Infantry, and was mustered into the service of the United States, as a private, September 9, 1864, and participated in the marches, skirmishes and battles of that regiment, until mustered out July II, 1865, when he returned to Middletown, where he has since resided, following the life of a farmer.
EIGHTH INFANTRY REGIMENT, INDIANA VOLUNTEERS.
MUSTERED FOR THREE YEARS.
In the following roster, the name of each officer and man is followed by his postoffice address at the time of enlistment. In some instances the soldier was not a resident of Henry County at the time of enlistment but moved to that county after the Civil War. In such cases the name of the county from which he enlisted is substituted for the postoffice address and that is followed by the place of set- tlement in Henry County. The date of muster for the officers is the date they were actually mustered into the service of the United States and not the date of commission.
Company E was considered a distinctively Henry County organization and, for that reason, the names of all its members are published to complete the roster, whether they lived in Henry County or not. The name of the county from which he enlisted is substituted for the postoffice address after the name of each non-resident soldier.
