John Swope and his wife were both earnest, active members of the Chris- tian Church, and did all that lay in their power to strengthen that large de- nomination. Mr. Swope had the confidence of the entire community, among whom his word was regarded as good as his bond. He was active in his support of the Civil War; warm in his allegiance to the Government, and contributed liberally of his time and means to the forwarding of sanitary and other supplies to the soldiers in camp and field and hospital. His son, Joseph A. Swope, enlisted in Company C, 109th Indiana Infantry (Morgan Raid), and served until the invasion of Indiana soil was ended. He afterwards enlisted in Company G, 17th Indiana Infantry, and was mustered into the service of the United States, as a private,

HAZZARD'S HISTORY OF HENRY COUNTY.
March 9, 1864, and was mustered out August 8, 1865. He is now a resident of Colorado Springs, Colorado.
Mr. and Mrs. Swope were the parents of eleven children, namely: Elenor (Eleanor), now Mrs. George W. Shane ; Margaret, now Mrs. Samuel A. Mitchell ; Joseph A .: Louisa, afterwards Mrs. Calvin L. Swain, now deceased; Delila, afterwards Mrs. Francis M. Sanders, now deceased; Jonas B .; Perthena, now Mrs. John Weesner, of New Castle; George W .; Charles; Sarah Jane and Sophia, both of whom died in infancy. On page 280 of this History, in naming the children of Mr. and Mrs. Swope, the name of Delila is inadvertly omitted and Louisa is recorded as the wife of Francis M. Sanders. The correct list of their children and their marriages is as here given.
ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY SEVENTH INFANTRY REGIMENT, INDIANA VOLUNTEERS.
MUSTERED FOR ONE YEAR.
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 settlement 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 H was considered a distinctively Henry County organization and, for that reason, the names of all its members are published, with their postoffice addresses, to complete the roster, whether they lived in Henry County or not. Where the postoffice address is unknown, the name of the county from which the soldier enlisted follows his name.

HISTORY OF THE
ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY SEVENTH INFANTRY REGIMENT, INDIANA VOLUNTEERS.
On the 20th of December, 1864, a call was made for eleven regiments of infantry to serve for one year, and recruiting rendezvous were established at the headquarters of the District Provost Marshals, from which recruits were for- warded to the general rendezvous at Indianapolis. Chief recruiting officers were also appointed in each district whose exertions materially aided the recruitment of the regiments. Subsequently five additional regiments for the same arm and term of service were called for to be recruited in the same manner.
The One Hundred and Forty Seventh Regiment was composed of seven companies recruited in the Fifth Congressional District, two companies raised in the Eleventh District, and one company composed of detachments from Benton, Henry and Fayette counties. These were organized into a regiment at Indian- apolis, on the 13th of March, 1865, of which Milton Peden, of Knightstown, was commissioned Colonel. On the 16th it left Indianapolis for Harper's Ferry. Virginia, and on arriving there was marched to Charlestown, where it was assigned to one of the provisional divisions of the Army of the Shenandoah. From that time until its muster out, on the 4th of August, 1865, it was engaged in doing guard and garrison duty at Stevenson Station, Summit Point, Berryville, Harper's Ferry, and Maryland Heights. On the 9th of August it arrived at Indianapolis, with thirty two officers and seven hundred and forty three men for final discharge, and was publicly welcomed home, at a reception meeting held in the State House Grove, on the 11th, at which speeches were made by Lieu- tenant Governor Baker, General Benjamin Harrison and others, to which Colonel Peden responded.
