Asa French Comadand of Capt Hows Compy.


277


CAPTAIN ABNER HOW'S COMPANY


Of the fifty-nine men whose names are on the pay roll only three, the commissioned officers Abner How, Joseph Packerd and Asa French, are credited with this campaign in M. S. R.


Ten names, those of Enoch Boutwel, William Boman, Jacob Brooks, Roger Bruce, Thomas Burnet, Joseph Hatfield, Theophulas Pother, Samuel Slayton, Robert Stevenson and Ezra Torry, are entirely new, not appear- ing under any form or spelling in M. S. R. but all of these names except two, Jacob Brooks and Thomas Burnet, appear in the Brookfield Vital Records of the Revolutionary period. The name of Jacob Brooks is on the Oakham Town Records. Robert Stevenson appears to have been living in Oakham in 1775 (Brookfield V. R., 415, Oakham V. R., 100).


Of the remaining forty-six names, eighteen appear in M. S. R. as those of Brookfield men, credited with service either before or after 1776: Jesse Abbot, Joel Abbot, Eleazer Addams, Jesse Addams, Solomon Barns, Elisha Bartlet, William Deen, Henery Gilbert, Jude Hamilton, Ephraim Harington, Moses Hastings, Thomas Hathaway, Jonathan Lam- son, Joseph Marble, Samuel Watson, Thomas Wedge, Israil Whitney and John Woolcut. Ten others can be easily identified by entries in M. S. R., as those of men who were connected either before or after- wards with Brookfield companies: John Cambel, Lemuel Gilbert, Sam- uel Hinkly, Nicholas McCluer, Jonathan Richardson, Silas Stone, Joshua Tylor, Samuel Walker, Samuel Wood and William Wood.


Three names appear in M. S. R. as those of Oakham men credited with service before or after 1776: Siles Bullard, James Forbush and Samuel Medcalf. Five other men whose names appear in M. S. R. for earlier or later campaigns unassigned to any town are known from the Oakham Town Records to have been from Oakham: Abraham Bell, James Bell, William Bothwel, Nathan Edson and John Forbush.


John Ayres appears in M. S. R. for earlier or later campaigns from New Braintree, Samuel Ball from Worcester, Asa Barns from Lanesborough, Comfort Barns from New Ashford, Lemuel Bryant from Middleboro, Ebenezer Goodail from Royalston, Benjamin Knights and Samuel Palmer from Essex Co., and Ebenezer Wright from Templeton.


Nathan Rude, who was reported on the pay roll as deceased November 13, is probably the Nathan Rood of Brookfield (Brookfield V. R., 392, 401) who married Rachel Streeter in 1770.


The eleven Oakham men on the roll, Abraham Bell, James Bell, Jr., William Bothwell, Jacob Brooks, Silas Bullard, Nathan Edson, James Forbes, John Forbes, Asa French, Benjamin Knight, and Samuel Metcalf, are easily identified, being the only men credited with 178 miles distance from home. All of these except Nathan Edson and James Forbes are credited with this campaign on the Oakham Town Records. James Forbes probably went in place of Ichabod Packard, the only man whose name appears on the Town Records and not on the pay roll.

SOLDIERS OF OAKHAM


John French, 2d.


Born in Berkley, Mass., August 11, 1735, son of John and Marcy French, brother of Lieut. Asa French, and descendant in the fifth gen- eration of John French of Halsted, Essex Co., England, who settled in Cambridge, Mass., about 1637.

He lived on the Cheney Adams place till 1809 when he sold his farm to his son Isaac and afterwards removed to Stockbridge, Vt. Both he and his wife probably returned to Oakham before the end of the year 1816.

Isaac French, only son of John French, 2d, married Catherine Davis of Oakham, January 14, 1808.

In accordance with a resolution of the Massachusetts Legislature the State has recently printed "Records of the Massa- chusetts Militia in the War of 1812-'14." These records, which came into the possession of the State in 1881, were furnished by Mr. Z. K. Harmon, and were supposed to come from reliable sources, but Mr. Harmon's list of Capt. Crawford's Company of Grenadiers, given on page 93, seems to have been copied somewhat carelessly. Seven names of well-known members of the company appear on this list as follows : Michell Lincoln, Sylvester Marn, Ebenezer N. Bars, Hiram Bars, Jonas Brinkhall, Boswell Converse, and Charles I. Holmes. James Allen is ranked as Lieutenant and Michael Lincoln as Ensign. These offi- cers did not receive their commissions till December 20. John Adams' name is not found here, and does not appear on Capt. Crawford's Pay Roll for the month of October, given above. He may have been discharged at Boston, before October I, but it is more probable that he did not go with the company to Boston ; see page 162.

SOLDIERS OF OAKHAM


33d Iowa Infantry.


John Rice Crawford.


Mustered in, September 6, 1862. Mustered out, July 17, 1865.


Son of John and Sally (Moore) Crawford, was born in Rutland, Mass., September 29, 1833. His father, John Crawford, was son of Samuel and Huldah (Berden) Crawford, who were married in 1793. This Samuel was the son of Capt. John Crawford who served in the Revolutionary War. Sally Moore was the daughter of William and Sally (Rice) Moore, of Rutland, who were married May 8, 1803.


John R. Crawford came to Oakham with his parents when about one year old, and lived in Oakham till the age of twenty, when he removed to Springfield, Mass., and later went West. About 1859 he settled in Marshalltown, Iowa, where he had a general store. In the summer of 1862 he joined Co. D of the 33d Iowa Infantry, and was appointed Second Sergeant. Accord- ing to the Adjutant General's Report he enlisted from Oska- loosa, Mahaska Co., and his enlistment papers were dated September 6, 1862. He was promoted to Sergeant Major, April 16, 1863. The regiment was sent to Arkansas. In the battle at Jenkin's Ferry, on April 30, 1864, Crawford was severely wounded in the thigh, and left on the field by his own men. He was taken prisoner by the Confederates, and transferred to New Orleans, where he was exchanged not long before the close of the war. The regiment was mustered out at New Orleans, July 17, 1865, and officers not accounted for were mustered out as with the regiment.


After his discharge he returned North and located as a dentist in Davenport, Iowa. Later he removed to Nyack, N. Y., where he continued the practice of dentistry.


He was married at Nyack to Sarah Andrews of that place, and had one son, John Andrews Crawford, who was a musician.


John Rice Crawford never fully recovered from his wound. He died at Haverstraw, N. Y., February 21, 1892, in the fifty- ninth year of his age.


283


THE CIVIL WAR-33D IOWA INFANTRY


Mr. Crawford's military record was not known to the writer till the part of this book dealing with the Civil War had been printed. Another name is now to be added to the list of descend- ants of Capt. John Crawford born or brought up in Oakham who served in the Civil War. See page 71.


INDEX


The General Index contains all names of Oakham soldiers, and of such ancestors and descendants of the same as are mentioned in this book; also the Regiments and Companies in which Revolutionary soldiers from the town served, arranged alphabetically by the names of their Colonels and Captains, under the general headings: Regiments in the Revolutionary War, and Companies in the Revolutionary War. The names of soldiers whose biographies are given, and the pages on which they are to be found, are indicated by full-faced type.


Following the General Index is a separate Index of Towns.
