1868. His health failing, he resigned in 1870, went to Cincinnati and went into the city engineering department with General Hicken- looper, but gave that up on account of failing health, and went to the township of Crockery where he now resides. He has been U. S. Claim Agent and attended to other law business since his location in the county. In 1860 he married Miss Harriet Blakesly, of Crock- ery, by whom he has had one child.
WILLIAM MINES, farmer, was born in Prussia in 1839. He came to America in 1852, sett'ing first in Talmadge Township. In 1859 he came to Crockery. In 1862 he married Miss Phebe J. Thompson, of Crockery, they have four children. For six years he worked for Spoon & Thompson, at Spoonville mills as bookkeeper. In 1881 he was elected township Treasurer.
HENRY PENNOYER was born at Norwalk, Fairfield County, Conn., Feb. 8, 1809. When ten years old he removed with his parents to Cayuga County, N. Y., and remained at home until 1834, when he started for Chicago, Ill. Here he remained for about two years, when he married Harriet Kells, of Mentz, and removed to the then territory of Michigan, settling at Muskegon, Ottawa County. On the organization of the county he was elected its first sheriff in 1838, which office he held for a year. By a commission, dated Jan. 3, 1838, and signed by Amos Kendall, P. M. G., he was ap- pointed post master of Muskegon, and continued in office until 1843, when he removed to Grand Haven. At that place he kept hotel until 1856, when he commenced farming on his present homestead. His first wife died in 1852, leaving four children, and in 1853 he married his present consort by whom also he has four children. Mr. Pennoyer is a staunch Democrat and has held various offices of trust, such as Justice of the Peace, Supervisor, County Treasurer, Deputy Collector for the port of Grand Haven, Representative in the Legislature for 1849, State Senator for the 31st Senatorial District for 1859, and various other township offices. In 1860 the Republican party gained the ascendancy, when the subject of this sketch retired from public life, and has since devoted himself to farming pursuits. He is greatly respected and esteemed by a large circle of friends.
E. S. RICHMOND was born at Leroy, N. Y., Dec. 2, 1820, and married Oct. 16, 1843, Miss Susan Readfield, of the same place, by whom he had five children, four of whom survive. He removed to DeKalb County, Ill., in 1860, and six years after came to Crockery engaging in the hotel business.
ALLYN SEYMOUR Was born in Oswego County, N. Y., in 1819, where he lived until 1855, having been married four years previous- ly, in 1851, to Miss Isabel Murray, by whom he has had four chil- dren, three of whom survive their mother, who died Dec. 22, 1865. In 1855 Mr. Seymour removed to Crockery and has been engaged in farming, in which he has met with success. He married again in Feb. 1869, Miss Margaret Ginkerson, who died in 1871, and in Feb. 1872, he married his present wife, Miss Jane Mudge.
WILLIAM THOMPSON, lumberman and farmer, Section 24, Crock. ery, was born in Monroe County, N. Y., on March 25, 1818, and moved on his present place in 1843, purchasing land the following year. He has 540 acres where he lives, and 1,000 acres in Moor- land. He has been associated for years with Mr. John Spoon in his lumbering operations. He married in 1844 Mis Mary E. Carpen- ter, who died July 2, 1862, and in 1863 he married Miss Mary J. Tibbits. He has three children. Mr. Thompson is a wealthy and enterprising man. His Moorland farm, which will be treated of in the history of that township, is a monument to his energy. .
SAMUEL VAN ETTEN was born in Tompkins Co., N. Y., in 1827, where he resided until 1832, when he moved to Seneca County. In 1847 he enlisted in the time of the Mexican war in Company K, 8th United States Regulars, Capt. Gates, Col. Stafford, and was dis-

charged at Jefferson, Missouri, Aug. 6, 1848. He then came to Chi- cago, and in the fall of the same year to Kalamazoo. Next year he went to Niles, Trumbull Co., Ohio, where he worked in the Rolling Mills. In 1852 he went to Steuben, where he was engaged in boat- ing on the Erie Canal until 1855, when he came to Crockery, where he has ever since resided, with the exception of the time he was at the late war. He enlisted Aug. 11, 1862, in Co. H, 4th Michigan Cavalry.
A. WARNER was born in England Feb. 7, 1815, and came to America in 1817, landing at Boston, where he continued to reside until 1837. He then went to La Salle Co., Ill., where he lived until Sept. 1856, when he came to Allendale, having purchased land of Henry Pennoyer, to reach which he had to cut his way for miles. Mr. Warner is engaged in lumbering and farming.
JAMES H. YOUNG was born in Gloster, R. I., in 1834, and in 1836 removed to New Hampshire; came to Crockery in 1862, set- tling on a farm and working at the carpenter trade. He enlisted in the navy in 1862, and next year was honorably discharged, and has been in saw-milling ever since.
HOMOCIDES IN OTTAWA COUNTY.
The cases of homocide which have occurred in the county have happily been very few:
Oct. 23, 1855, Jordon Turpin was tried for the murder of a man nmed Fox, of Spring Lake. After four days' trial he was found guilty, and sent to penitentiary for life. He died in prison.
In 1856 Ebenezer Spencer was found guilty of manslaughter, and imprisoned three years.
In October, 1875, John H. Fuller and his son, Melvin C. Fuller, were tried for the murder of an eccentric old man named Wilson Pound, of North Holland. John S. Watson, an accomplice, was used as State's evidence, and was released after four months in jail. The father, J. H, Fuller, was sent to prison for life, and the son was not convicted, although twice tried, one dissenting jury- man saving him. He went forth a free but branded man.
The probable reason of the murder was to prevent Pound from being a witness against the Fullers, who were charged with displac- ing the track of the railway.
The case of Mr. Cady, a highly respected farmer of Wright Town- ship, near Lamont village, who was brutally and wantonly mur- dered by a hired man named Voscamp, excited great popular feeling, and two attempts were made to lynch Voscamp in the jail, but they failed, and six of the would-be lynchers were captured, and after- wards fined $100 each. Voscamp tried the " insanity dodge," but was sent to prison for life.

MILITARY HISTORY
OF
OTTAWA AND MUSKEGON COUNTIES.
Under this head we give a general sketch of the military move- ments of the main bodies in which the residents of these two coun- ties enlisted. There are a few regiments omitted in which the num- ber of recruits was very trifling, but all the leading regiments are chronicled. A great deal of the private military history of individ- uals will be found in their respective biographies, arranged in their proper localities. These we have not thought necessary to repeat, as it would for no useful end unduly swell the volume. Suffice it to say that no other counties can show more individual instances of heroism.
The military history of these two counties is but a fragment of the general history of the loyal part of the nation. When the war cry rung, men rushed to arms. The pulsations of patriotism were strong. What were ease, property, home, wife, children, and friends, in comparison with the welfare of the country, then in jeopardy?
No part of the North responded more freely than Michigan. Men were eager to volunteer to endure the privations, hardships and dangers of the camp, the march, the bivouac, and the battle. When money was wanting, it was free. What cared men for gold, or for life itself, when the nation was going to pieces? A thousand from the Grand River region never returned, and Muskegon valley only furnished fewer because it was a newer and less settled region. All honor to the patriots and martyrs of the war.
On the 12th of April, 1861, the news was received in Michigan that civil war had been inaugurated by the rebels, at Charleston, South Carolina, firing upon Fort Sumter. On the following day a meeting was held in Detroit, at which resolutions were adopted re- pudiating the Rebellion, and pledging this community to " stand by the Government to the last." By the following Monday (April 15th), when the surrender of the South Carolina fortress was known throughout the land, and the call of the President of the United States for 75,000 volunteers had been received, the entire State was alive to the emergencies and duties of the hour, and the uprising of her people was universal. Public meetings were held in the prin- cipal cities and towns; pledges of assistance to the nation in its hour of peril were made, and volunteering commenced vigorously.
On April 16th, Gov. Blair arrived at Detroit and consulted with a number of citizens. The State had been called upon to furnish immediately, to the General Government, one Infantry Regiment, fully armed, clothed and equipped. During the same day a procla- mation was issued by the Governor, calling for ten companies of 'volunteers. On April 23d the Governor issued a proclamation con- vening the Legislature in extra session on May 7th.
On April 24th, the Adjutant-General issued an order organiz-
ing the First Regiment of Infantry and appointing its field officers. The rendezvous was fixed at Fort Wayne, and the various compa- nies ordered to assemble there immediately. The " Coldwater Bat- tery" was authorized, and rapidly recruited. On the 2d of May the companies of the First Regiment were mustered into service, and three other regiments had been formed. The Legislature convened on the 7th, and within four days authorized a war loan of one mil- lion dollars, and empowered the Governor to raise ten regiments.
On May 13th, the First Regiment left for the seat of war, fully armed and equipped; the organization of regiments, authorized by the Legislature, was rapidly pushed forward, and the requisition for men promptly met. In January, 1862, the Legislature was again convened in extra session, and the following Joint Resolution was adopted :
" WHEREAS, The Government of the United States is engaged in putting down a causeless and wicked rebellion against its author- ity and sovereignty, inaugurated by ambitious men to obtain polit- ical power,-a Government, the safety and perpetuity of which must ever rest upon the loyalty of its citizens, and an adherence to the Constitution;
" AND WHEREAS, The welfare of mankind, and the usefulness and power of the nation, are involved in the events and issues of the present conflict; therefore, be it
" Resolved, That Michigan, loyal to herself and to the Federal Government, re-affirms her undying hostility to traitors, her abiding love for freedom, and her confidence in the wisdom and patriotism of the National Administration.
" Resolved, That the people of Michigan deem it the imperative duty of the Government to speedily put down all insurrection against its authority and sovereignty, by the use of every Constitutional means, and by the employment of every energy it possesses; that Michigan stands firm in her determination to sustain, by men and treasure, the Constitution and the Union, and claims that the bur- den of loyal men should be lightened as far as possible, by confis- cating, to the largest extent, the property of all insurrectionists; and that as between the institution of slavery and the maintenance of the Federal Government, Michigan does not hesitate to say that in such emergency slavery should be swept from the land and our country maintained."
How truly the sentiments of the people of Michigan was set forth by their representatives in the State Legislature, the future success in furnishing men and money for the defense of the nation's honor, will abundantly testify.
From April, 1861, to April, 1865, the entire period of the war,

MILITARY HISTORY

the number of men enlisted and drafted, exclusive of men who en- listed in regiments of other States, as shown by the records of the Quartermaster General, was 92,729
Deducting from this aggregate the number of men com- muting 1,982
Shows the number actually furnished and credited to the State 90,747
When it is remembered that the entire population of Michigan in 1864 was 803,745, and that 90,747 able-bodied men took up arms in defense of the Union, the State may well be proud of the record. No other State in the Union has given to the defense of the nation a more patriotic, intelligent, and moral body of men than those who composed the Michigan regiments; not taken from the worthless and idle of large cities, but mostly from the good and industrious vocations of life.
The payments during the war by the Quartermaster General, for bounties, premiums for recruits, and other war purposes, amount to $2,784,408.00; the payments by counties, cities and townships, for same purposes, amount to $10,173,336.79; the payments by counties for relief of soldiers' families, amount to $3,591,248.12; making an aggregate of $16,548,992.91, besides liberal appropria- tions by the State for the relief of disabled and destitute soldiers.
CASUALTIES OF THE WAR.
The State of Michigan, gratefully realizing and duly appre- ciating the noble sacrifice of life made by so many of her gallant sons upon the altar of their country's liberty, who fell while bravely contending for our national life, and honoring the State; desiring to perpetuate their memory by inscribing their names upon a roll of imperishable honor, to pass into the future as a bright and lasting record of their patriotism and true devotion to American nationality and freedom, worthy the highest and purest veneration of their fellow-countrymen for all coming time; through her Legislature, by a Joint Resolution, approved April 3d, 1869, caused the compilation upon parchment, under the direction of Gen. John Robertson, Adjutant-General, of a " Roll of Honor" of Michigan soldiers who fell in battle, or who died of wounds or of disease. This rolt is deposited in the State Library, and contains the names of 357 com- missioned officers, and 14,466 enlisted men,-a total of 14,823 men,-who fell in defense of their nation's honor, from the year 1861 to 1865.

In the general summary of results in the Adjutant-General's report we find Muskegon County credited, during the whole war, with 736 men, and Ottawa County, 1,547 men. Total from the two counties, 2,283, which is a highly creditable showing, considering the population, and this does not include men enlisted in the regi- ments of other States.
THE MARTYRS.
The following is a list of those who offered up their lives on the altar of their country during the war, compiled from the Adju- tant-General's reports, and other sources. The list is necessarily imperfect, as it does not include those who enlisted in the regiments of other States, but only those that are credited to the State of Michigan. Let us honor their memory as patriots who died in the cause of right and freedom.
" How sleep the brave who sink to rest With all their country's honors blessed."
