Biographies of the original members who served in Co D, 149th PA during the Civil War. Taken from a book entitled, " General History of Company D, 149th Pennsylvania Volunteers, 1862 - 1865 & Personal Sketches of the Members," compiled by John W Nesbit, printed by The Oakdale Printing & Publishing Company, 1908. Asterisk in front of the name denotes there is a picture of that individual in the book. *GLENN, James Captain James Glenn, who organized Company D, was a military man before the War, having entered the State service under the old Militia Laws, as Second Lieutenant in the Pennsylvania Blues, an independent Allegheny County Military Company. In this organization he was promoted to First Lieutenant and Captain; his Company being a good organization, and well known under the old system. He was mustered into the Volunteer Service for the Civil War as Captain of Company D, 149th Pa. Volunteers, August 22, 1862, and promoted to Major, April 22, 1864, and to Lieutenant Colonel January 08, 1865. After the Regiment joined the Army of the Potomac it was assigned to the Third Division, First Army Corps, and Captain Glenn was Provost Marshal of the Division. He served in this capacity until he was promoted to Major. Captain Glenn was placed in command of the Regiment after the fight at Gettysburg, July 01, 1863 - the Colonel, Lieutenant Colonel and Major being disabled by wounds - and had charge of the Regiment through the second and third days of the battle, and up to July 6th, when Major Irvin returned and took command. After the battle of Dabney's Mills, February 07, 1865, the Regiment was ordered to Elmira, N.Y., for special duty, and Lieut. Col. Glenn was there placed on detailed court martial service. He was mustered out of the service August 22, 1865. After the war Captain Glenn was elected Major in the 14th Regiment, N.G.P., September 01, 1875; promoted to Lieutenant Colonel January 20, 1877, and to Colonel in January, 1882. After serving a term as Colonel he retired roll February 25, 1888. Captain Glenn was well known in the community in which he lived, had no difficulty in securing the requisite number of men to organize a Company for the Civil War, and with the assistance of his Lieutenants and First Sergeant, the Company soon became proficient in drill and discipline. During his service he became known as a fighting officer, being frequently assigned to other commands when severe fighting was expected. He was almost reckless in his bravery. It was a common remark among the boys that "the Captain didn't know when he was licked" and after his attempt to rally half a dozen members of his Company on the retreat from Seminary Hill at Gettysburg, to stop the advance of a division of Lee's Army, followed by his service in the Wilderness and other campaigns, the mention of his name was sure to recall recollection of his bravery and soldierly qualities. He served his entire term of service without sickness or wounds, and was engaged in every march, skirmish or battle in which the Regiment participated. After the war he engaged in the grain and feed business and made his home with his sister, Mrs. Robb, of Glendale, Allegheny Co., Pa., where he lived, honored and respected by the entire community and kindly remembered by the surviving members of his old company. He died August 23, 1902, and was buried by his surviving comrades in the cemetery at Mt. Lebanon, Allegheny Co., Pa. *GORDON, David Miller Private Gordon enlisted August 22, 1862, and served continuously with the company except when on duty with the Quartermaster's Department. He was in charge of a section of the ammunition train. While in this service his experience was both exciting and dangerous. At Gettysburg his section was on duty each day and night. The first and second days of this battle, the ammunition had to be hauled from army headquarters, some miles to the rear, and with the loss of men and mules disabled and killed it became almost impossible to keep the batteries and infantry on the firing line supplied with ammunition, but during the night of July 2nd, and the forenoon of July 3rd, 1863, the trains were kept constantly moving, and by the time the cannonade opened between the two armies a fair supply of solid shot, grape and canister and other ammunition was within reach of the line of battle. Private Gordon in describing the part this section of the ammunition train took in this day's fight, says that when the ball opened "solid shot was ordered up and the men and drivers with the train were compelled to personally deliver the ammunition to the gunners under a most terrific fire. It was dangerous work, and when the cannonading ceased and the Confederate lines moved out from Seminary Ridge, under orders they delivered a full stock of grape and cannister to the batteries stationed back of the Bloody Angle, and the whole lot was delivered to Pickett's Division at cost." After the Battle of Gettysburg, the next movement in which the artillery took part was the "Mine Run" campaign. On this march Moseby with his battalion of guerillas made a raid on their train, and they had hot work for a short time, but he was soon driven off. After this movement the train was in winter quarters until the army moved for the Wilderness campaign, and through this movement up to Petersburg the artillery, while under fire more or less, was not closely engaged. When the Regiment was ordered to Elmira, N.Y., Private Gordon returned to the company. He was on duty constantly from start to finish, and took part in every battle, skirmish or march in which the Army of the Potomac participated during his term of service, without wounds or sickness, and was mustered out with the company. Returning to his old neighborhood, he resumed farming, and is now a resident of Paris, Washington Co., Pa. HICKMAN, John Park Private Hickman enlisted when the company was organized August 22, 1862, and served with the company until after the Regiment joined the Army of the Potomac. Here the exposure and hardships of camp life caused an attack of fever, and when the army moved to Chancellorsville he was sent with others to the general hospital at Aquia Creek, Va., where he grew worse and died April 27, 1863. The early death of Private Hickman prevented active service on his part, but his cheerful and kindly disposition had made him popular, and his death was a source of regret to the entire company. He was the son of John Hickman, of near Bridgeville, Pa. His brother, Joseph Hickman, and his sister, Mrs. Rebecca Morgan, of Bridgeville, with numerous relatives and friends survive him. *HOLLAND, John Banks John Banks Holland enlisted as a Private when the company was organized, and served in that capacity during his entire term of service. He participated in every battle or skirmish in which the company was engaged, from start to finish, escaping without a scratch or sickness. Private Holland is one of the men who served their entire term with the company without detached service or outside duty of any kind. He was thoroughly in earnest in his service; was an excellent soldier and ready for duty at all times. He was mustered out with the company, and after his return he entered the schools of Allegheny county as a teacher and principal, but after some time he resumed farming, and is now located near McDonald, Pa. He is active in public matters, and is a prominent and useful citizen, being at present a member of the Penna. Legislature from Washington county. HUBERT, Henry (seen as Henry HUBBARD in the company roster) Private Hubert was enrolled when the company was organized and served with the company until March 09, 1963, when, while in Pittsburgh on furlough, he was burned to death, being caught asleep in a burning building. Private Hubert was quite an old man, and had no opportunity to take part in active service, as the Regiment had not been engaged. *JONES, Benjamin C. Corporal Jones was enrolled when the company was organized as a Private; was promoted to Corporal August 23, 1862, and served until the close of the war, part of the time on detached duty at Division or Brigade Headquarters, being an excellent penman and well qualified for office duties.

He served his entire term without sickness, but was wounded at the battle of North Anna, December 01, 1864. He was promoted Corporal for continuous faithful service and gallant conduct on the field. He was quiet and unobtrusive, always up to the firing line, and a general favorite in the company and Regiment. At the battle of Dabney's Mills he carried James C. Barclay, who was severely wounded by his side, and who begged of him not to leave him to the mercy of the Rebels, bodily off the field, and saved him from capture. Corporal Johnston was mustered out with the company, and now resides on his farm near Morganza, Washington county, Pa., a substantial and prosperous citizen, surrounded by a happy family and respected by his friends, neighbors and old comrades. *JOHNSTON, William Robb (see also DORRINGTON, Frank C.)

After the battle he was packed off to Fredericksburg in a heavy army wagon with Sergeant Dorrington and other wounded men, and finally sent to a hospital at Washington. After a short time he recovered sufficiently to go home on a furlough. After the expiration of his furlough he reported to a hospital at Pittsburgh, Pa., and having recovered from the effects of his wound, at his own request was allowed to return to the front, where he arrived August 06, 1864, surprising his comrades, who were then in the trenches in front of Petersburg, by reporting so soon for duty. Sergeant Johnston took part in every battle, march or skirmish in which the company was engaged, except when absent wounded. He was promoted to Sergeant September 01, 1864. He was an excellent soldier, always in line for a fight, and popular among his comrades.

KROME, Frederick Private Krome enlisted with the company August 22, 1864, (this is the year given in the book, but it is probably a typo and should be 1862) and served almost continuously with the company, taking part in every campaign or battle in which the company was engaged. He was slightly wounded at Gettysburg July 01, 1863, but did not leave the company. He served for a short time with the Mounted Pioneers at Fifth Corps headquarters, and was sick and absent from the company for three days after the Battle of Laurel Hill May 08, 1864.

Private Marks was a sincere and earnest believer in the ultimate success of our armies; was a soldier from principle, and as such could not be otherwise than a good soldier. His kindly disposition, together with the terrible sufferings he endured, had endeared him to his comrades, and he was followed to his home on his discharge with the best wishes of all.
