Son of Samuel and Hannah Market Emrick.

Civil War: Private, Company F, 29th Iowa Infantry Regiment - captured by Confederate troops April 30, 1864, at Jenkins Ferry, Arkansas.

Wm. H. Emrick, Co. F, 29th Iowa, Mahaska, Kan., was captured at Jenkins's Ferry, April 30, 1864, at the time Gen. Steele was defeated, and was on the retreat back to Little Rock. He was taken to Camden, and, after being confined in several prisons, was finally, with 250 other men, put in an old cotton gin, where they suffered untold torments. He very well remembers four Yankees who were brought in there who had made their escape from Tyler, Tex., and if any of the four are alive he would like to hear from them.
