Elias descends from William Andrew who was one of the earliest arrivals in MA. He had one son born in Rochester, NY where he was employed from 1840 until the summer of 1853 when they returned to CT.
Elias enlisted in Aug 1862 and his third son was born in Oct 1862. Early documents list his surname as Andrew while later documents and letters list his surname as Andrews which is what his wife and children used. It is apparent that people who were filling out documents were hearing what they wanted resulting in the morph into Andrews.
He left a wife, Elvira Clarissa 'Clara', who died in Indianapolis, IN in 1898 and three sons; Edgar Clark b. 26 Jun 1851 in Rochester, NY, William Henry b. 26 Jan 1856 in Oxford, CT, and Charles Emerson b. 28 Oct 1862 in Oxford, CT d. Los Angeles 1951, buried Crown Hill Cemetery, Indianapolis, IN.
