Union soldier in the American Civil War.
"The death of Abram Gunderman of Lodi on Saturday, March 24th, removes a worthy and respected citizen of this place. His death will be deplored by many. He was born June 15th, 1844, was a veteran of the civil war, enlisted August 1, 1862, in Co. E, 148 N. Y. S. V., at the time a small slender boy 18 years of age. His family was one of the most patriotic families in this whole section of the country. Abram was one of the youngest of four brothers to give his services — life if need be — to his country, viz: Conrad of the 126th who lost an arm, John of the 126th, all now dead, and William, who died in Andersonville prison.
Clara Gunderman, their mother, at the time they all enlisted, lived on the place now owned by Mr. Lewis Townsend. She was a widow at the time and about all she possessed was the four noble young boys. It was and is today, an honor to know that she had as one of her citizens a woman like Clara Gunderman. Abram Gunderman's record during the civil war was one of distinguished service and conspicuous bravery. He was engaged in many hard fought battles and continued in service to the end of the war.
Funeral services were held at the home under the auspices of A. J. Chestnut Post, G. A. R., and were conducted by the Rev. E. J. Meeker of the Reformed church. Interment at Lodi Cemetery. Great sympathy is expressed for the children of the deceased. Lodi is today poorer for the loss of a good citizen and a man of real Worth." (Interlaken Review, 30 March 1917)
