Joseph the son of Samuel ( 1787-1841) and Mary Adams (1806-1879 Albin was born about 1835. He married Mary Elizabeth Dryden, December 27, 1853 in Clark CO.,OH.
They had three children:
Laura Emma born Oct 27, 1854
Jennie M. born July 1, 1858 Died 29 April 1863, age 4
Franklin Milton born August 20, 1860
Joseph enlisted in the Union Army in the Civil War, Feb 3, 1864 at Indianapolis, Indiana. He served as a private in Company D, 84'th Indiana Infantry. Volunteer regiment. He was captured by the Confederates 23 June of 1864 and was sent to prison. He died at the Andersonville Prison as a result of chronic diarrhea shortly thereafter. Therefore he died in 1864, no exact day available and it was at the prison. No known place of burial has been found so I am putting him a virtual cemetery to be connected to his family and not be forgotten.
Joseph might be in the Andersonville, Georgia prison cemetery with other unknown soldiers.
After some research it came to light that this prison had the worst reputation of them all. The water was poluted, men were made to drink water they washed in, there was no food, other conditions were deplorable. They were starved to the point of death, and then most did die from disease and or starvation. The rest I cannot write.
His children received a pension Claim #94637
