This, due of the four patriotic sons of Amos and Sally (Milliken) Milliken, was born
July Pi, 1835, in Saco, Me. His three brothers were in the Union army and all earned
honorable records. Moses S. and David served in the Seventeenth Missouri and Twentieth Illinois, respectively; and Lieut. Abraham II. received a commission in the Twelfth Regiment. (See roster as corrected below.) In Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville (where he was wounded in left arm), and Cold Harbor, where he was so badly injured by a fall in the charge as to disable him from taking the field again and affect him for life, He was sent to hospital and soon was furloughed home. Upon his return to Washington he again was sent to hospital until April, 1865, when he was sent into Pennsylvania after recruits, getting to Harrisburg the same day that the martyred Lincoln lay in state there. From there he was sent to North Carolina and thence back to Washington where he was discharged. See incident, page 417.
He was married December 13, 1858, to Harriet E. Lee, of Paw Paw, Mich. Children, Willie L. (deceased) and Hattie J.
He was a dyer by trade when he enlisted, but after the war worked twelve years in a
repair shop at Bangor, Mich., and then moved to Michigan City, Ind., where he lived two
years, when he removed to Crete. Neb., where he now resides. A farmer most of the time
since discharge, being employed at present as a large market gardener.
Since the printing of the roster at the end of this book, the order of "dishonorably
discharged" in the case of Lieut. A. H. Milliken, above referred to, has been revoked by
the War Department and he restored (see how it leads).
