As I indicated previously, my G-grandfather, Benjamin S. Campbell was wounded during the May 19, 1864 action. His cousin, William B. Campbell was wounded same day, lost his right leg. I believe William was Clerk of Courts in Ellsworth sometime later. Did he have a family? I have a little Campbell information to share. Tuesday, August 31, 1999 - Orono, ME USA

My gGrandfather was James Langley of 1st Regiment Hvy Artly Company B Maine Volunteers. He had two older brothers Charles and Thomas Langley in the same unit. He enlisted in Bangor, Maine on November 16,1863 and was discharged on September 11, 1865 at Fort Baker, D.C. One of his brothers was killed by a mini-ball and the other was wounded and received disability. James was 14 or barely 15 when he enlisted. James later moved to Sumpter, Minnesota, where he homesteaded and died at age 26 from after effects of illnesses received while in the civil war. Sumpter is very close to Glencoe, Minn. I possess his original discharge papers. Tuesday, October 19, 1999 - Missoula, Mt. USA
