Obituary:
PHILIP CALDABAUGH, 86, CIVIL WAR VETERAN, DIES
Prominent Glendale Man Saw Service With General Sherman
Philip Caldabaugh, one of the eldest and best known residents of this district, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Wm. K. Thornburg in Glendale at two o'clock this morning.
His passing away removes another of the few remaining veterans of the Civil war.
Mr. Caldabaugh was born March 13, 1845, and was therefore in his 86th year. His early years were spent on a farm near Brownsville, Monroe county, Ohio. At the beginning of the Civil war he offered his services in defence of his country but was rejected on account of his youth. He was later accepted, however, and served in Company F, 189th Ohio Volunteer Infantry and was mustered in at Marietta, O. His Regiment was attached to General Sherman's Army and did duty in Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama. At the close of the Civil war he came to Wheeling and resided there until ten years ago when he moved to Glendale where he resided until the time of his death.
He has been retired for the past twenty years. He at one time conducted a drayage business of South Wheeling and disposed of this and was employed at the Riverside Tube Works.
He was a member of the Glendale M. E. Church but when residing in Wheeling was a member of the Wesley M. E. church for thirty years.
His parents as well as three brothers and four sisters have preceded him. He is survived by the following daughters and sons; Miss Laura M. Caldabaugh, Mrs. Wm. K. Thornburg, Charles P. Caldabaugh, John C. Caldabaugh and Chester W. Caldabaugh all of Glendale, Harry E. Caldabaugh of Wheeling and Geo. W. Caldabaugh of Los Angeles, Cal. There also survive him twelve grandchildren. Funeral arrangements are incomplete.
