David Mahoney

Mustered Out

  Tuesday afternoon when the forces of the King of day were being rapidly mobilized to other fields than ours, the soul of the veteran David Mahoney reported to the Great Commander.
  David Mahoney was born in Ireland seventy-two years ago, came to this country in early manhood, married Miss Anna Clancy, in Massachusetts. Later he entered Co. I, seventy-fourth regiment, Ohio infantry, and served his country with honor until the close of the rebellion. The deceased came to Adams county in 1868 as one of the road builders of the Burlington. He was a good man and after a lingering illness passed away from his Corning home.
  His aged wife and helpless invalid daughter, Nellie, survive him to whom The Free Press, and many friends extend sympathy.
  The funeral services were held at St. Patrick's church, Father P. J. Morin officiating, and interment was made in South cemetery.
(Adams County Free Press, Thursday, June 29, 1893)
