Harvey in the West Virginia state militia during the civil war. When you served in the state militia, you got no recognition, no pension, etc.- even though they saw action! Harvey served as a Private for Capt D Gould, C Co for the Union Aug 19, 1862 - Sep 16,1863. Note I said Union and this was while it was still Virginia. Per remarks in the record, he was 'actually under arms'. More than half of the company was taken to Andersonville Prison on the day he escaped. Source: The records are in WVarchives.
