Mr. Quinn enlisted in the Third Indiana Cavalry in 1862 and served for two years and ten months. He was on Sherman's March to the Sea. On November 5, 1868 he was united in marriage to Mary Ellen Squire. Soon after their marriage, they moved to their farm, two miles northwest of Cutler, Indiana, where they resided until ten years ago when they moved to Cutler. To them were born seven sons and two daughters: Dallas, Orth, William who died in infancy, Ell Dee who died eight years ago, Dr. Claude, Blanchard, Everie, Mrs. Ruia Cripe of this city, and Mrs. Audrey Bonebrake. he also leaves three sisters: Mrs. Rebecca Sharp of Delphi; Mrs. Ellen Ayres of Bringhurst; Mrs. Anna Ashby of Marion and two brothers: George Quinn of Indianapolis and Edward Quinn of Bringhurst.
