He was 66 years old.
husband of Amanda (Wertz) Bausman who died August 9, 1894 at age 54
The son of Jacob & Susan Eva (Mowery) Bausman, in 1860 he was a laborer living with and/or working for farmer William Albert in East Hanover Township, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. He stood 5' 10" tall and had brown hair and blue eyes. He is in that census as a fifteen-year-old.
A Civil War veteran, he enlisted at the overstated age of eighteen in Annville, Lebanon County, September 17, 1861, and mustered into federal service at Lebanon October 21 as a private with Co. K, 93rd Pennsylvania Infantry. He was wounded in the thigh at Gettysburg allegedly on July 2, and hospitalized. His obituary in the Harrisburg Telegraph claims he remained hospitalized for the remainder of the war, but that is unlikely given subsequent events. (Future research will reveal the truth.) He re-enlisted as a Veteran Volunteer January 1, 1864, at Brandy Station, Virginia, and honorably discharged by general order June 27, 1865. In March 1864, his brother William joined him in the company.
He married Amanda Wertz and fathered Catherine Elizabeth (b. 04/19/66), Ellen Rebecca (b. @1869, d. 06/10/84), Benjamin Augustus (b. 04/07/71), and Sarah Alice "Sadie" (b. 04/??/77 - married Samuel P. Trostle). Amanda died August 9, 1894, and he married Christina Brown, who died January 1905. He died from "chronic interstitial nephritis" with "asthma - cardiac dilatation" a contributing factor at his Harrisburg home where he had been a member of Simmons Post No. 116, G.A.R.
