Funeral services will be held Sunday afternoon at 3 from the Christian church in charge of it’s pastor, the Rev. Perry Atkins, and burial will be in Elmwood cemetery. The following sketch of his life was dictated by Mr. Dudrow May 21, 1923, at which time he was 81 years, 9 months and 8 days old. Charles David Dudrow was born August 16, 1841 in Frederick county, Maryland. When I was about 8 years old my father went to the state of Ohio, in the northern part where he settled in Seneca county, near the city of Tiffin, where we lived until I was 14 years old, when I went to farming and was a farmer until the Civil war broke out. October 12, 1861, I enlisted in Company H, 55th Regiment, Ohio Volunteer Infantry, and went into Camp McClellan at Norwalk, O., where we remained and drilled until January 8, 1862, when we were ordered to Grafton, Va. From there wewent to Moorefield, Va. And then back to camp. We were ordered to Kranklin, Va. (sic), and there joined General Fremont’s army, went up through the Shenandoah valley and had a skirmish with General Stonewall Jackson and Lee’s armies at Bull Run (second battle), after which the Army of the Potomac fell back to Washington, where we remained and did picket and guard duty while McClellan’s army went into Maryland to head off Jackson and his army at Antietam. The Army of the Potomac remained near Washington during the winter of ’62. In the spring of ’63 General Hooker took command of the Army of the Potomac, crossed the Rappehannock and the Rapidan to Chancellorsville, where we met Lee and Jackson and had a three day engagement with them. Hooker’ army being defeated, in which battle I was wounded May 2, 1863, and taken prisoner. I was paroled and sent to the Union camp, from which point I was sent to Washington to the hospital and remained there a short time, afterwards being sent to Baltimore, where I remained until the battle of Gettysburg. I was sent to Point Lookout, Md. On the Chesapeake bay, where I remained as a prisoner eight months, until I was exchanged. From Point Lookout I was sent to Alexandria to the convalescent camp, after which I joined my regiment at Chattanooga, Tenn. In May, 1864, I started with General Sherman to the sea, going as far as Atlanta, where my term of enlistment expired and I was discharged and returned to my home in Tiffin, O. In my three years’ service, I was in six general engagements: Second battle of Bull Run. Battle of Chancellosville. Battle of Resaca, Ga. Battle of Kenesaw Mountain Battle of Peach Tree Creek, and The taking of Atlanta, and a great many skirmishes. In the spring of 1876, I was married on April 2, at Republic O., to Amsdell Kelsey of Green Springs, O. Of this union three children were born—Mrs. Carrie B. Shinn, Chanute, Kan.; Mary C. Dudrow, Tulsa, Okla.; and Dora Ellen Dudrow, deceased. In 1881, I came to Kansas, on January 12, and took a claim twelve and one-half miles southwest of Chanute in Wilson county, where-on I lived until the year of 1883, when I removed with my family to Fredonia, Kan., where I lived until May, 1896, removing to Chanute, Kan., where I have since lived. I have always been a faithful and earnest member of the Grand Army of the Republic and became a member of the Christian church in 1873. |
