John Sherwood Pinney (Age 17 or 18) Pinney, John S., Pvt., 1st Cl 351ST AMBULANCE COMPANY
An interesting side to this story is John's Grandfather
Curtis Sherwood Pinney fought in the Civil War along with 3 of his brothers in
the 154th New York Volunteers. Fought at Bull Run, Chancellorville and
Gettysburg. Curtis also was with General Sherman's "March to the
Sea". A copy of a letter that Pinney had written concerning Curtis
Pinney's pioneer move to Michigan from New York after the Civil War. It's
quite interesting and can be viewed at http://www.ole.net/~maggie/antrim/pinney.htm
