Daniel was wounded twice and returned to battle after each. Daniel worked in the lumber woods and helped farmers clear their lands for farming & helped harvest crops in Mecosta County.

2Clara and Emma's birth dates from Mecosta Co. Birth records.
3Mecosta County MI marriage records: MARGARET CASTLE, DANIEL L HALE, 08 MAR 1866.
41880 Grant Township, Mecosta County, MI CENSUS, page 2 & 3; Daniel L. Hale, age 39, a farmer, his father born in New York, his mother born in Vermont., Mary A. Hale - age 26, Clara - age 9, Wilber - age 4, Avenial - age 1. A daughter "Emma" b.1874, was NOT listed. She had probably died by 1880. That was probably a terrible scare for Daniel, after losing his first wife and children in one year. Daniel and Mary were born in New York, All children were born in Michigan.
5IGI File #2078183 agrees with all information above plus give Mary Barr's middle name as "Adelia" and gives a date of marriage as 5 Aug, 1871 in Charlotte, Eaton County, MI... which fits perfectly with estimated date of marriage of 1871.


6 Daniel served in the 7th MI Cavalry, Company D. during the Civil War, and is buried at Oakdale Cemetery in Hersey, Osceola County, MI. Under George Armstrong Custer of Monroe, Michigan. This was the only Union brigade created completely of troops from a single State.
