Note	Division. Vol. 47 Page 13 Information from Floyd Ball through the internet http://genforum.genealogy.com/stafford/messa ges/1407.html Our Isaac Stafford is a Junior, and was born in Lancastershire, England. His father Isaac Stafford Sr. was born around 1816, joined the Union Army in 1862 and was in the Civil War. Mus t have been a popular name, I found 14 of the same name in the Civil war. Died at: 1124 Walnut St., Coshocton Notes for Isaac Stafford Jr. Brought to America at age 3. Following is an article from the COSHOCTON DEMOCRAT dated 9/2/1863: "FATAL ENCOUNTER-THREE MEN KILLED AND ONE MAN WOUNDED" "On Thursday night last about midnight some five or six soldiers detailed for the purpose by Capt. Irvine of the 9th Ohio Cavalry, visited the house of a Mr. Lower, a drafted man, living in Crawford Twp., in order to arrest him and another man by the name of Vance. After surrounding the homes and not finding them they proceeded to the barn with a light. They were soon met on the outside by the men for whom they were searching, armed with rifles and revolvers. Firing commenced immediately and was kept up between them until both the drafted men wer e shot down, one killed on the spot, and the other living some twelve or fifteen hours. The attacking party had one man killed, and another shot through the side, supposed at first to be fatal, but it seems he is likely to recover. We learn that Colonel Irvine was ordered to take them dead or alive. They were both buried in one grave followed to their last resting place by a large concourse of people". THE COSHOCTON TIMES dated Friday, January 6, 1893 published the following article about the Raid; " IN THE DAYS OF '63" Deputy Provost Marshall's Raid Into Crawford Township. Interview With Mr. William A. Johnston, Late Deputy Provost Marshall of Coshocton County. "Good morning Mr. Johnston. I am glad to see you so well preserved--hope you are contented and happy." "Take a seat--I am pleased to have you call. Can I do anything for you?". "Yes, if you can spare the time." "It will afford me great pleasure to spare you a portion of my time. What is it?". "In the interest of THE AGE'S readers, I would ask you to give me a detailed history of the so called Crawford township raid". "Well Mr. AGE man, it has been a long time since that trouble and I may not remember all the particulars necessary to a complete history of the affair, but will endeavor, in brief, to do the subject justice." "Thanks. Please proceed." "Well, after the draft in 1863, there was quite a number of drafted men in the County who failed to report according to law. I had been appointed Deputy Provost Marshall of Coshocton County by Capt. John A. Sinnet, Provost Marshall of this, then Congressional District, with Headquarters at Newark, Ohio. After waiting a reasonable time for these drafted men to report at his headquarters and their failure to do so, Capt. Sinnet furnished me with a list of such men and ordered me to arrest and bring to his headquarters. "In the month of July. 1863, I summoned the following named persons to assist me in making a number of arrests in Crawford township; George Bible, William T. Dicker, G. G. Andrews, S amuel Taylor, George La Retilley, ISAAC STAFFORD, REUBEN STAFFORD, Daniel Rose, John Taylor, James Porter, Milan Kinney, Andy Jack, Nathan Carnahan, Seth Tubbs, N. R. Tidball, Samuel M orrison, Nathan Elliot, Wm. Hout, Alex. Carnahan, and John Swigert." "Apprehending some trouble of a violent nature in that stronghold of opposition to the draft and the war, these men were armed and equipped according to law and felt that they could whip their weight in wildcats. When a short distance from Lewisville, the raiding party was divided into sections, one section taking the road to New Bedford, the other the road to Chili, with the view of raiding both roads and meeting up at Chili and exchanging notes before proceeding further on our mission---shall I say of mercy? It did not prove such. The section of men on Chili road was placed under command of Samuel Morrison, and that on the Bedford road I took charge of. At about daybreak next morning Morison's party surrounded the house where they expected to find Louis Wentz and JOHN LOWER---I think I have these names correctly. After searching house and immediate premises and failing to find their men, concluded they ha d been misinformed and were about to leave, when a women, in German language, told her boy to go to the barn, which was some distance away, and notify LOWER and Wentz so they could escape to the woods close by. George Bible, who understood the order of the woman to the boy, informed his comrades who rushed to the barn in advance of the boy and surrounded it, thus preventing their escape. After a short parley REUBEN STAFFORD, one of the bravest of the brave, went to the barn door, threw it open and received the shot from LOWER'S gun and soon died. LOWER was then in turn fired upon and instantly killed. Wentz rushed from the barn to get away, but was soon overtaken by a gunshot wound in the bowels and died the next day. I had Wentz removed to the house and sent for a physician. When I asked Wentz why he and LOWER had allowed themselves to get into this trouble, he replied that they had gone to town ‎(Coshocton)‎ a short time ago with money enough to pay for substitutes but had been advised there by some disloyal and indiscreet person to save their money, and shoot and kill whoever came after them. He gave me names of these ill advisers, but, as they are now dead, let the mantel of forgivene ss cover their unpatriotic conduct. "LOWER'S dead body was turned over to his friends, and the dead body of STAFFORD, of the raiding party, conducted to his family." "Of course the news of this sad affair flew like wildfire. Before we left Chili, I received a note from my brother, Matthew Johnston, saying stand your ground Bill---Say how much help you need and you shall have it. It is needless to say that this short note thrilled my soul with brotherly love and greatly encouraged me in the performance of my duty." "I am informed that REUBEN STAFFORD'S widow is now drawing a small pension from the U.S. Government, and Samuel Taylor, who received a gunshot in the side, is also drawing a small pension." "In this recital of the so-called Crawford township raid, I have been cautious to avoid wounding the feelings of any person or persons, living or dead, and if you Mr. AGE men, will accept it in that spirit, you are welcome to it." "Thanks---Many thanks, Mr. Johnston, and I assure you I accept your statements in the spirit you indicate." It appears that the brother of the woman his brother Isaac married killed Reuben Stafford . In the Civil War. Enlisted May 2, 1864 at the age of 27. His father was already in the Union Army.
