Private, Company G, Age 25 From Kittery

Samuel Mugridge, 27th Maine Inf

SAMUEL MUGRIDGE was born circa 1838, likely in Kittery, ME to the Deacon Benjamin and his first wife Mary R. Odiorne [see notes below]. He died on 15 May, 1866 at the age of 28 years and is buried with the other Mugridge's of Kittery in the First Christian Church Cemetery in Kittery [YCCI, pg 1032].
   He married, around 23 Sept, 1863 [intents filed in Kittery on this date, VR of Kittery, pg 487], to ANN M LINSCOTT of York, Maine. I have not yet discovered any data on her, and her whereabouts after death of husband are not known at this time.
   Samuel is seen with his parents in the Kittery censuses for 1850 and 1860 (at ages 12 and 22, respectively). I have not found his widow in the 1870 census, and do not know if this couple had any children. I do not find Samuel, or his widow, on the Civil War Pension Index as well.
 
NOTES: a Benjamin Jr of Kittery married Mary R Odiorne of New Castle, NH on 9 Nov, 1834 - she died in 1848. He marr 2nd Abby N White in 1850, who died in 1853. He then marr Almira P Graves in 1855, with her dying in 1876. He marr a 4th time to Mrs Clementine Graves, widow of Capt Alexander, in 1877. Only his 1st marr rec calls him Jr - his supposed father Benjamin died in 1839. Most of the Mugridge family of Kittery are buried together in a plot at the First Christian Church Cem in Kittery [YCCI, pg 1031-32].
