SOME CIVIL WAR SOLDIRES OF NORTHWESTERN MAINE (M-Z)

David Porter Peary (also spelled Peavey) was the son of War of 1812 veteran Moses Peary, and was born in
1822 in Denmark, Oxford County. In September, 1850, he was a Sandy River farmer who owned $50 in real
estate and lived with the family of David and Betsy Hoar. He married their daughter Deborah later that year
and in 1860 was a farm laborer in Rangeley with two daughters. Peary enlisted from Rangeley in Company E,
13th Maine Infantry, on December 10, 1861. He re-enlisted on February 29, 1864, and was transferred to
Company B, 30th Maine Infantry, on January 5, 1865, when the 13th was mustered out. He was mustered out
with the 30th Maine on August 20, 1865, at Savannah, Georgia.. In 1870, Peary was a farmer in Rangeley with three
children, real estate worth $600, and other assets valued at $160. He and his wife lived in Rangeley in 1880 with
their four daughters and an infant grandson, David. Peary applied for a pension in 1883. In 1900, he and his wife,
who had been married for 50 years, were living in Greenvale Plantation, which soon became part of Sandy River.
He died on September 19, 1901. His widow applied for a pension that year and died in 1916. They are buried in
Evergreen Cemetery; stones for them and their daughter Florence are at the Schoolhouse Cemetery.

James Hall Peary (also Peavey) was born in on Christmas day, 1843, the son of Stephen and Susanna (Rowe) Peary.
He enlisted in Company E, 13th Maine Infantry, on December 10, 1861 and re-enlisted on February 29, 1864. He
died on August 17, 1864, when the regiment was on duty in Washington and veterans were on two months' furlough -
sources differ on whether he died of wounds or disease, and the place is not specified. His mother applied for a
pension in 1890 and died in 1908. Peary and his mother are buried in the Evergreen Cemetery in Phillips.
