DESCRIPTION: After marching north through the Shenandoah Valley from Lynchburg, the Confederate army of Lt. Gen. Jubal A. Early side-stepped the Federal garrison at Harpers Ferry and crossed the Potomac River at Shepherdstown into Maryland on July 5-6. On July 9, 1864, a makeshift Union force under Maj. Gen. Lew Wallace attempted to arrest Early's invading Confederate divisions along the Monocacy River, just east of Frederick. Wallace, joined by Ricketts's Division of the VI Corps that had been rushed from the Petersburg lines, was outflanked by Gordon's Division and defeated after putting up a stiff resistance. Hearing of Early's incursion into Maryland, Grant embarked the rest of the VI Corps on transports at City Point, sending it with all dispatch to Washington. Wallace's defeat at Monocacy bought time for these veteran troops to arrive to bolster the defenses of Washington. Early's advance reached the outskirts of Washington on the afternoon of July 11, and the remaining divisions of the VI Corps began disembarking that evening. Monocacy was called the "Battle that Saved Washington."
RESULTS: Confederate Victory

Notes:

Don't know if this was an only child, but believe it was. Heirs are mentioned in the Grandfather's will made in 1852. Seems odd that both Albert and Miriam died the same day or within 2 days of one another. Could something tragic have happened? They are buried in a family cemetery. (Moore's south of Cuba on a farm off State Rt. 68. Foot stones are marked A. F. and M. M. F. Information by C. E. Florea, father of Harold. Comment by Stella Berger. In the Clinton County Court House Records, there are records of two young children (Florea) who had guardians appointed for them about this time. The names are Albert L. and Amanda L. I believe Isaac Florea was their Guardian, therefore the connection. I did not find a Clarissa Florea, but C. E. Florea apparently found this from relatives or friends, as he made many visitations several years ago to Clinton County. Heirs of Albert are mentioned in Isaac's will made in 1852, but no names.

Notes:

MEMORIES... by Patricia Beck Hormell
Everyone says she had a fiery temper and was very feisty. I don't remember that - but what I do remember is how short she was. Maybe she used her temper to make up for her stature. What I remember most is a picture that she had hanging over her sofa in her home on Kensington Drive in Dayton, Ohio. It was a rather dark, gruesome picture of Gladiators and lions in a Roman arena. The picture always bothered me, I didn't like it, but couldn't help staring at it. On the brighter side, my grandmother always had cookies to share, and a friendly neighbor that would give me a bag full of nickel candy bars. Back then nickel candy bars were big and a real treat for a young girl.
