• Richard Dishman b. 1846 d. 1919 (35 KB)
  My great-great grandfather was Richard Dishman, the first child of Henry Dischmann and Frederica Jung of Germany -- he was the oldest of six children and a first generation American. According to his National Archives military records it appears he served in two different regiments in the Union Army in the Civil War. He had 8 children with his wife, Mary E. Walsh and lived in Red Hook, Brooklyn. (Picture from the files of Pat Tighe Sheridan--second cousin descended from Richard's first-born child Margaret. My line descended from Richard's 3rd son, Henry Francis Dishman.) --Nellie
