Notes
a. Note:   e 176 OVI
 at age 14. (1863) The official roster of troops show a William M. West, age 18, joined the 176th OVI on
 Sept. 19, 1864 and mustered out on June 14, 1865 in Nashville, Tenn. We understand that he misinformed
 about his age when enlisting. The 176th may have been combined with the 129th.
  The license for his marriage to Ellen Blackwell dated Feb. 17, 1885 lists his age as 25. If he was born in
 1849, he would have been 35 or 36 years of age. We believe his year of birth to be 1849.
  We find William appearing in Iowa in 1870 Federal Census(Delaware County, Adams Twp.) page 10, with
 Elizabeth (Billings)West who he married on July 17, 1870. She died in 1883. We have a copy of their
 marriage certificate. They were married by J.A. Abott at the residence of Mrs. Robinson
  Information provided at time of death suggests that he was born in Marietta, Ohio which is in
 Washington County. Belmont/Washington County were split up which may account for the
 different sources of place of birth. He nor his parents appear in the 1850 Census for these counties
 nor Monroe county. A review of all WEST's in Ohio in 1850 did not reveal their presence.
 Enlistment record indicates he joined from Aurelius Twp, Washington County, Ohio
  A copy of the 1860 census has been requested on Feb 3, 2000
  Adams county clerk, vital statistics is 217-277-2150. address po box 1169, Quincy, Ill 62306
