Anson was 18 years old when he enlisted in October of 1861 and served for the duration of the war, not mustering out until September of 1865. Anson's brother Horace served in Co S of the 17th MI as chaplain. Post-war, Anson and his wife Nettie headed west sometime after 1874 to the Dakota Territory. She died and he remarried a woman named Mary. He died sometime after 1910. He was last foundin the 1910 census in the Stae of Minnesota in Hennepin County.

Need confirmation, but believe he was in the 9th Regiment as a Private in Company I. He was married to #1 Eunice Thomas, #2 Abigail Nale, #3 Elizabeth Voagner (Wagner). Conflicting reports indicate he MAY have been a 'Corporal in Company J, 9th Regiment, Michigan Infantry, enlisted 7 March 1865, discharged 26 September 1865, 6 mo, 19 days'.

William Esley Surine was 18 years old when he enlisted at Antrim, Shiawassee, Michigan on 24 Sep 1861. He was apparently wounded in the Civil War sometime in early 1863 and he applied for a pension in 7 Aug 1863 and was turned down.
