Any information on battles of this unit would be appreciated. I believe that they were captured at Falling Waters and held hostage. Any information regarding Thomas would be appreciated as well.

Thomas Cowhey's name was spelled Cowhy in War Department records regarding his service in Company I-16. It is also sometimes spelled Cowy or Cowey, but I believe Cowhey is correct.

Thomas served a three-month tour from April 26 to July 30, 1861 with the Pennsylvania Infantry Company I-16 (along with his brother William Cowhey).

I am looking for more information about Company I-16. If you have any knowledge about it please contact me.

He also served in Pennsylvania Regiment L-5 from January 30, 1862 to January 30, 1865. If you have any knowledge about either please contact me.
