Warren Fernald
Corporal, Company G, from Kittery, age 21
<Received a disability discharge on 24 Jan, 1863>
<Received a disability discharge on 24 Jan, 1863>
WARREN FERNALD, born in Kittery, ME in Feb,1838,
probably the son of Capt. Simon Fernald and wife Joanna
F Williams. Simon was lost at sea in 1848, his widow
Joanna found in Kittery censuses with Warren living there
[among other ch in h.h. is Simon, who also served in the
27th ME]. Warren's name is on stone in Simon's plot, but
also has his own family spot in Orchard Grove, Kittery.
Warren died in 1914, a member of E.G.Parker Post
No.99, GAR.
Warren married circa 1865 [date not yet found] MARGARET A JENKINS, who was born in Kittery in 1841 [g.s., 1900 census has Jan,1842] and died in 1914.
Warren, while in the service of the 27th Maine, contracted typhoid fever and diptheria, and had to be discharged from the regiment. As he didn't file for a pension until 1896, it looks as if those diseases didn't handicap him after he returned home. He lived most of his life in Kittery (except for a brief stay in Waltham, MA in late 1890's to early 1900's where he was a blacksmith) and held many jobs at the Navy Yard, including watchman, shopkeeper, and 'running planer'.
