Second Lieutenant Patrick Ingoldsby |

Home / Ninth Regiment Roster / Gravesites / Solders Born Outside of US | Soldiers: |
“Patrick Ingoldsby was my great great grandfather's brother. He was born in Ireland. Later generations were born in County Leitrim, but I can find no record of this generation there. In Ireland the family name was Gallogly. For some reason all the family members that settled in New Haven used the English equivalent Ingoldsby. In 1860-61 there there were 7 Ingoldsbys listed in the New Haven City Diretory. Patrick died of phthisis (tuberculosis) in New Haven July 3, 1884 (New Haven Vital Records Vol. 27, Page 190). He was married to Margaret Sullivan who was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Together they had 11 children.” The above information was provided by Joanne Ingoldsby Peters. Information taken from Murray’s History shows that Patrick Ingoldsby enlisted Sep 11, 1861 at what is now Bayview Park in New Haven, the site of the regiment's monument dedicated in 1903. His record shows his "residence" as New Haven. He was mustered in on Sep 27 (still at Bayview Park - City Point) as a Cpl. He was promoted to Sgt. on April 10, 1862 and made 1st Sgt. on July 1, 1862. He was later promoted to 2D Lt. on May 27, 1863.
