Reading a series of obituaries from a single cemetery, as they are presented here, is like reading the multi-generational history of a community. These people were the local populace at a particular time. The people buried here knew each other, were neighbors, relatives and school mates. They attended church together and engaged in "trade" or business.  All people are listed in alphabetic order by surname at BIRTH. Women identified by a married alias only and  for whom a birth surname can not be identified, are listed on the last page for the cemetery's obituaries.

Isaac CAMPBELL Dead
Another Veteran of the Civil War Passes Away
Isaac Campbell (SRGP 73124) departed this life on Thursday morning, June 24. For many years he and his family have had their residence here. He was an active useful citizen until a few years ago, when he was stricken with paralysis, which rendered him a confirmed cripple. He bore this affliction with great patience with great patience, and even cheerfulness of heart, as he had always his impaired physical condition caused by his war service. A member of the Universalist church for years, he was devoted to her interests, and his strong religious faith was to the last an unfailing source of comfort.
Born in Ulysses, N.Y., his earlier days were spent in near Trumansburg, that state. Upon attaining manhood, he became a sailor, and went on an extended sea voyage, a whaling expedition. On the appeal to arms, in the war of the rebellion, he first enlisted as a private in Co. F, 4th Regiment New York Cavalry, under Colonel Kilpatrick, and re-enlisted as a private in Co. E 18th New York Regiment, Veteran Reserve Corps, from which he was honorably discharged on July 7, 1865, making, in all, nearly four years of war service. He was brave soldier, and was many times wounded by bullet and saber. He was almost starved to death in Libby Prison, and at one time was taken up for dead, but fortunately, escaped burial. n our last soldier’s Memorial Day a carriage was kindly sent for him and he rode with other infirm veterans in the procession to the cemetery, and greatly enjoyed this last patriotic experience. he members of General Mansfield Post, G. A. R. attended in a body his funeral, which was held from the home, June 26. His pastor, the Rev. Emma E. Bailey, officiated, and Miss Dora Howe and Mrs. L. B. Shaw sang the deceased’s favorite hymns. The service at the grave in Oakwood Cemetery was taken by the Post, and was very fitting and beautiful. The deceased is survived by three married daughters, all living in Elmira, another daughter, Miss Ava Campbell, and two sons, John and Ernest, all of Mansfield.
