D and it seems that a number of men in the company were Northerners.

I searched the 1860 census for Jefferson County for Aug Johnson (he was supposedly from Steubenville) but can’t find him in Steubenville or anywhere in the county. I searched for him (under both Johnson and Johnston) in the surrounding counties of Belmont, Harrison and Carroll as well as Brooke (West) Virginia and didn’t find anything. It would be interesting to try and find this story in the paper it was originally reported in, the Washington Star, I believe. Perhaps the Chronicle put him from Steubenville to give the story some local flavor?

I wonder what their status was after 1863, since the history of service ends for both in that year.
