1 Civil War Soldiers Buried in Portland s St. Mary s Cemetery Martin Riley Martin Riley, widower of the deceased Ellen Maria Hurley, died from heart disease on 26 January 1921 in Portland, Oregon. He was buried from St. Mary s Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception.1 He was born in Ireland, son of James Riley and Mary McGraw.2 Riley was buried in Portland s St Mary s Cemetery. The cemetery closed in 1930, and the Archdiocese sent letters to lot owners advising them of the cemetery s closure and offering space in Mount Calvary. Announcements were also published in newspapers. Between 1930 and 1937, people stepped up and made the arrangements to transfer family burials. In 1937 the Archdiocese contracted with a professional crew to carefully excavate the cemetery, and the remains and tombstones were transferred to Mount Calvary s St. Mary s section. No one claimed Martin Riley. Ellen Riley ( ) and Mathew Riley ( ) were removed from St. Mary s Cemetery and placed in the St. Mary s section of Mount Calvary Cemetery.3 Riley s soldier stone was moved with them.

2 Civil War Service, Private, Co. G, 14 th New Hampshire Infantry Spencer Leonard ( ) was a member of the Sons of the Union Veterans of the Civil War. He created a tribute to Civil War veterans who lived in Oregon, both the veterans who served from Oregon and those who served from other states. The end product was a card file at the Genealogical Forum of Oregon in Portland with data on more than 15,000 veterans. Martin Riley s card in the Spencer Leonard collection provides his military service and death date. It also indicates he was a member of Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) Post No. 1. Martin Riley, a 23-year-old resident of Keene, New Hampshire, enlisted in Company G, New Hampshire 14 th Infantry, on 23 September 1862 and was mustered out on 8 June A Michael Riley, also from Keene, enlisted and served the same time as Martin. Fourteenth Regiment Historical Notes: This regiment, mostly from the south- western part of the state, was mustered in for three years at Concord in Sept. and Oct., It was mustered out July 8, 1865, at Savannah, Ga. The original members numbered 968, transferred 1, recruits 417, total strength 1,386. It lost 66 of its number, who were killed or died of wounds and 159 from other causes. The 14th was the last three years' regiment furnished by the state, many of its men having expected to join other regiments. It left the state for Washington on Oct. 18, 1862, arrived there two days later and was assigned to defense duty. It remained near Washington, performing varied services until in Feb.1864, when it was ordered to the upper Potomac and was encamped for a short time near Harper's Ferry. The men went home to vote and in March the regiment was ordered to Hilton Head, S. C, which was reached after terrible storms. From April to July, 1864, it was in or near New Orleans, then returned to Washington, and soon entered into active field service. It was in the fights at Deep Bottom, Winchester, Halltown, Berryville, Lock's ford, Fisher's hill, Tom's brook, Strasburg and Cedar creek, and all proved the valor of the 14th. The late winter and spring were spent in Savannah, Ga., and in May, 1865, the regiment was ordered to Augusta. So much southern service was disastrous to the health of the troops and they lost heavily through sickness. 5 Revised Register of the Soldiers and Sailors of New Hampshire in the War of the Rebellion, , digital images, entry for Martin Riley and Michael Riley, Ancestry.com ( : accessed 28 January 2013).

4 The regiment also saw picket and provost duty; they were the police force that kept order. It is possible that one of them guarded these Confederate soldiers who were captured at Fisher s Hill. 8 In Washington, the regiment furnished guards for the Old Capitol Prison and Central Guard house and for other posts in the city. One group was put on duty at the steamboat landing where they watched for contraband trade and arrested unauthorized travellers. 9 In Winchester, they provided provost duty for the town. 10 At the end of the war, they guarded Jefferson Davis and other rebel soldiers that were taken with him. 11 One New Hampshire soldier wrote home about what he saw in Savannah.
