BENJAMIN DOLBIER
In Lewiston, Aug 22, Benjamin Dolbier, aged 69 years. Bringing suddenand keen sorrow came the news of our brothers death to his old home inKingfield. Only a fort night before he had left us, the perfect pictureof health, and the promise of many years of usefulness seemed written inevery lineament of his venerable face. But suddenly as came thesummons, it found him ready. The faith he had cherished for so manyyears, in the changeless goodness of God, enabled him to repeat the Psalmof trust: "Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, Iwill fear no evil, for thou art with me: thy rod and thy staff theycomfort me.? Bro. Dolbier was born in the town of New Portland, butnearly his entire life was spent in the town of Kingfield. Whencomparatively a young man his wife died, leaving him the double duty offather and mother to his orphaned children. So well was this taskperformed that today a family of five sons and two daughters with homesof their own, rise up and call him blessed. Always ready to help thosein sickness and trouble, there is hardly a family for miles around whichhas not known him as an angel of mercy in times of affliction. Thoughtwice married both wives preceded him to the heavenly home. The funeralservices were held in the union church, Kingfield, in the presence of alarge company of relatives and friends. May the sweet memories of fatherand brother cheer and comfort the mourning hearts.

ANCESTOR BIOGRAPHY
Ward S. DOLBIER
28th Maine Infantry
by Harry Dolbier
Nestled deep in the Maine woods, the village of Kingfield l
ay hundreds ofmiles away from any Civil War fighting. Yet during the course of theconflict the town sent 29 of its young men, one-eighth of its registeredvoters and volunteers all, to serve under the Stars and Stripes.
Ward Spooner Dolbier, just short of his twenty-first birthday, enlistedon September 10, 1862, as corporal in a new regiment of infantry beingformed to answer President Lincoln's call of August 4 for 300,000 men toserve nine months. Young Ward, a fourth-generation resident of Kingfieldand a blacksmith by trade, set out the 60 miles to Maine's capital,Augusta, where, along with 934 other young men from around the state hemustered into the 28th Maine Regiment of Volunteers, Colonel Ephraim W.Woodman, commanding.
Along with his uniform and equipment, Ward received a testament from theNew York Bible Society. The pages fail to display a great deal of wear.However, the corporal did find time to decorate its fly leaves withpencil sketches of bearded and kepied officers, flags, and a patrioticeagle.
The martial exploits of the 28th Maine nearly died a-borning when measlesswept through the troops gathered at Augusta, but the 28th reported nocases, so Maine Governor Washburn informed Secretary of War Stanton thathe believed it was safe to release the regiment for duty.
Ward's regiment was slated to join the defenses of Washington, but atJersey City Colonel Woodman was ordered to report with his troops to FortSchuyler in New York harbor, where the 28th would become part of MajorGeneral Nathaniel P. Banks' expedition to New Orleans. The regimentproceeded to garrison the post at Fort Schuyler, where it turned in itsold smoothbore muskets for new Enfield rifles. Then on November 26 thetroops marched to Brooklyn, where they spent the night billeted in HenryWard Beecher's Plymouth Church. The Maine men were so orderly that theneighbors never knew they were there until they marched away the nextmorning.
After a few weeks training and building barracks at East New York, the28th boarded the U.S. Steam Transport "Empire City" and sailed fromBrooklyn, January 17, 1863. Still far from the combat zone, Ward and hiscompanions now faced one of the most dangerous situations of theirwartime service. By 1862 the Union had nowhere near enough ships tomaintain the Southern blockade, fight the Confederate navy, carry oncommerce, and transport troops. The Government chartered 50 old vessels,leaking and under-manned, to carry Banks' troops to Louisiana. Onlythrough good fortune did this decrepit flotilla deliver its cargo alive.The 28th reached Fortress Monroe on January 22, then embarked on aneight-day voyage to New Orleans, encountering a severe gale on the way.
The regiment reached Louisiana on January 29, became part of GeneralThomas Sherman's Second Division of Banks' Nineteenth Corps, and encampedat General Andrew Jackson's old battleground at Chalmette. Soon orderscame through sending the regiment to Pensacola, Florida, 180 miles to theeast, where the Union forces holding the Warrenton Navy Yard anticipateda rebel attack. The transport "Che Kiang" sailed on February 15 anddelivered the Maine troops to the navy yard two days later. Ward'sCompany D and three other companies under Lieutenant Colonel William E.Hadlock were assigned picket duty at Fort Barrancas, near the navy yard.After the Confederates evacuated Pensacola, the 28th boarded thetransport "Eastern Queen" for a five-day voyage to New Orleans, arrivingMarch 29, 1863.
General Banks immediately ordered Colonel Woodman to station part of hiscommand at the newly constructed Fort Butler at Donaldsonville on thewest bank of the Mississippi about 60 miles from New Orleans and the restat Plaquemine, another 25 miles upstream.
Around this same time, Ward got some good news: Captain Orrin Thomas,commander of Company D, had taken note of Ward's soldierly bearing andattention to duty, and approved his April 1 promotion to sergeant.
Based at Fort Butler, Ward and his companions went to work manning thepost, guarding the telegraph lines, and intercepting contraband. Moralewas a problem. The duty?tiring, tedious, and dangerous?was made worse bythe terrain and the climate. This was bayou country?huge magnolia andlive oak trees, thick, jungle-like vegetation, and swampy ground all mademovement and visibility hard for the Union forces. There were more bugsand snakes than many of the Northern soldiers were used to, or cared for.Making matters worse, soldiers who had enlisted for nine-month terms wereoften looked down upon by those serving for longer periods, who believed(not without some evidence) that many of the nine-month men were bothlazy and cowardly.
Confederate General Dick Taylor's raiders operating from Arkansasconstantly harassed the Union forces in Louisiana, and the 28th Mainebore its share. Captain Stanley, Sergeant Wilder, and eleven men werecaptured on April 18. Lieutenant Witham was severely wounded. ThenSergeant Dolbier got in the way of a rebel ball?shot in the right foot.
In the hospital at Baton Rouge Ward must have had some grim thoughts ashe recalled the results of Civil War surgery he had seen. He wasfortunate that his wound was in an extremity?the further the injury fromthe center of the body in those days, the better the chances of recovery.Even more encouraging was the surgeon's decision that he would not needto amputate. Ward spent nearly two months in the hospital while CompanyD and other units of the 28th were sent to join in the assaults and siegeof Port Hudson, the last Confederate stronghold on the Mississippi River.The gunshot wound healed nicely, and Ward was released from the hospitalin time to rejoin the regiment as the siege was drawing to its successfulclose.
On July 4 the companies at Port Hudson rushed to reinforce their besiegedcomrades in Fort Butler at Donaldsonville, and once that threat hadpassed, the regiment embarked for Baton Rouge to man the post there.Then, their nine-month term of enlistment nearing its end, the men of the28th boarded the steamboat "Continental" for Cairo, Illinois. ColonelWoodman described the trip home: "From Cairo the Reg't came by carsthrough Terre Haute, Buffalo, Albany, and arrived at Augusta, August18th," he wrote. "I would particularly mention the hearty welcomeextended the Reg't on its return by the patriotic citizens of Augusta,the goal to which we returned after having passed around nearly the wholeextent of the so-called Confederacy." The 28th Maine Regiment ofVolunteers was mustered out of the service of the United States on August31, 1863.
Ex-Sergeant Dolbier returned to the forge in Kingfield and in 1867married Lucinda Page Vose. Two years later their son Francis was born.In 1875, Ward caused a hullabaloo in the family when he announced he wastaking his wife and son and moving to California. No Dolbier withinliving memory had seen any reason to leave Kingfield, but Ward's mind wasmade up. Perhaps the three thousand mile train trip to the Pacificslope, shepherding a six-year old boy, made Ward recall with fondness theswamps, the snakes, and the bullets of Louisiana.
After several years working as a machinist in the lumber mills ofMendocino County, Ward settled in Oakland, California, where he opened abicycle shop. Ward S. Dolbier was an active member of the Grand Army ofthe Republic for many years, marching in parades and enjoying the group'sother activities almost until the end, which came peacefully on August27, 1927. His remains lie in the Chapel of the Chimes in Oakland.

Marsha Eldredge, February 15, 1994:
"My grandfather, Edgar Bryant Dolbier, came to Newton, Mas
sachusettsaround 1890. The Stanley brothers, also from Kingfield, had opened a dryplate plant (photography) there. That's a long story in itself. Edgar'sbrother, Nathan B., also brought his family down to Newton for the samereason. They settled in and Edgar married Adelaide McCammon. They hadseven children, six boys and one daughter. Out of the seven, five hadchildren, eight girls and three boys.
"All of my uncles and aunt stayed right in the greater Boston area and wewere a close family. Now my cousins are scattered. With the exceptionof two, most are still here in New England. It was my uncle's and aunt'sstories about Kingfield and verbal histories of ancestors that promptedthis whole search."

Hiram Bills Family Research of Beatrice (Mary Van Allen) Bills
Hiram has been only briefly mentioned in our family memoirs so far. He was not notorious nor a combat veteran. Instead, Hiram is felt strongly in the background watching as a guardian over the affairs of his family members. He strikes us as being one of few, but meaningful words.
Hiram was one of the youngest children of Samuel Bills (1777-1840). He was born between 1824 and 1828 in the state of New York. (The 1870 Federal Census, Nankin Township, Michigan, states he was 45 years old 1824/1825) and his death certificate in 1872 shows age 44 (1827/1828).) We don't know the accurate identity of his mother at his time, except that an "Annie" is listed on his death certificate. His older brothers were (Ira (1809-1895), Alvah (1812-1900) and William (1819-1900). Other brothers were Albert and Samuel, and possible brothers (or uncles) Syman of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and Marvin of Grand Rapids. He had two sisters--Sally, of Branch County, and Eunice of Milwaukee. (Samuel Bill Will, Wayne County Probate Records, Volume 3, Record 2190)
Hiram married Sabrina sometime before1860. (Wayne County Land Records, Volume 36, P. 15) Again, we do not know much about his marriage, except that in 1860 he had a daughter named Hannah J. Who was five years old. Not listed is Hiram Bills who is buried in Maplegrove Cemetery in Nankin Township. This Hiram died at age 19 in April, 1873, and could have been a son.
Hiram, as his brother Ira, was also a land buyer. Before 1848, he had over 65 acres of land in what is not Nankin Township. He purchased some from his brother William in 1844, and 65 acres in 1848 from a Nehimiah F. Prudden.(Wayne County Land Records,and Volume 14, P. 19, and Vol 18, p. 21) He had a small estate.
Just before his death in Nankin on Aril 9, 1872, at age 44, Hiram was worth $3,300 in real estate and $850 in personal estate.(1870 Federal Census, Nankin Township, Wayne Co., Michigan) He was pretty well off for a person in the period. He died a young man; it seems too bad, particularly for some family members such as Ira and his son, Edmond. They relied on Hiram for stability. It was he to whom Marshall and Edmond gave their bounties for enlistment for use for nursing services for their sick father. They could trust Uncle Hiram to take good care of their father.
Another testimony to Hiram's respectability was his witness as best man to the marriage of Francis L. Strong and Laura E. Guest of Nankin on July 1, 1869. They were not relatives, but friends and neighbors who respected him enough to ask him to perform this favor for them.
We close this brief study of Hiram hoping that we car learn more about him in time. He was probably very quiet but steady. His land transactions and personal wealth impress us. We will break the silence of this man soon, we hope."
