John Steina1

Parents

Key Events

EventDateAgeDescription
BirthAbt 1840~0John Steina was born abt 1840 in Bedford County, Virginia.1
Marriage18 Jun 1863~23He married Mary Ann Campbell, daughter of David S. Campbell and Eliza Anne Mays, on 18 Jun 1863 in Amherst County, Virginia, This marriage appears in the register but may never have taken place as no minister's name was recorded. Mary Ann Campbell was listed as single with the surname Campbell when she married William Ashley in 1867. A John Steina appears in a list of POWs that were captured on 2 Jul 1863 at Gettysburg, PA and he subsequently died on 30 Jul 1863. He was listed as being a private in Company B of the 4th Louisiana Regiment. If this is the same John Steina then perhaps this was a last minute marriage before he went off to war and Mary Ann's parents suppressed this fact when she married the second time.1,2,3
Death30 Jul 1863~23He died possibly of wounds received in battle on 30 Jul 1863 in Gettysburg, Adams County, Pennsylvania.2
