In the 2nd Michigan Cavalry I have Ashley and Orville Carlisle in Co L. I believe that if
they were related to Martin it would have been very distantly.
At
FamilySearch.org in Michigan Marriages 1822-1995 I found Martin V Carlisle, age 24,
married on 22 Sep 1861 Lorenca Smith, age 18, at Kent, Michigan. So he married just days
after he enlisted.
Ancestry.com has free access to Civil War databases right now and there I found a pension
index card for Carlisle, Martin V and Loranca Carlisle, widow. Martin applied for a
disability pension 5 June 1863, application # 24871. Loranca applied for a widow's
pension 12 May 186?? - the year is very hard to make out but I think it is 1864,
application # 51.674. The pension file should list date of death, any children and provide
further information.
