We are looking for any info on John P Clevenger from Fulton Co. PA. His parents (we think) were Peter and Mary (Polly) Divel Clevenger. He served in the Civil War, first from PA and then in MD with cousins Harrison and Franklin. The cousins went back to PA after the war but John did not. This would have been in 1865. It was thought that John had died in the war but he apparently stayed in MD. In 1888 he married Sarah Katherine Mansfield and had six children - Queen Anne's County MD. Where was he all those years in between?? Did he marry and was widowed, have other kids or just work somewhere in MD for all of that time. Pls advise if you have any info on John P Clevenger born Fulton Co )Bedford) around 1845-46. Thanks

Do you know if John eventually ended up in Maryland. My grandfather's - father reportly was John and came from Pa after fighting under someone else's name, getting wounded and then ran away since he was drafter under his own name? Know that he died in 1905. Thanks.
The newest tool in genealogical research is th euse of male DNA to
establish origins and extend ancestral lines. A CLEVENGER Y-chromosoome DNA Surname
Project has been opened. The greater the number of participants, the greater
is the possibility of positive results. All male Clevengers (including
variant spellings) are urged to particpate.
So far just one Clevenger is in the project and DNA results are in for 12
(of 37) markers.
