Notes:

REESE GATLIFF PUGH FAMILY
MIGRATED FROM VIRGINIA TO IOWA 1866
WITH HIS BROTHER'S BODY AND HEADSTONE
Reese Gatliff Pugh was living in Petersburg, Monroe County, Virginia in 1860. He was a cabinet-maker and learned this trade from his father-in-law, William Tottington Rudd. [William Tottington Rudd and his family had survived the British invasion of Alexandria, Virginia during the War of 1812].
When the Civil War started in 1861, Reese G. Pugh enlisted in Captain Washington Lemons Company, 108th Regiment of the Virginia Militia- Confederate. Reese fought in the Battle of Lewisburg, Virginia on the 23rd of May 1862. It was a bloody battle with the remains of 95 unknown Confederate soldiers buried in the Old Confederate Cemetery in Lewisburg.
President Abraham Lincoln established West Virginia from Virginia in 1863 during the Civil War. The northern parts of West Virginia fought for the North but the southern parts including Monroe County supported the Confederate cause and resisted the change until the war ended in 1865. After the war, the state of West Virginia refused to let confederate's vote. There was a great deal of resentment on both sides.
Reese Pugh's younger brother, John T. Pugh, lived with Reese in Petersburg in 1860 and was also a cabinet-maker. John T. Pugh enlisted 6 August 1861 in Co. F, Virginia 22nd Infantry Regiment - Confederate. John Pugh was wounded, 26 August 1863 at the Battle of Dry Creek (White Sulphur Springs, "West" Virginia) and died a month later, 21 September 1863. It was also a bloody battle with 350 soldiers killed.
The Pugh family moved to Iowa sometime between August 1866, when Reese and Mary Ann Rudd Pugh's youngest child, Sarah Matilda Pugh, was born in Monroe Co., (West) Virginia and 7 November 1866, when their oldest daughter, Eliza Pugh (age 15), married James William Grady in Harrison Co., Iowa.
Reese's parents, David and Eliza Hutchison Pugh, and some of their younger children had already moved from Virginia to Harrison Co., Iowa in 1858. James Hutchison, Eliza's father and Reese's grandfather, had moved to Harris Grove, Harrison Co., Iowa in 1852.
After the Civil War, it appears that the Reese Pugh and William Grady families wanted out of the devastation of Virginia and traveled to Iowa together. James Grady's parents, William and Sarah Grady, and his sister, Victoria were all living in Logan, Jefferson Twp, Harrison Co., Iowa in 1870.
Reese Pugh, his wife, and family of eight children, plus the Grady family, probably traveled the 1,100 miles by wagon. There were railroads at that time but the cost, even then, would have been too much. Reese would have brought his cabinet making and wood working tools. Reese Pugh also brought his brother, John T. Pugh's body and headstone and re-buried him in the Harris Grove Cemetery, Harrison Co., Iowa. Reese would have built his brother's casket.
Reese Pugh's parent, David and Eliza, both died in the early 1860's before he moved to Iowa and are buried in the Linwood Cemetery.
In 1870, Reese Pugh's widow, Mary Ann Rudd Pugh, and their children were living in Logan, Jefferson Twp., Harrison Co., Iowa, near her brother, James William Rudd, who arrived in Iowa just before the census in 1870.
Reese Pugh died between 1866 and 1870. It is unknown where or when he died. He may be buried in an unmarked grave in Harris Grove Cemetery near his brother's, John T. Pugh and A. B. Pugh; in the Linwood Cemetery near his parents, David and Eliza Pugh and brother, Charles Pugh; or at the Logan Cemetery in Logan near where his widow, Mary Ann Rudd Pugh and their children lived.
If Reese Pugh died on the trip to Iowa, it would seem that his body would have been brought on to Iowa with his brother's body. Unless he is buried in an unmarked grave, there is a possibility that Reese's body was lost in a drowning, either on the trip or after they arrived in Iowa.
In 1894 Harrison Co., Iowa, a 5-generation photo was taken of William Tottington Rudd, age 85; Mary Ann Rudd Pugh, age 61 (Reese Gatliff Pugh's widow); Eliza Pugh Grady, age 43 (Reese's daughter); Sarah Anna Grady Crane, age 27; and Edna Crane, age 5. (This photo is posted on this ancestry.com site)
Mary Ann Rudd Pugh was living in Logan, Harrison Co., Iowa in the 1900 census. She was in Edmonds, Snohomish Co., Washington visiting her daughter, Florence Pugh Cameron, when she died in 1901. She is buried under a tree in the Edmonds Cemetery. A long way from Virginia and Iowa.
