Hello, List, Maybe you can help. The Nyack Quilt now in the possesion of the Historical Society of the Nyacks is about to be exhibited (May 7). I am among a few who are trying to identify the 44 signers (all women) and the reason why they might have made this quilt in 1862. One theory is that it could have been made to raise funds to support local men who enlisted. Thirteen of the signers are Blauvelt and Haring women. In the "Civil War Soldiers and Sailors System" (CWSS; National Parks website), I have found 98 Blauvelt and Haring men who enlisted from New York and New Jersey. One of the most intriguing is Abram Pye Haring, who was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor in 1864 for his bravery at Bachelors Creek, NC, defending New Berne, NC. Unfortunately, although he is well documented in the CMOH records, the CWSS System does not have him. Does anyone know who this man is? He was born in New York, New York, on November 15, 1840. Died on February 22, 1915. Was married to Emma Hollet. He appears in the 1860 and 1870 Federal Censuses in the household of Kimball Dunham. Is buried in Canterbury Cemetery in Cornwall, NY. Any help in placing him into the Blauvelt and Haring families will be most appreciated. Thank you.
