Hi Cindy, John didn't come up in the Ancestry pension files. He is listed in the "American Civil War Soliers" with this info: John Sharkey, enlisted as private on 24 Aug 1861 at age 20; Distinguished Service, Union, for OH, unit numbers 1698 (I have no idea what this unit # means); Enlisted in Co K, 2nd Cavalry Regiment on 10 Oct, 1861, mustered out 11 Sept 1865 Cavalry. Then under "Civil War Service Records"; John Sharky, 2 OH Cavalry, Private in, Private out, Notes: John Sharkey, Union (Means he was also known with this spelling). Hope this helps.
