There's an entry in the Civil war lists in my "History of Beaver county, PA', by Warner (1888): "Co. H, 9th PA Reserve, 38th Regiment, Recruited in Beaver county. Privates: Lytle, Robert S.,Aug. 26, '62; tranferred to 190th Reg. P.V. (PA Volunteers?) , May 3, '64. There are places on the net that you can perhaps get more info on the regiments. Try www.pa-roots.com I can't remember for sure its there, but informative anyways! Hope it helps.

Marilyn, Do you know where your Lytles lived over time? The reason I ask is that Lytle is a prominent name in the Cincinnati area from a General William Lytle who fought in the Civil War... We have the Lytle Tunnel (a short, curving tunnel on I-71), Lytle Park and One Lytle Place (office/residential tower). From the website on the park, there is some information on William Lytle: The 2.31 acre park, bounded by Fourth and Lawrence Streets, is the original site of the Lytle family homestead, built in 1809 by General William Henry Lytle. General Lytle was the first Surveyor General of the Northwestern Territory and the first Surveyor General of the State of Ohio. General William Haines Lytle, soldier-poet, who was born there on March 2, 1826, was killed in the Battle of Chickamauga during the Civil War. The land known as Lytle Square was purchased by the city in 1905. Captain Will Lytle's party of pioneers first encamped on the site of what would later become Fort Washington and Cincinnati. In 1780, his party fought the Indians for the prize of Cincinnati and six years later, Ludlow platted the site. Originally scheduled for demolishment as the connecting link of I-71 to Ft. Washington Way, the park was saved by public protest which resulted in the construction of the now-existing I-71 traffic tunnel over which the park now stands. The park was leveled in 1967 and later restored with new landscape designs. Lytle Park represents the first use of air-rights over an expressway in Ohio and one of the first in the nation. This website has a brief bio and information on his ancestors: http://www.wvu.edu/~lawfac/jelkins/lp-2001/lytle.html Also, there is a Markt Lytle, who is in the Indiana General Assembly, State Rep for the 69th District (Dem). Just a thought. Perhaps there is a connection to someone in this line of Lytles. If so, given that the family was so prominent, there may be a good bit of information available.
