I found a Parthena Quimby in WIsconsin in the 1870 census at age 5, DOB circa 1864. Her parents were Horace and Maria. I don't know if you need her info or not. BUT, in order to find information, you have to provide all the clues that will help. You can't find the suspect without knowing the crime scene. So, if this is the right person, finding her later in life, may lead to info on him. She was living in Dupont, Wisconsin. So, if Charles served in the Civil War, his unit wasn't from Washington, it could have been Wisconsin. The 15th Wisconsin is a famous unit. There were 11 Charles Lindsey records in Civil War; 1 Charles M from 14th Illinois cavalry, 1 Charles M, Tennessee, Confederate. No Wisconsin. There is a series of books on the Civil War, the War of the Rebellion. It has a search engine "http://cdl.library.cornell.edu/moa/moa_browse.html" Charles Lindsey had 8 matches. I didn't check "Chas Lindsey". You might wish to explore on it. Also, if they were married in 1882 in Walla Walla, you might wish to do research on the Whitman Mission. Although the mission outdates the year of marriage, her family may have been involved from the earlier days.
