Clarion County in the Mexican War

Transcribed from A. J. Davis' History of Clarion County, Pennsylvania (pub. 1887)

The Mexican war excited little interest and less enthusiasm in Clarion county.  T. S. McCalmont, then a lawyer of Clarion, who was a West Point graduate, attempted to raise a company, but failed.  Colonel Joseph W. Coulter obtained about fifteen signers to a volunteer paper; not sufficient to effect an organization.

The following are all I have been able to discover who went to the Mexican war from Clarion county:  Joseph Shaw, of Clarion; James Mooney, of Strattanville, now of Clarion; ________ Rodebaugh, a boy drummer, of Monroe township; ________ Burns, near Curllsville.
