Pvt. Isaac Allaman, USA

The son of Jacob & Elenora (Boyd) Allaman, in 1850 he was living with his family in South Annville Township, Lebanon County, Pennsylvania, but is not found with certainty in the 1860 census.

A Civil War veteran, he enlisted in Hummelstown, Dauphin County, July 28, 1862, mustered into federal service at Harrisburg August 9 as a private with Co. C, 127th Pennsylvania Infantry, and honorably discharged with his company May 29, 1863. He is the company register as "Alleman."

He married Mary Spitler December 10, 1865, and fathered Adam (b. 02/05/70), Samuel F. (b. 08/15/74), and John Henry (b. 10/03/81). Cause of his death is listed as "a long standing case of mitral insufficiency terminating in heart block & death." All of his obituaries spell his surname "Alleman." So, too, did his death certificate until someone overwrote the "e" with an "a."
