Benjamin died when he was 46 and Lovisa died when she was 71. As a young man Charles was a harness maker and for many years operated a shop near 307 W. Main Street, Brighton, Michigan. Charles enlisted March 17, 1865 in Co. F, 11th Michigan Cavalry as a Private. He was only 18 years old. The 11th Michigan was in Knoxville, Tennessee by March, 1865. The troops moved from east Tennessee to southwest Virginia and western North Carolina by April 17, 1865. The final move was to Pulaski, Tennessee and by July 20, 1865 the 11th consolidated with the 8″ Michigan Cavalry. He mustered out of Co. H, 8th Michigan Cavalry September 22, 1865 and returned home to Brighton and his mother. He applied for his pension October 17, 1887. He married Sarah Ellen (Case). After the war they owned an 80 acre farm in Green Oak Township where they built their home on the west side of Ann Arbor Road (Whitmore Lake Road) about ¾ miles south of Maltby Road. They had two sons. C. Leland died when he was less than a year old. Another son George died when he was three. They had also had one daughter Carrie. Charles was the treasurer of the Brighton Gun Club when it was organized in 1877. He was a member of the Brighton Fire Department and served as a Village trustee in 1877. There are ten others by the name of Cushing buried in the cemetery. Charles died a widower of a valular disease of the heart. By 1980, there was not a single descendant of the Cushings living in the Brighton area. FindAGrave Memorial: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/52148588/charles-e-cushing | |

| Hayner, Josiah Cyrus | 7 Jun 1824 | 11 Jul 1878 | Block 3, Plot 1, Row 9 Josiah Hayner was born to parents George and Mary (Keller). At age 37, on August 16, 1861 he enlisted in Fowlerville’s Co. K, 9th Michigan Infantry as 1st sergeant. He held that rank until Co. K was captured by General Nathan Forrest at the Battle of Murfreesboro, Tennessee. He was paroled and sent to Camp Chase, Ohio July 13, 1862. He returned to his regiment at Murfreesboro, Tennessee March 23, 1863. Hayner was transferred to Invalid Corp (Veterans Reserve Corps) April 10, 1864. He mustered out February 10, 1865. Hayner married Maria (or Mariah) Bigham in Ypsilanti, July 3, 1851. Some records show that they had three children: Mary, Clara and Charles. The 1880 census showed he had eight children Eugene (1853), Celia (1855), Clarence (1858), Mary (1860), Irene (1865), William (1869), Robert (1873), and Kate (1874). By 1870, the census recorded that Josiah Hayner was a teamster. No value was listed for his real estate but $400 was listed as the value of his personal property. He filed for a pension in June 1876. His widow filed for a widow’s pension April 1886 and a minor child filed May 1888. FindAGrave Memorial: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/52148680/josiah-cyrus-hayner | |

| Hogan, Pvt Benjamin | 1844 | 1900 | Civil War Veteran. Block 2, Plot 18, Row 8 There is some conflicting information as to Benjamin Hogan’s place of birth. Some sources have him born in New York State and others have him born in Ireland. With his mother he left Cork, Ireland and arrived in New York State on June 2, 1851. He was eight years old. The ship they took to come to New York State was the Hebe. On April 20, 1863 in Albany, New York, Benjamin enlisted in Co. C, 3rd New York Infantry. He was 19 years old. He was discharged and mustered out May 21, 1863 at Albany. His term of service had expired. Private Hogan was paid by the state of New York from April 20 to May 14, 1863. He received $8.64. By the 1880 census we find Benjamin living in Saginaw. It is recorded that he was a clerk after the war. Records showed he married Elizabeth. We do not know if they had any children. The Hogan headstone is made of cast zinc. There is only one other cast zinc headstone in the cemetery. FindAGrave Memorial: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/20824117/benjamin-hogan | |

His parents were John and Mercy (Carr). He had three brothers and two sisters. There are no records to show where in Illinois John was living before he volunteered to serve in the Civil War. John enlisted in the 8th Illinois Infantry June 9, 1861 and mustered out August 26, 1861. He enlisted in Co. A, 8th Illinois Cavalry on December 13, 1863. Private Hutchings mustered out July 17, 1865 at Benton Barracks, St. Louis, Missouri. A disability occurred when he received a skull fracture after falling off his horse. He returned home to China, Illinois. The first date that places him in Brighton is 1879 when he was a street commissioner of the Village. In 1870 he married Sarah. She was 16. They had one daughter Mabel who was born in 1879 and one son Arthur (b 1881). John and Sarah lived in a home on the south side of North Street (the location of the present Masonic Lodge). Census reports show he was a carpenter and day laborer in Brighton. He was 67. He was a post commander of the Brighton GAR Post #179. Private Hutchings filed for an invalid pension May 1881. He died in Brighton in 1902 of an unknown illness. His widow filed for a widow’s pension August 1902. A bit of local history: Bert Bair’s mother took care of Sarah when she was in her old age.

| Prosser, John Sylvan | 14 May 1843 | 13 May 1864 | Civil War Veteran. This might be a memorial stone (cenotaph). It is recorded in several sources that he was buried in an unmarked grave on the Spotsylvania battlefield. Local newspaper articles reported that he was reburied in Old Village Cemetery. John was born to Charles and Elmina (Norton). Members of the Prosser family owned a paint supply business in Brighton circa 1910-1920’s. John Prosser’s memorial stone is next to his parents, sister, and aunt in a family plot. His siblings were Elizabeth, Jacob, William, Charles, Frank, and Harriet. John enlisted in Co. K, 20″ Michigan Infantry on August 8, 1862 in Chelsea, Michigan. Even though he enlisted in August, the regiment didn’t report to its Division until September 23. It was delayed because there were so many tents and equipment on the roads the regiment couldn’t move. It finally met up with the army at Antietam, Maryland. The battles of the 20th were Vicksburg, E. Tennessee Campaign, and Virginia Campaign. During this entire term of service, this regiment was always at the front, never stationed at a fort, never on duty. It was always on the fighting line. Private Prosser was mustered out May 13, 1864 because he did not survive the war. He was mortally wounded on May 13, 1864 at Spotsylvania Court House, Virginia. He died one day before his 20″ birthday. FindAGrave Memorial: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/213851365/john-sylvan-prosser | |
