| William S. Ingalls was the son of Aaron K. Ingalls; Aaron K. Ingalls was the brother of Benjamin Ingalls, Sarah Marie Ingalls' father. Thus, William S. and Sarah Marie were cousins. William S. Ingalls was a Civil War veteran, for whom, according to family anecdote, Sarah received a pension of $8 a month. Civil War pension records, however, indicate William S. Ingalls was being paid $17 a month at the time of his death and Sarah Marie Ingalls was receiving $30 a month at the time of her death. The index of Civil War veterans shows William S. Ingalls of Company E, 7th Minnesota Infantry applying for a pension on 2/11/1880 and his widow, Sarah M. Ingalls, applying for survivor benefits on 8/29/1897. Sarah Marie Ingalls' death certificate, from Alameda County, CA lists her spouse as "the late William S. Ingalls." William Ingalls was purported to have been a U.S. Marshal in Nevada in the latter part of the Nineteenth Century. Research suggests that this was not true, however. Civil War pension records indicate William S. Ingalls was so sick with rheumatism and hemmoriods after the war that he had a great deal of difficulty working. Perhaps most convincing, however, is the fact that, according to the 1900 census for Hawthorne Township, Esmeralda County, Nevada, a William A. Ingalls was the sheriff there at that time. This is no apparent relation to our family, yet could have been the source of the family anecdote. In any case, William S. Ingalls' name does not appear in the federal records of U.S. Marshals for that time period, as researched by Paul and Matthew Ingalls at the National Archives. It is possible that he was a deputy U.S. Marshal, which would not have showed up in the archival records. Family anecdote has it that two pistols that came down in our family through Chauncey Ingalls were owned by William S. Ingalls. One was supposedly confiscated from an outlaw and the other was William's weapon. This is certainly inaccurate, however, since research indicates the .38 cal. Colt Lightening purportedly owned by William was manufactured in 1903, six years after his death. The .44-40 cal. Colt Frontier Six-Shooter supposedly confiscated by William was manufactured in 1881, however, and may have been his handgun. Civil War military records show that William S. Ingalls was mustered into Co. E, 7th Minnesota Infantry as a private on Aug. 15, 1862 at Ft. Snelling, Minn., having enlisted in Carimona, Minn. He was present with the company through December, 1863, then reported ill and absent from the company in January and February 1864. In March and April, 1864 he was reported "on detached service to Vicksburg, Miss." In May and June 1864 he was once again reported present with his regiment. From July 1864 through April 9, 1865 he was reported ill at Overton U.S. Hospital in Memphis, Tenn. He returned to duty on April 10, 1865 and mustered out on Aug. 16, 1865. | ||
| Sarah Jane Deily (female) | ||
| Birth | 22 Feb 1848 | Illinois |
| Ingalls family Bible owned by Alida Craighead of Sacramento, CA indicates Sarah Jane Deily was the first wife of William S. Ingalls, and that she was born on 22 Feb. 1848 and died in Minnesota on 24 Oct. 1887. The 1870 census for Mower County, LeRoy Township, MN shows Sarah Ingalls, age 23, living with husband William S. Ingalls and two children, Charles and William. These two children, with consistent ages, also appear in the family Bible. The 1880 census from Spring Valley, Fillmore County, MN has William S. Ingalls living with Sarah J. Ingalls and their four children, all with consistent names and ages. Also living in the household at that time was Sarah's sister, Matilda Deily, age 34 (making her birthdate abt. 1846) | ||
