    Notes:

    Biography:
    All his brothers and sisters were listed in the 1850 census. He was not but there was a Lynford Kresge living nearby in Hamilton Township that was 21 years old and a Laborer. He was living in a house with several people of different last names. The was probably the same Linford Kresge who had moved out of his home and moved into a boarding house. On September 28, 1863 he was drafted into three years service for the Civil War. At that time he was described as being 34 years of age, 5' 5", complexions dark, eyes gray, hair sandy, born in PA, and a farmer. On October 30, he reported for duty and was given a furlough for ten days so he could raise $300. $300 was the standard amount to buy your way out of service. He never returned and was arrested in his home town October 19, 1864. His Civil War records give no reason why he deserted, however, his fourth child, Ezra, was born between the time he was drafted and when he reported. His other three children were 8, 5, and 2. He was Court Martialed in Philadelphia, found guilty, and sentenced to one year hard labor with a loss of all pay. After the sentence he was to serve his three year term at the front. On January 5, 1865 he started his sentence at Ft Whipple, VA and was assigned to build up the fortifications of Washington. Between February 16 and June 15, 1865 he was at Fort Delaware. He and 26 other prisoners signed a petition for a pardon and sent it to President Lincoln. In return for the pardon they said they would serve at the front. President Lincoln is known to have had a soft spot for pardoning deserters and according to Linford "he pardoned us but in the mean time he was shot and died. President Johnson sent for me and I went to Washington and he gave me my discharge." His sentence was remitted on June 10 by General Order 294 of the War Department and went to Washington on June 16. Lee surrendered Linford was mustered out with an honorable discharge on July 6, 1865. In 1884 he got a hernia from lifting heavy logs and in 1889 he was working on building public roads and was not always able to work because he had back problems (lumbago). He also complained of Rheumatism in his arms and legs. Based on a 1890 pension law for Civil War veterans he applied for a pension several times from 1890 through 1906 but was denied each time because he had not served the minimum 90 days. In 1905 he was living at 515 Allen St, Allentown, PA.

    Notes:

    Biography:
    He was a farmer and a carpenter. He built the family home at 615 Walnut St in Freeland. It was a very large double three story building and was owned by Miles Bressler. When he died it was willed to Florence. The Kresge farm was located near McMichaels, a small village near Gilbert, Brodheadsville, and Kresgeville in Monroe County. It was probobly origonally owned by Frederich (his name is listed as Ferdinand in "Decendants of Conrad Kresge"), Ezra's brother. It was later run by John (Frederich's son) and his wife Pearl. The family used to visit the farm in Florence's 1928 Nash, a large, expensive car in those days. Arlene drove (Arlene and Marian were the only ones who ever had a license). The drive from Freeland took about one hour and was seldom completed without getting a flat tire (tires were undependable in those days which is why two spares were carried, one on each running board near the engine). The Nash barely made it up Effort Mountain in second gear with a full load (Arlene, Ezra, Alice, Florence, Mary Miles Bressler, and Robert Unangst).

    Ezra married Mary Alice Brong about 1889. Mary (daughter of Elias Brong and Margaret Motz) was born in Mar 1872 in Pennsylvania; died in 1959 in Pennsylvania. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
