With the onset of the Civil War, Sylvester Mohn, who married Rebecca Tombler, enlisted and served two tours of duty with the Second Pennsylvania Cavalry. He was wounded in the shoulder by shell shrapnel at the battle of Deep Bottom (in Virginia) and died in 1864 at a field hospital in Annapolis, MD. He was buried in Belfast Union Cemetery. Charles Mohn similarly enlisted and served with the Second Pennsylvania Cavalry, and he married Louisa Moyer. Henry S. Mohn, who also enlisted and served with the Second Pennsylvania Cavalry in the Civil War, married Anna Caroline Smith. John J.
