Pvt. Roe gives a short bio:
Only a lad when the tide of war swept him into Company F, he came out of the strife a corporal, with
an excellent reputation for doing his duty and for a manly, upright life.
Feeling it his duty to preach, he prepared for college, and then went down to Middletown, Conn., where in Wesleyan University he pursued a four years' course, graduating in 1877.
Since that date, he has held a foremost place in the ranks of the New York East Conference of the Methodist church. At the end of a five years' stay as presiding elder of the New Haven district, he is now, 1899, enjoying a well-earned rest in a foreign trip, his wife, who was Miss Mary M. Evans of Auburn, accompanying him.
