      "The Saga of the Deal Family of Morgan County, Indiana 1860-1865"

      William and Susannah Yount Deal moved their young family to Indiana from North Carolina in the late 1820's or early 1830's. Their first two sons, Frederick and Silas Philo, were born in North Carolina. Sons Andrew Marcus and Daniel were born in Indiana. The family may have lived in Ray Township, Morgan County, Indiana. Early settlers sometimes put up a cabin and "squatted" on land some years before entering their tract. William entered land in Ray Township on September 12, 1835 and November 26, 1836.

      In the mid-1850's, the Deal family moved to Denton County, Texas, near Clear Creek. At the start of the Civil War, they determined to move north, as Texas was sympathetic to the Confederate States of America. William and Susannah were among many Union loyalists who fled Texas at the beginning of the war. They went to Humboldt, Allen County, Kansas, because they could get inexpensive farm land in a new state where slavery was unpopular.

      The Deals discovered that Kansas was suffering from instability and conflict. . . . Intense land speculation was followed by an economic crash and a severe drought. Border wars began around 1855 with Missourians who wanted Kansas to become a pro-slavery state. Southwestern Missouri was settled by Southerners, who developed large plantations which were only profitable with slave labor. Slavery had flourished in Missouri for 40 years, and owners feared their slaves would flee across the border if Kansas became a "free state." Bands of Missourians terrorized eastern Kansas, until the state became known as "Bleeding Kansas." This issue was resolved when the number of freestaters who came to Kansas greatly outnumbered the pro-slavery voters. . . .

      Daniel Deal enlisted, at age 28, in Company D, 70th Indiana Volunteer Infantry on 24 July 1862. He attained the rank of First Duty Sergeant and was the Color Bearer for the 70th.

      Sgt. Deal had 3 brothers who also served the Union in the War Between the States: Silas Philo Deal, Company B, 30th Indiana Volunteer Regiment; Andrew Marcus Deal and Martin Van Buren Deal, both of Company E, 9th Kansas Volunteer Regiment. Daniel and Silas survived the war, Andrew and Martin did not. . . ."
