    • Daniel B. Magruder and Mary Dyer were married by a man named Silas Burns, who may have been a relative of Daniel's mother, Margaret Porter. Daniel Magruder served in the United States Army during the Civil War. He first enlisted on 1 October 1861, in Company L, Sixth (West) Virginia Infantry, and was discharged on 17 September 1862. On that same day, he enlisted in Company I, 15th Regiment, West Virginia Volunteer Infantry, and was mustered into service on 11 October 1862. He was discharged as a First Lieutenant on 6 April 1864. Mary is listed as a widow in the 1890 Census of Pensioners. In "The History of the Pan-handle: being historical collections of Ohio, Brooke, Marshall, and Hancock, West Virginia" (by J. H. Newton, published by J.A. Caldwell, Wheeling, West Viginia, 1879) is the following: "Daniel B. Magruder was born in Allegany County, Maryland, in 1826. He came to Ohio County, West Virginia, in 1839, worked in an iron mill five years, then engaged in the stone and lime business. He afterwards kept a saloon in Wheeling, two years, then removed to Indiana, where he followed the occupation of a farmer, but now resides at Elm Grove, West Virginia, and is engaged in mining. Our subject married Mary C. Dyer, of New Jersey, in 1854. They are the parents of three children - William H., Ellaretta, and Charles W."
