Alexander Crawford, Jr., was born in Skowhegan, Me., educated in local schools, and worked on the family farm before enlisting in the 21st Maine Volunteers in 1862. He was seriously wounded at the Battle of Port Hudson, La., May 1863; after recouperating and serving his allotted months, he enlisted in the 31st Maine Regiment and fought in Grant's Overland Campaign of 1864. He was commissioned a lieutenant in June 1865 and became commanding officer of Company G, 31st Maine. He was mustered out in Aug. 1865 and returned home to the family farm hoping to marry his wartime penpal and sweetheart, Lucinda Fletcher, of New Sharon, Me. Upon returning home he discovered that his parents had become ill and sold the farm. He used his marriage money to repurchase the farm and married Lucinda in 1868.
