Pine, C. Henry (Charles Henry), 1845-1915

C. Henry (Charles Henry) Pine (1845-1915) was raised in Winsted, a town in Litchfield County, Conn. His parents were Samuel Winchester Pine and Ada Elnora Case. From 1862 until approximately 1864, he served as a drummer boy with the 19th Connecticut Infantry, which became the 2nd Connecticut Volunteer Heavy Artillery Regiment in November 1863. It is unclear when Pine completed his service, though it is known that the final remaining members of the original 19th Connecticut were mustered out in July 1865. Pine returned to Connecticut, marrying Imogene Amanda Downes in 1870. In later life, he was recognized as a philanthropist who contributed greatly to the construction of a soldier monument and memorial chapel in Ansonia, Conn.
