In 1860, Wallace was living in Warren, Washington Co., VT. He was single, working as a carpenter. He served in the Civil War, joining up on 1 Sep 1864 in Malone, NY. He was hospitalized on 28 Dec 1864. It appears that he had a further period of active service and then was sent to the Soldiers' Insane Asylum in Washington, DC on 14 Mar 1865. By 1870, he was living in Dickinson, Franklin Co., NY. He was married to Cynthia, and they had started their family. They would have five children altogether.
On 25 Apr 1887, Wallace was admitted to the St. Lawrence County Poor House. At that time, he was judged insane. By 1900, Wallace was a patient at the St. Lawrence State Hospital in Lisbon, NY. He apparently remained there for the rest of his life.
