Private Moses C. Annas - Company "B", 17th U.S. Infantry
Moses C. Annis was born September 26, 1843 at Presque Isle, Maine, the son of John Lewis Annas and (Mary Clark) Annas. He married Mary E. Dudley in 1866 after the war and had six children.
July 1 and 2, 1863, the regiment made a forced march in order to reach the field of Gettysburg, during which so many of its men fell by the wayside utterly exhausted, that of the 334 present June 30, but 226 went into action. In the fierce fight that followed in the "Devil's Den," Lieutenant Chamberlin and 24 men were killed and 13 officers and 112 men wounded or missing, Lieutenant Abbot dying shortly after from wounds. "Gettysburg" appears on the colors .He died July 29, 1884 at Easton, Maine and is buried at Estes Park Cemetery, Easton. His headstone states that he was born September 26, 1845, but this may be an error as according to Maine records his father died July 3, 1842, three months before Moses' birth.
