Timothy Gilroy was designated Class II in the 1863 Civil War draft. My research indicates that he did not serve in the Civil War. He is listed on Line 20, at the bottom of the page.

TImothy Gilroy's Algebra Book

 

In the late 1990's I established contact with my cousin, Jack Gilbert through a Gilroy message board. It had been decades since I had seen him. He shared an image of what Timothy used to record his marriage and births. Instead of a bible, it is his algebra book.
