Jozer in the 259th Regiment, 18th Brigade, 20th Division. Signed by Colonel Henry C. Wells at Wellburgh, on August 28th, 1835.

Anthony Beidelman (1812-1890) was the son of Pennsylvania German farmers Isaac Beidelman (1780-1856) and Urana Middaugh Beidelman (1785-1848) of Athens, Bradford County, Pennsylvania, near the New York line. The family appears on the 1820 Census in Athens, but later relocates to Chemung, Tioga, New York by 1830. Anthony Beidelman was born in New York, according to the 1850 census, but lived part of his early life in Bradford County.
