  • Note:
    Emly was a colonel in the volunteer Union army in MO. Later he became a Captain in the regular Union Army and fought in MS and AL. Emly bought a slave from the Benjamin Hinds estate--even though he was Union. The Goldens in general went Union and the Ullman/Ulmons went Confederate. This led to a lot of trouble between Emly and his second wife, Sarah Jane Ullman. Emly was buried by his 1st wife.

    Emly once had a horse thief hanged.

    The U. S. 1880 census, Elk Fork, Pettis, MO shows Emley Golden, b. 1812 in NJ, age 68, farmer, head of household, father & mother both b. in NJ.

    ----------------------------------

    Emly Golden played a major role in the Civil War. Miller County records show he purchased a woman slave from the
    Benjamin Hinds estate before the war. This was unusual since he was a Northerner. She may have been given her freedom by Emly. He joined the Union forces when a company was organized at Camp Union on Mill Creek near present-day Brumley in May, 1861. Emly was selected as Colonel in McClurg's Osage Regiment and his forces helped to secure the south side of the county. His troops were well equipped with pistols, rifles, shotguns and knives. Later they crossed the Osage River and joined Captain Jacob Capps' forces as they moved upon the courthouse at Tuscumbia.

    By June 14, 1861, Colonel Golden and his Captains moved out of Camp Union with a cavalry of 400 men mounted on horses. His forces were the mightiest military power ever seen in Miller County.

    Emly Golden was enrolled on the 22 day of August, 1862 in Company E of the 33rd Regiment of the Missouri Infantry
    commanded by Colonel Clinton B. Fisk. He was honorably discharged at Rolla, Missouri on 14 October 1862 because of poor health.
