BiographyBorn in Circleville, Ohio, he attended the common schools; Kenyon College (in Gambier, Ohio) and Miami University (in Ohio). He studied law, was admitted to the bar in 1840, and was appointed United States associate justice for the district of Utah on June 4, 1858. In March 1859, Cradlebaugh convened a grand jury in Provo, Utah concerning the Mountain Meadows massacre and several other unsolved murders and crimes that occurred in the territory, but the jury declined to return any indictments or deliver a report on the charges.[1] Cradlebaugh dismissed the jury and, acting as committing magistrate and accompanied by a military escort, continued his investigation in the vicinity of Mountain Meadows.[2] Territorial officials such as Governor Alfred Cumming Cradlebaugh moved to Carson City, Nevada, and upon the formation of the Territory of Nevada was elected a Delegate to the Thirty-seventh Congress, serving from December 2, 1861, to March 3, 1863, during the first years of the American Civil War.[5] He was the colonel of the 114th Ohio Infantry and served from April 27, 1862, until honorably discharged on October 20, 1863, on tender of resignation after being wounded in the Battle of Vicksburg. Cadelebaugh returned to Nevada and engaged in the mining business until his death at Eureka; interment was in Forest Cemetery, Circleville, Ohio. {{Portal|United States Army|American Civil War}}References1. ^{{Cite book|url=http://www.gutenberg.org/files/3177/3177-h/3177-h.htm#linkAPPENDIX|title=Roughing It|last=Twain|first=Mark|publisher=American Publishing Company|year=1872|isbn=|location=Hartford, Connecticut|pages=310-314|via=Project Gutenberg}} {{S-start}}{{s-par|us-hs}}{{succession box|2. ^{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=-w7pK2k-WtUC|title=Roughing It: A Sourcebook of Artists’ Writings (Second Edition, Revised and Expanded by Kristine Stiles)|last=Twain|first=Mark|last2=Smith|first2=Harriet E.|last3=Branch|first3=Edgar M.|publisher=University of California Press|others=|year=1995|isbn=9780520268173|editor-last=Stiles|editor-first=Kristine|edition=2nd|location=Berkeley, California|pages=757|via=Google Books}} 3. ^FARMS Review Vol. 15, Issue 2, p. 221] 4. ^{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=t7wzjM5IHgMC|title=Army Regulars on the Western Frontier, 1848-1861|last=Ball|first=Durwood|publisher=University of Oklahoma Press|year=2001|isbn=9780806133126|location=Norman, Oklahoma|pages=168|via=Google Books}} 5. ^{{Citation | last=Cradlebaugh | first=John | author-link=John Cradlebaugh | title = Utah and the Mormons: a Speech on the Admission of Utah as a State | date=February 7, 1863 | place = 37th United States Congress, 3rd Session | url = http://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ampage?collId=llcg&fileName=063/llcg063.db&recNum=798}} title=Delegate to the United States House of Representatives from Nevada Territory| before=(none)| years=1861–1863| after=Gordon Newell Mott}}{{S-end}}{{NevadaUSRepresentatives}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Cradlebaugh, John}} 15 : 1819 births|1872 deaths|People from Circleville, Ohio|Delegates to the United States House of Representatives from Nevada Territory|Kenyon College alumni|Mountain Meadows massacre|Union Army colonels|People of Ohio in the American Civil War|People of Nevada in the American Civil War|Miami University alumni|People of the Utah War|Nevada Independents|19th-century American politicians|People from Eureka, Nevada|Utah Territorial judges |
