John E. Darby, M.D was an Assistant Surgeon from June 1862, and a
full Surgeon from May 1864 with the Ohio 42nd
Infantry and the Ohio 125th with the U.S. Colored
Troops.
In the spring of
1861
Xenophon Scott enlisted in the three months'
service and at the close of his term of enlistment
resumed his studies in Jefferson College, but only
for one session. He then re-enlisted, and at the
second enlistment was in the quartermaster's
department. During the arduous campaigning before
Pittsburg his health failed and he was obliged to
resign. When the Franco-Prussian war broke out
Doctor Scott was put in sole charge of a military
hospital, and was the only foreign surgeon thus
honored by the German authorities.

When the civil war broke out,
Dr. Thayer tendered his services, without compensation, to
examine the soldiers who entered the Union ranks, and several
thousand were so examined by him. No man was more enthusiastic
and patriotic than he, his time and money being freely given to
the cause of the country. Later in the war he entered the United
States Army, serving at the reduction of Forts Sumter, Moultrie,
and Wagner, after which he was given charge of the principal
hospital for the wounded at Beaufort, South Carolina.
