Erasumus Wilson served in the Civil War with distinction as a member of Col. Smith's Thirty-First Iowa Volunteers who marched all around the country, and was on Sherman's march to the Sea. A famous campaign of the Civil War started in 1864 with the troops leaving Atlanta, following a “scorched earth” policy they destroyed military infrastructure and civilian property in order to disrupt the confederacy’s economy, which is thought to be the first example of modern war. He later settled in Los Angeles in a mansion that is now the site of the Doheny campus of St. Mary's College.
