The following list of Woodhursts was extracted in January 2000 from the American Civil War Research Database, giving records of those who enlisted as soldiers in the Civil War. The search covered only the surname Woodhurst as spelled, ignoring all other variants. There were just five references, all for the Union Army. Each reference is given in the format
name : state served : when enlisted : rank : age : where enlisted : army
Hazeral Woodhurst : Ohio : 30 October 1861 : Private : 26 : -- : Union Hazard (1) Woodhurst Daniel F. Woodhurst : Ohio : 07 October 1861 : Private : 19 : -- : Union Daniel Farris Woodhurst John Woodhurst : New York : 27 November 1861 : Private : 20 : New York City : Union John (2) Woodhurst Stephen Woodhurst : Iowa : 24 August 1861 : Private : 27 : -- : Union Stephen Woodhurst William Woodhurst : Iowa : 11 August 1862 : Private : 35 : -- : Union William (4) Woodhurst
Additionally, the database was searched for the mustering-out details for just Stephen and William (4), and yielded these two records drawn from the "Roster and Record of Iowa Soldiers in the War of Rebellion", first published by English in 1910:
