Hoyt was wounded twice in combat and participated in such historic battles as Antietam, Gettysburg, the Wilderness, the Siege of Petersburg and the surrender of General Robert E. Lee’s Confederate Army at Appomattox, according to the information. Hoyt spent his latter years in Seattle and died here in 1923. Since the time of his burial in Mount Pleasant cemetery, Hoyt
had laid in an unmarked grave, largely forgotten for 97 years. In 2021, Seattle’s Civil War Legacy, a public history project dedicated to sharing the stories of Seattle’s pioneering Civil War veterans, helped spearhead an effort to obtain a federal veteran’s headstone for Hoyt. The effort involved cooperation with individuals, organizations and museums in both the Seattle area and in Wisconsin. The effort succeeded, and a headstone was installed on Hoyt’s grave this year.
