In September, [1864] the regiment's original enlistments expired, and the unit was reorganized for an additional three years. Following the Appomattox Campaign, it was ordered to Washington, D.C., where it was consolidated with the 1st Pennsylvania Cavalry and 17th Pennsylvania Cavalry to form the 2nd Pennsylvania Provisional Cavalry. The combined regiment was sent to Louisville, Kentucky, where it was mustered out on August 7, 1865.

https://digital.librarycompany.org/islandora/object/digitool%3A79232/printTitle H. J. Toudy & Co.
Date fl. 1865-1878
Description
H. J. Toudy & Co., established by partners
Henry J. Toudy and
William Toudy at 503-505 Chestnut Street, specialized in maps, atlases, and city view prints, and operated 1865-1878. Relocating to 525 Chestnut Street in 1872, the studio merged with the printing firm of George W. Ward & Company (formerly at 52 North Sixth Street). The new company of Henry J. Toudy, George W. Ward and William C. Merillat lasted less than two years with Ward leaving in 1872 and Merillat in 1873. Despite William Toudy's continual affiliation with the firm during this time, Henry J. Toudy became the sole proprietor, and as of 1875, his firm had a reported worth of $10,000.
Although the firm executed "very fine specimens of work in all departments of the art," atlases, maps, and city views preponderate the noted works of the company. Toudy & Co. worked on several Stone & Stewart county atlases in 1866, numerous county atlases published between 1873 and 1877, and many of the "General Surveys" of industrial plants throughout the Mid-Atlantic region produced by Ernest Hexamer during the 1870s. The firm also produced a number of respected views of cities, including one of the earliest depictions of Salt Lake City (1867), 13 full-color city view prints for "The Centennial Book of the Signers" (1872), and one of the first bird's-eye views produced by T. M. Fowler - Trenton, N.J. (1874).
During the 1870s, the firm relocated first to 623 Commerce Street in 1875 and later into the Ziegler & Smith building at Fourth and Cherry Streets in 1877. The decade also saw the firm triumph over Breuker & Kessler in a copyright infringement case over a print based on a drawing by Hermann J. Schwarzmann, architect of the Centennial Exhibition of 1876 grounds. Titled "Bird's Eye View of Centennial Buildings, Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, Pa. 1876," the view copyrighted by Toudy & Co. in March 1875 was one of a number of the Centennial produced by the company for which they are favorably known.
In spite of this legal success, a blow of another sort struck the company in a few years. On March 25, 1878, a devastating fire destroyed the six-story Ziegler & Smith building as well as several adjacent blocks of structures. H. J. Toudy & Company suffered a complete loss, and as a consequence, went out of business, only having a reported $21,000 worth of insurance.

Description
Henry J[ulius] Toudy, born about 1837 in Pennsylvania, worked as a lithographer in Richmond, Virginia by 1860 before establishing the firm H. J. Toudy & Company in Philadelphia following the Civil War. After a devastating fire in 1878 causing the termination of his company, Toudy moved to Shamokin, Pennsylvania where he worked as a coal operator. He returned to Philadelphia about 1884, first working as a coal agent and then switching to publishing from 1886 until 1891. He retired that year when he obtained an invalid pension for his Civil War service in the Pennsylvania Calvary, including the rank of Lieutenant in Rush's Lancers (1864). Toudy died while a resident of 2149 Narona Street on October 23, 1899 in Philadelphia. He was buried at West Laurel Hill Cemetery. Toudy was married to Alida (b. ca. 1842) with whom he had two children Marian (b. ca. 1872) and Henry (b. ca. 1875).
