 After the Civil War, Ludlow moved to Wayne County, NY, where he lived in 1870 with his wife Ellen and worked as a clerk in a store.<ref name="1870Census"/> By 1880, Ludlow had moved to Oyster Bay, Queens County, NY, where he worked as a grocery clerk and lived with the family of Henry C.

 In 1885 he remarried and five years later Ludlow was living in Penn Yan, Yates County, NY at 3 Main Street.<ref name="1890Census">1890 US Veterans Census, Penn Yan, Yates Co, NY</ref> In 1900 and 1910, Ludlow was working as a salesman at a dry goods store and owned a mortgaged home where he and his second wife Ella lived.<ref name="1900Census">1900 US Census, Penn Yan Village, Benton Twp, Yates, Albany Co, NY</ref><ref name="1910Census">1910 US Census, Penn Yan Ward 1, Yates Co, NY</ref> In 1917 Ludlow was granted a increase in his Civil War pension to $30/month by Congress. By 1920 at age 74 years, now living in Palmyra, Wayne County, NY, Ludlow was renting a home and was retired with no occupation.<ref name="1920Census">1920 US Census, Palmyra, Wayne Co, NY</ref>
