5^3 n $& &m HISTORICAL ROLL OF COMPANY D, 8th REGIMENT NEW-YORK HEAVY ARTILLERY. ORIGINALLY 129th N. Y. INFANTRY EDITED BY JAMES M. FJUDNUT, LATE QUARTERMASTER-SERGEANT. REVISED EDITION. NEW-YORK : THE DE VINNE PRESS. 18S7. NOTE. — I have taken for the basis of this roll the muster-out roll of the Company, in the Adjutant-General's office at Albany, adding to it such data as I could obtain from comrades. I have been aided by memoranda kindly furnished by the Pension Office. Some names given by the latter are otherwise unknown to me, and the fate of some comrades has been learned from this source ; these cases I have designated thus [P]. I am indebted to Sergeants Kohler and Spaulding for much valuable data concerning the history of the Company and the fate of comrades. The names of those enlisted for the Company and rejected by Regimental Surgeon have been omitted. J. M. H. HISTORICAL ROLL OF COMPANY D, EIGHTH NEW-YORK HEAVY ARTILLERY.
