Hi Everyone, The following group of names are from the First Regiment New York Volunteers book that I transcribed into a database. For those of you who have been having problems locating ancestors, don't feel bad, the author of the NY Volunteers book was only able to definitively locate the whereabouts of less than half of the original volunteers. The names included here are the ones the author thought he knew a little something about. There are an additional 423 names the author didn't have a clue about. Obviously that is way too many to post to the list. ----------------------------------------------------------- [NOTE: "Living?" means that the author thought these men were still alive in 1882] AMES, Thaddeus M.; Company C, Private; Living?
