Hi Everyone, Here are the requests and the results of searching the 1st Regiment of New York Volunteers: ---------------------------------- I'd appreciate a look-up for any SCHMITZ people.

All sailed into New York in the 1840's. — Jim Schmitz <<< No Listing among 1st Regiment of New York Volunteers >>> ---------------------------------- What is the name of your book, Anita? Supposedly my ancestor, A.A. HUGHES, joined in Alabama. I think he was an officer. — Sue in MN <<< No A.A. HUGHES among the 1st Regiment, but there were the following: HUGHES, John, enlisted in Company D as a private and HUGHES, William, enlisted in Company F as a corporal. There was no further information on either of these men. >>> ---------------------------------- My greatgrandfather left NY and went down to Mississippi where he joined a regiment (2nd) to fight in the war with Mexico.
