Jennifer, Company B was known as the "Men of Yadkin." This company was raised in Yadkin County and enlisted at Yadkinville on October 16, 1861. It was mustered into state service at Camp Mangum, near Raleigh, on December 31, 1861, and was assigned to this regiment as Company B. If you need information on any particular soldier in the company, just let me know. Edward

Ann The population of the United States in 1860 was 31,101,000, of which 21,244,000 lived in the North and 10,957,000 in the Confederacy. In the Confederate states 5,447,000 of these people were white, 133,000 free black, and 3,951,000 were slaves. There were 320,000 deaths in Union forces, 3.2 percent of the total male population; and 300,000 deaths in the Confederate forces, 9.7 percent of the (white) male population. This death rate, with the current population of the United States 284,050,000, would be equivalent to 6.5 million men being killed today. Most of those killed were teenagers and men in their 20s.

Thanks for the info, Alice. I was leaning that way myself but haven't seen enough of these records to know for sure! My man was very nearly right "off the boat" from Bas-Rhin Alsace and probably jumped at the chance to earn some money as a substitute. Do you have any idea what the "M.I.R." stamp next to the handwritten "sub" might have meant? Thanks, Joe -- Joseph W.

Could M.I.R. mean microfilm information retrieval?

Have you tried www.footnote.com? I ran a search on just the name and there are many, many records on Francis Schuler to feast your eyes upon, but you would know much better than I whether any of them are your Francis Schuler. They offer a limited free membership that might be enough to find what you want, but I don't know. Best wishes on your search. Cathey

Joe, Sometime ago I had written to find out what the marking on some military records meant. I was sent a list.

"Sub" generally means he was a substitute; at least that's the indicator used in the PA records. The agreements, between the man who recruited the soldier to act as his substitute, and the substitute, were private between the two men. As a result they usually are not a part of the substitute's military record. Occasionally I have seen the name of the man for whom the soldier was substituted, but that is the exception, not the rule.

I'm hoping someone who's seen this before can help - I have the enlistment card for ancestor named Francis Schuler who signed on to the 119th Regiment of New York Volunteers on July 4, 1862 for a term of 3 years in New York City. It indicates he was mustered in on Aug 30, 1862 as a private but there is no mustering out info recorded on the card and as of yet I have found no pension file, note of desertion or other info about his service. Curiously, the margin of the card has a note written in the same hand as whoever completed the card that says "sub" and then following it is what to my eye looks like typewriter-made lettering (but given the time period I'm guessing was a stamp) saying "M.I.R." Can anyone identify these marks? Does the "sub" probably mean Francis Schuler enlisted as a substitute or that he hired a substitute to take his place or something else entirely? Thanks!
