    1. [NY-Mil] Roster of 57th NY State Volunteers
    2. George W. Peek
    3. I've just transcribed the muster role of the 57th New York State Volunteer Infantry from the regimental history, "Story of a Regiment," by Gilbert Frederick. The regiment was made up of companies recruited by Samuel K. Zook. Companies A, D, E, F & G were recruited mainly in New York City. Co. B, from the Utica area, Co. C from Kings & Lewis Counties, and Cos. H, I & K from Dutchess County. I am willing to share this file with others, but have no website where I can post it. The file is about 75K as a .txt file and I can send it as an attachment to an email to anyone who is interested. If you would like a copy, send me an email directly and I will attach a copy of the roster in a return email to you. BTW, my wife's great grandfather and one of his brothers . both from Windham, NY, enlisted in Co. H in 1861 and were with the regiment until almost the end of the war. Four long years... it's amazing that they survived, given the high casualty rates of many of the Civil War Regiments. We are fortunate to have a copy of Frederick's book, which was originally owned by my wife's great grandfather, the Civil War Vet... I understand that this book is fairly rare. -- George W.
