    1. [NYNAS ] 127th New York Infantry
    2. Hi All,        My name is Tony DellaRocca.  I am member of the Board of Trustees and the company Genealogist for the 14th Regiment NYSM Co.E Living History Association.  The 14th Brooklyn was a CW regiment.(www.14thBrooklyn.net)        As I was doing my research for the 14th, I started walking the Cemeteries of Long Island and New York.  I noticed so many CW vets headstones, with many in disrepair, that I started to take pictures of them all, and list them in a data base.  I noticed here on Long Island many 127th NY men, so I took an interest, and started working specifically on that regiment. The regiment had many men that came from the South Shore of Long Island, some right in my own backyard( I am from Lindenhurst).  I have spent the last 4 years gathering info on the regiment, and the men.  I have a non commercial website dedicated to this fine regiment.  There are over 260 pages of info, including individual pages for over 240 men.  I also have a gravesite registration page, with over 1350 men listed from all different regiments.  I have at least another 800 to list.  I have pictures of all of those headstones, and if anyone wants any specific information on any of those soldiers, just send me an e-mail.        I am trying to get the word out on this fine Regiment (with a real Long Island presence), I hope you will stop by and let me know what you think!              I will be posting information on the list from time to time on specific men.  So many of them are from founding families of Long Island!              The website address is 127thNewYork.com                     Regards,                     Tony DellaRocca                     127thNewYork.com
