Civil War Soldiers Record

$178.00

Original American Civil War–era military document titled:

“Volunteer Descriptive List and Account of Pay and Clothing”

It was used to record a soldier’s:

physical description,

enlistment details,

pay,

clothing/equipment issued,

and transfer or hospital information.

From the handwriting visible, the soldier appears to have served in a New York Volunteer Infantry regiment (the top line looks like “5th Vol. Regt. New York…” though the exact regiment is faint). The document is dated around the Civil War period and references a hospital transfer/pay accounting.
