Exhibits of Illinois volunteers mustered into U.S. service, 1863-1865.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/36977971

Volume contains copies of monthly reports of Illinois volunteers mustered into federal service which were submitted by the Adjutant General to the War Department in order to receive state credit for their enlistment. Arranged in a tabular format, each exhibit lists all military units reporting volunteers and shows the number of men mustered into each arm of the service (i.e., infantry, cavalry, artillery); enlistment term; and total number of men from all units mustered into each service. Each exhibit then breaks down volunteers by congressional district or locality (i.e., township; city; county) to be credited with enlistment. Exhibits also indicate the number of out-of-state volunteers mustered into both state and federal service by Illinois. Each exhibit is certified by the chief state mustering officer and signed by the Adjutant General.
