ROSTER

OF THE

TWENTY-SEVENTH MASSACHUSETTS VOLUNTEER INFANTRY REGIMENT.

1861-1865.

We regret to be obliged to differ from the records of the Massachusetts Adjutant General's Office, but in justice to the friends of the regiment we cannot adopt errors which exist in that record. We note one hundred and sixty-one errors in the official record of our men; one of a man reported dead who is still living; some of men who died in the service who were reported discharged; many deaths and discharges reported upon wrong dates, and a great many names incorrectly given. All variations from the Adjutant General's Records will be found in italics. In some instances the spelling of the names found in the body of the book will under later information be found to differ slightly in the roster. It is believed the names as given herein are correct.

To give as much information as possible in this roster, we have adopted the following abbreviations and signs:

Pro., promoted.

Res., resigned.

Disc., discharged.

K'd, killed.

W'ds, wounds.
Dis., disability.
Trans., transferred.
Hosp., hospital.
D'd., died.

Re-enlisted.

+ Wounded.

Taken prisoner.

Brevet Commission.

Discharged by reason of expira-
tion of term of enlistment.
O. W D., Order War Department.
Ret'd Pris., returned prisoner.
V. R. C., Veteran Reserve Corps.
Italics, not like Adjt.-Gen. Report.
