MRB1863,

It is unfortunate that information was not added to the roster. Many enlisted were employed for certain but, its not listed anywhere within the Southern Historical Society; I may go further to see about paroles but, this isn't necessarily 'proof' that they were on detail/appointment/assigned to staff, e.g. clerk, etc.

I'll take this inquiry on - (July 5th, 2015) and if I do find believable information, I'll add to it.

What an admirable adventure you embark upon! Some of the unit histories contain rosters, but not all I have seen. What a task of HUGE magnitude to roster each participant in the Civil War by regiment and name! Can only imagine the depth of research exercised in a herculean effort such as this!!!

Note: Information is so great, on just officers, staff and non-commissioned officers, to which must/should be added civilian clerks and 'conscripted' workers at headquarters, it took 109 pages of cut and paste to 'round up' just this area; to which only addresses the ANV Paroles. It will take up excess bandwidth in my opinion.

Meanwhile, I have listed those commands that have paroles under the ANV, to which can be researched independent of me. However, having 'researched and copied to a personal file'--I could look up something if is posted.
