Muster Roll question
Hi -- I have a question about muster rolls, related to my post below (Weldon RR.)
I have a muster roll for my ancestor which reads like this (bad copy, so I'll put what I can.)
Phillips, John D.
Subject: Detailed
Special Order Number 199/40
Aug. 23, 1864
Adjutant & Inspector General's
Office, Confederate States, con-
tains information relative to
the man named, on the subject
mentioned above.
-------- end of document
My questions are these:
1) does this document point to more information and, if so, how to find in mcrofilm? (i.e. is there a way to find special order 199/40)?
2) what is the meaning of "Detailed?"
Thanks a bunch.
