I stumbled on this completely by accident doing Genealogy research.
This is a report from 1902 that lists the soldiers and their units and the names of their children as well as which parent is deceased.

I found this book as well:
The Civil War soldiers' orphan schools of Pennsylvania, 1864-1889 : an untold story
(a $1.99 Kindle Edition)

Has anyone else run into these before? I was a little baffled at first as these soldiers had to have been quite late in life for the children in the 1902 report.
