Roster: Company A

Last week I began posting the rosters of the 48th Pennsylvania, and I began with the Regimental Band. Today, I present to you the full and complete roster and muster roll of Company A. It is quite lengthy (there were over 180 soldiers who served in Company A during the war), but it does contain a soldier's date of enlistment, age at enlistment, height, complexion, eye color, hair color, occupation, place of residence, and a brief service record. This information was garnered from the 48th's Regimental histories, from Samuel P. Bates's History of Pennsylvania Volunteers, and, primarily, from the regimental muster rolls archived at the Pennsylvania State Archives. I plan to post one company's full and complete roster per month, so stay tuned.

Company A, 48th Pennsylvania, was recruited largely from Port Clinton, Tamaqua, and surrounding townships in southern Schuylkill County.
