General:

The following is a roster of the Regimental Field and Staff offices and Company D of the 1st Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry. This roster comes from a doument a little over 18 by 22 inches in size, entitled “Soldier’s Memorial”.  The roster is surrounded by artwork and was copyrighted in 1898 by Fuller Brothers of Buffalo, New York and printed at Jacksonville, Florida by the DA Costa Printing House. The names appears down the center of the roster.

This particular copy of the roster was found among the papers of Charles Churchill who served with this company. Churchill probably obtained the roster while stationed at Jacksonville, Florida's Camp Cuba Libre.

Company D was mustered into service at Camp Harvey, Wisconsin.
