Notes
first lt and quarter master 64th regiment ny state volunteers
The regiment was most fortunate in having for its field officers two men of more than ordinary merit, Lieutenant Colonel BINGHAM and Major BROOKS, each of whom received promotion, and each gave up his life as the result of wounds received in battle. Of the staff Dr. BARR, Quartermaster BABB and Adjutant COOPER were each highly esteemed, especially so in the case of Dr. BARR, who will ever stand first in the hearts of the old members of the 64th.
Notes – Formerly the Sixty-Fourth Militia, but reorganized as a volunteer command at Elmira in the autumn of 1861. The regiment arrived at Washington, December 11, 1861, and went into camp near the capitol. It commenced active service in Virginia, January 2, 1862, performing picket duty, with an occasional reconnaissance, until April 5, 1862,
