Milwaukee, WI: Elizabeth M. Warner, p. 20: Interestingly, the Official Records indicates Warner was still a captain even as late as June 30, 1864.  The regimental history by James M. Aubery mentions he was promoted to Major on June 11, 1864 in a short biography of Warner. Warner’s descendant Elizabeth M. Warner indicates in this letter Clement was a Major on June 23, 1864. ↩
  18. Taylor, Guy C. Letters Home to Sarah: The Civil War Letters of Guy C. Taylor, Thirty-Sixth Wisconsin Volunteers (University of Wisconsin Press: 2012), p. 55: “Their is only 300 men in our reg. now…” from a letter dated June 26, 1864.  Based on a letter written just two days later (see below), this number appears to be present, NOT present for duty.  Taylor indicated that the regiment had 50 less men on June 28.  The most logical explanation to me is that 300 officers and men on June 26 is the number present, while the June 28 figure of 250 is present for duty strength.  The regiment was involved in no major battle in that time. In addition, the quarterly ordnance return shows the regiment possessed 258 Springfield rifles on  June 30, 1864.  Add these clues together and this explanation makes sense. ↩
  19. Taylor, Guy C. Letters Home to Sarah: The Civil War Letters of Guy C. Taylor, Thirty-Sixth Wisconsin Volunteers (University of Wisconsin Press: 2012), p. 56: “The Reg. numbers 250 men…” and “their is 230 guys in the regiment…” seems to indicate that the 36th Wisconsin contained approximately 230 enlisted men and 20 officers on June 28, 1864.  The regiment contained 258 Springfield rifles in the June 30, 1864 quarterly ordnance return referred to below, so this seems to be a pretty accurate statement by Guy C. Taylor. ↩
