Content Note

These records were compiled by Adjutant General William S. Stryker for the purpose of developing a written memorial for New Jersey's Civil War officers. The memorials take the form of correspondence from family members and friends, newspaper articles, and obituaries; they provide biographical information (e.g. military service data) for each officer. Of special note are: a list of all New Jersey officers killed during the war (folder #2); a compilation of brief biographical sketches of New Jersey officers (folder #3); a history of the First Regiment, New Jersey Cavalry, by M. H. Beaumont (folder #17); a history of the Third Regiment, New Jersey Infantry, by Charles Harker (folder #72); and material on Major General Philip Kearny (folder #89).

NOTE: The memorials were originally filed in Civil War binders #223-226. All newspaper articles have been photocopied for preservation; the original clippings are in Box 3.
