PREFACE


The history of Company "I" 103rd regiment N. Y. S. Volunteer Infantry was undertaken in accordance with a resolution passed unanimously at the eighth annual re- union of Company "I" Veteran Association held at Grove Park in Elmira, N. Y., on the 30th day of August, 1895. By this resolution the author and compiler of this work was instructed "to prepare a pamphlet each year" at a cost not to exceed twenty-five dollars.


At the ninth annual reunion, very little having been done on the work, he was again instructed to proceed with the work of preparing for publication a history of Company "I" and was limited to a cost not to exceed fifty dollars. At first it was contemplated only to gather historical facts in relation to the service of the company, but it assumed larger proportions until the present little volume is the result. In its preparation the author is in- debted very much to Mrs. Crosby, who gave all the pa- pers, records and documents left by her late husband, Captain William M. Crosby, relating to the company, its formation, authority for organization, etc., also the loan of the private diaries of Captain Crosby, for the years of 1502. 1863 and 1864. These were invaluable in con- clusively settling records and dates of events and in no other way could have been obtained a knowledge of many of the facts gathered in this compilation.


He is also indebted to Lieut. Geo. T. Dudley of the In- terior Department, Washington, D. C., for his willingness sa contributing a chapter to the history, as well as other valuable work, and to Captain Geo. A. Hussey for sketch of Col. Benj. Ringold with photos. also a mono- wie on recruits. Comrade Husser has shown a most : mmendable zeal and ability in assisting in the work in Any way called upon. He is as well under a debt of


3


gratitude to the comrades of Company "I" for their for- bearance and for answers to letters of inquiry.


In some instances it has been impossible to secure the data for personal sketches, and as a consequence they do not appear. In such cases a note under the name in the roll on the same page will give all that is known. He has also endeavored to obtain the whereabouts of those surviving comrades whose addresses were unknown and in this has been ably seconded by other members of the Association, but notwithstanding all efforts, there are eleven of the original company that left Elmira, sup- posed to be still living, whose place of residence is un- known.


He has endeavored to make herein no statement with- out authority for the same, nor has he trusted to mem- ory, but has taken the facts gathered, from records, from Captain Crosby's diary, statements of comrades who were knowing to the same, his own record of events written at the time of the occurrence, or any other sources where records were made at the time. Captain Crosby's record of events is very complete and it has been relied on to quite an extent as the best obtainable. Many times the different records have been compared to get facts.


The age given at enlistment is not in all instances cor- rect, for the reason that in some cases a greater age was given than the true one. This was probably true in a large number of cases where the person enrolled was under eighteen years of age in order to be sure of accept- ance. The date of birth given in personal sketches should correct these errors, where sketches are given.


In making up the personalsketches of comrades it has been deemed best not to repeat the movements of the company and regiment in each individualcase unless that movement, or action, particularly concerned that com-


4


rade. Though this rule has been followed there are a few instances when it was deviated from, the compiler having in mind the illustrations of some phase of army life or the narative of events in some specified action. For these reasons the military service of comrades in their sketches may sometimes seem deficient. In some cases and in fact many comrades have almost altogether failed to mention their part in the war, expecting the author to supply it from the records apparently forgetting that no records of service are at hand. He has failed in many cases to get from comrades in their data for sketches much of details such as promotions, detached service, volunteering for hazardous undertakings, etc. Much of this could have been remedied by personal conversation had it been possible.


That there may be many inaccuracies and omissions there is no doubt, but that these have been reduced to a minimum the author is satisfied. With all its faults, however, he trusts that the History of Company "I" will be a welcome guest in the homes of the former members and their families in coming years.

REGIMENTAL DATA.


The 103d Regiment, New York State Volunteers, { Sew- ard Infantry) was formed at New York City, under the direction and supervision of Baron Fred W. Von Egloff- stein, who was commissioned Colonel of the same by the Governor of the State of New York. It was enlisted be- tween November, 1861, and March. 1862, for three years. The organization was completed March 1st, 1862, by the consolidation of the 3d Regiment, German Rifles, Colonel Caspar Schneider, with the Seward Infantry, Colonel von Egloffstein. The companies (except Company "I," which was raised in Elmira, N. Y., ) were enlisted in and around the city of New York. Thesecompanies were almost exclusively Germans, including officers, and in their inter- course with each other talked the German language, many of them, in fact, being unable to speak or understand English to any great extent. Company "C" was what the Colonel chose to call the "Elite Company," and was made the color company in the regimental line. It was composed of commissioned officers, Europeans, who had seen service in the Prussian army. They were passed by board of examiners in New York City, the purpose being to use them as officers in volunteer New York State regi- ments as vacancies occurred. Although they shouldered the musket, they enlisted on the condition above stated, and, as this condition could not be fulfilled. they were mustered out of the United States' service and sent back to New York May S. 1862, after the regiment had reached the front and were in camp near Newberne, N. C. For this reason there were but nine companies in this regiment during the war.


The regiment left the State March 5th, 1862, aud pro- ceeded to Washington, D. C., going into camp at Meri- dian Hill, where they completed their equipment and


6


where they were joined on the 23d by Captain William M. Crosby with Company I.


On the 25th of March the full regiment proceeded by rail to Annapolis, Md., and on the 27th went on board the steamer Errieson; April 1st came to Newberne, N. C., being in General Reno's brigade, 2d Division, Department of N. C .; from July, 1862, was in the 1st Brigade, 3d Division 9th Army Corps; from April, 1863, was at Suf- folk, Va., in the 7th Corps, Department of Va .; June and July, 1863, was on the Peninsula in 1st Brigade, 2d Di- vision, 7th Corps; from August, 1863, in the Depart- ment of the South, Alvord's Brigade, 2d Division, 18th Corps, also in same Brigade Gen. Vogdes Division, 10th Corps; from August, 1864, in 2d Brigade, DeRussey's Division, 22d Corps; from September 22d, 1864, in 1st Brigade, Provisional Division, Army of Shenandoah, in Shenandoah Valley, Va .; January 1st, 1865, in 1st Brig- ade, Ferrera's Division, Army of the James, at Bermuda Front, Va. After the surrender of the Army of Northern Virginia by Gen. Lee at Appomattox, Va., the regiment, reduced by the muster out of those whose term of en- listment had expired, was formed into a battalion of three companies, A, B and C, under the command of Cap- tain William Radlick, and was in the Department of Nottoway, Va. The service was Provost Duty in the counties around Petersburg, Va. The battalion was mustered out of the service of the United States finally on account of services being no longer required at City Point, Va., Dec. 7th, 1865, and was sent to Hart's Island, New York Harbor, for final par, which was re- ceived December 14th, 1865.

HISTORY OF COMPANY I


103rd New York Volunteers.


-


Late in the year 1861 William M. Crosby of Bingham- ton, N. Y., then connected with Cauldwell's Commercial College of Elmira, N. Y., became very much interested in raising a company of volunteers for the war, and after correspondence on the subject with the State authorities, both the executive and the military, he received authority from Col. Baron Von Egloffstein of the Seward Infantry, then forming at New York City, to raise a company for that regiment. This paper is dated December 28th, 1861, and bears the approval of the Governor, signed by Thos. Hillhouse, Adjutant General.


A few days later he received a commission from Head- quarters Military Depot at New York City, dated Janu- ary 2d, 1862, signed by Brigadier General commanding. and countersigned by Colonel Von Egloffstein, command- ing Seward Infantry. This commission gave Captain Crosby authority to raise a company designated as Com- pany "I," Seward Infantry, which regiment was being raised by special order from the Governor of the State of New York. Thereupon Elliot F. Sheppard, commanding the military depot at Elmira, provided quarters for the new company in the brick building then known as " Cold Spring Brewery" on West Water Street, Elmira, and contracted for subsistence for the men as they should be enlisted at the hotel, northeast corner of Water and Main Streets, then known as " Franklin Hotel."


The enrollment began on January 3d, 1862, and pro- gressed with fairly good success. The medical examina tions were by Dr. W. C. Wey, a physician of repute living in Elmira, and each recruit. after passing examination, was mustered into the service by Captain William Hud- son Lawrence, U. S. A., or Major A. L. Lee, U. S. A. Bounties were not thought of at that time, though the
