ROSTER.
CHAPTER XXX.
ROSTER OF THE NINTH NEW YORK HEAVY ARTILLERY.
The basis of the data given is the material, preserved in the office of the adjutant general in Albany, described as trans- cripts of rolls now in the custody of the War Department, Washington. To insure accuracy, every name should have been compared with the latter collection, but this privilege, though earnestly sought, was unqualifiedly denied. Each company roll, however, has been submitted to the inspection of one or more members of the same; in this way numerous corrections have been made; notwithstanding this, they must still abound in errors. The sole comment in sending out the compilation is that under the circumstances it is the very best possible.
In the record of transferrals to the 2d N. Y. H. A. it is thought unnecessary to name the company to which transferral is made, it being remembered that Company I of the 2d was made up of men from I, B and C of the Ninth; K of those of K, F, E and H; L took the "left overs" of L, A and G, in part, while M had M. D and the remainder of G.
The original 138th N. Y. Infantry, with the exception of Com- pany B and the field and staff, was mustered into the U. S. service Sept. 8, 1862. The exceptions, as above, were mustered in September 9.
In taking data for officers, read the date following promotion as that of Muster-in; the next, or that of rank, explains itself.
For privates and non-commissioned officers the name is fol- lowed by age; next date of enlistment and town to which en- listment is ascribed; then date of Muster-in and period if for less than three years (unless otherwise stated the soldier is mustered in as private); next, any incident in service, as wounded, taken prisoner, or promotion; finally date and manner of leaving service, thus:
Doe, John, age 20; enlisted Aug. 22, '62, Galen; mustered in Sept. 8, Corp .; wd. June 1, '64, Cold Harbor; mustered out July 6, '65.
To economize space, abbreviations are used as much as possible. Ob- servance of the following list will facilitate the reading of the rolls: Corp. = Corporal; Sergt. = Sergeant; d. = died; dis. = discharged; k. = killed; wd. = wounded; hosp. == hospital; M. O. = mustered out; trans. == transferred; Vet. or V. R. C. = Veteran Reserve Corps; H. A. == Heavy Artillery.

COMPANY A.
COMPANY A.
This company owed its origin largely to the force and energy of its first captain, James W. Snyder, ably supported by Lieu- tenants Hyde and Campbell. August 6th, 1862, a large meeting of citizens was held in front of the Red Creek Hotel, presided over by Abel Lyon, and the Hon. T. M. Pomeroy of Auburn spoke to nearly 2000 people. He was followed by the future captain and later commander of the regiment, who made an impassioned address. Nearly half the company was raised there and then. Over $5,000 was subscribed to help on the bounty fund, the ladies contributing liberally. The majority of the men came from that part of the town of Wolcott known as Red Creek. Almost all the others came from Huron and Butler, to which towns Lieutenants Hyde and Campbell, re- spectively, belonged. Before the company left for the seat of war, admiring fellow citizens gave to Captain Snyder a beau- tiful sword in testimony of their regard and appreciation.
