TRANSCRIBER’S NOTES

This ebook was transcribed by a native of the state of Ohio.

This book transcription is dedicated to Thadeus “Ted” Slade, also a native Ohioan and the biggest Civil War history buff I know.

Some punctuation has been standardized. Some alternate spellings may have been retained. Some obvious misspellings and typographical errors/omissions have been corrected. Any other changes are noted below.

Some inconsistencies in human or place names were corrected by correlating with names elsewhere in the text.

The errata from the original book was applied to this text.

p. 60: Inserted a probable missing beginning of paragraph. (“[It] is perhaps unnecessary”)

p. 64: Corrected year in chapter description from 1862 to 1863. The Battle of Chancellorsville took place in 1863, and the end of the prior chapter also indicates we are in mid-1863 at this point in the journal.

p. 120: Corrected date “August 2st” to August 1st (“August 1st to 3d, hot firing all the time.”). The phrasing “to” vs. “and” makes a date range of larger than two days likely, and it’s more reasonable to believe the printer misplaced 2 for 1, than misplaced “st” for “nd”.

p. 143: Corrected time from 6:30 to 9:30 (“at 9:30 fell in and marched six miles as rear guard to the Twentieth army corps”). It’s not logical that they would move from 8:00am back to 6:30am in the journal. The printer presumably set 6 in place of 9, or inverted the 9.

p. 232: Corrected the discharge date for John H. Finneman (confirmed using records found on civilwarindex.com on January 23, 2021). As printed, the date was June 18, 1865.

p. 241: Corrected Lysander T. King’s company from “T” to “F” per the company F listing on p. 206.
