These four rosters each contain a complete listing of members of the 53rd Massachusetts Volunteer Militia. They are variously alphabetized by last names, companies, occupations and home towns of the soldiers. |

The column entitled R. H. Pages is an index to the Regimental History written by Henry A. Willis (index prepared by John W. Hager). The entries with an X are listed with the 53rd in the Soldiers' and Sailors' database of the National Archives, but do not appear in the regimental history text. I suspect these are due to errors of handwriting interpretation, since the S & S database also contains many duplications with alternate spellings of names. |
