CONSOLIDATED MORNING REPORT of The Ninety First Regiment of Infantry Pennsylvania Volunteers commanded by Colonel E. M. Gregory

NOTE.--Regimental and Battalion Staff Officers, when belonging to companies, will be reported in such companies as "on detached service," and be accounted for in "Field and Staff." They will, however, be dropped from aggregate of "Present and Absent" in Field and Staff, and be accounted for in the aggregate of their respective companies.

Date May 20th 1863.			Camp near Falmouth Va.
Companies			Field, Staff, and Band	A	B	C	D	E	F	G	H	I	K	Unas- signed	Total

		Saddlers
		Wagoners
		Field Music		2	1	1	1			1	2	1	2		11
		Pioneers			2	2			2	2	1	1	2		11
		['Artificers & Blacksmiths' is crossed out and 'Pioneers' written in. The co.G entry is written over a '1'. The total present in company G is correct only if it is '2', but the total pioneers present is correct only if it is '1'. The most reasonable correction is that the co.G entry should be '2', and the total is then wrong, but offset by the mistake in Privates on Extra and daily duty.]
		Privates		4	11	21	17		14	5	9	7	4		92
		Recruits

Extra and daily duty		Non-commissioned Officers		2		1		1							4
		Privates		19		2	1	1	4	3	1	2	2		35
		[Because the vertical total for co.E is off by 1, and the reports for the 19th and 21st have 0 private on extra and daily duty, I suspect it should be 0 here also. This makes the total too high, but the error in Pioneers present for duty offsets that.]
