Consolidated morning report, 91st PA, 17 February 1864

[previous report (3 Jan) | next report (17 [?] Feb #2) | search & display multiple days]

[I have proofread this page.]
[This report has a large number of errors. It and the next report are undated. Since they report a similar number of enlistments etc., and since the men returned from furlough only on the 16th, I suspect they are both versions of the first consolidated morning report after the regiment returned from veterans' furlough. I have therefore not included these numbers in the database of searchable compiled morning report statistics]
[I have changed the format to improve legibility.]
[Numbers in square brackets and with grey shading are missing or illegible in the manuscript.]

CONSOLIDATED MORNING REPORT of [blank] Regiment of [blank] commanded by Colonel [blank]

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.
