Published in 1875, this substantial hardcover volume is an exceptionally detailed Civil War service, casualty, and genealogy record for the Town of Andover, Massachusetts, compiled by Samuel Raymond and printed by Warren F. Draper.

Unlike many postwar town histories, this work functions as a comprehensive military register, documenting Andover’s participation in the Civil War with extraordinary depth and name density.

?? Contents include:

• Personal Army Records with full names, parentage, birthplaces, enlistment dates, units, wounds, deaths, discharges, and postwar notes

• Personal Navy Records and a separate Index to Seamen’s Names

• Detailed regimental histories (infantry, artillery, cavalry, heavy artillery)

• Rolls of volunteers, substitutes, bounty recruits, and drafted men

• Casualty tables, enlistment quotas, bounties paid, and financial records

• Extensive coverage of major engagements including Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Spotsylvania, Petersburg, and more

• A full alphabetical index to soldiers’ names, spanning dozens of pages, making this an outstanding genealogical reference

?? Genealogical significance:

This book is invaluable for family historians, as it preserves names that often do not appear elsewhere, including substitutes, “bounty jumpers,” naval servicemen, and men credited to Andover while serving in other units. Full biographical entries often include parents’ names, places of birth (including Ireland, Scotland, England, and Canada), and postwar outcomes.
