BALTIMORE: JOHN MURPHY & CO. 1888. jy^^"^ PREFACE This Catalogue has been prepared and is now published under the authority of the Board of Trustees. From 1834 to the present time the list of names given is believed to be complete, the matriculation books of the College and University for that period having been preserved. For the time previous to 1834 the records and register of students are defective. Parts have been muti- lated, some books have been lost, and at times the records were imper- fectly kept. The names of the alumni antecedent to 1834 have been obtained from the fragmentary record books ; from the recollection of surviving alumni ; from contemporaneous history and biography, and from family records and well established tradition. Catalogues of the Alumni were published in 1849 and 1869 which have of course fur- nished much valuable information. The list is necessarily incomplete, however, and the alumni and other friends of the University are earnestly requested to aid in the work of restoring lost names, and in otherwise perfecting as far as pos- sible this Record, with reference to a revision at an early day. The plan is to give the name of every man that has been a student at the Institution—his different places of residence—his occupation or pro- fession—the public positions held by him—and, if not living, the date of his death.

  • Civil War Regimental and Unit Histories
    Illinois Adjutant General's Report Regimental and Unit Histories Containing Reports for the Years 1861– 1866 Histories of Illinois Civil War Regiments and Units The following histories of Illinois Civil War regiments and units originate from the first eight volumes of the nine volume publication, Report of the Adjutant General of the State of Illinois (1900-1902). (The ninth volume lists units of the Black Hawk, Mexican and Spanish-American Wars as well as the War of 1812.) The histories, some written shortly after the war’s end, are the work of numerous authors throughout the intervening years. The 1886 version of the Adjutant General’s Report included regimental histories compiled by that office which had not previously been published. The final 1900-1902 republication of the report incorporated revisions and corrections to the histories. A listing of regiments and units which have accompanying histories follows. In recognition of the service of Illinois’ six regiments during the Mexican War, the assignment of regimental numbers for infantry began with seven.
