SOLDIERS MEMORIAL

Company B, 32d N.Y. Volunteers

The handsome memorial to the men of the 32nd NY Volunteer Infantry, Company B., at right, was recently acquired by Norm Winne of Ilion, N.Y. Norm's interest in picking up this gem was that one of the sergeants, William H. Winne, is likely a distant relative. Photographing the memorial under glass was diffficult and we salute Norm for a job well done. For a larger view of the memorial, click on the photograph (58k).

A big thank you to Norm for transcribing the text to show how it appears in the original and to Sue Greenhagen of the "New York State and the Civil War" site for putting Norm in touch with us. All spellings are as on the original memorial. More information about Montgomery County, N.Y. men of Company B is on the Herkimer/Montgomery Counties NYGenWeb site.
