The writer of the volume visited the office of the adjutant-general at Columbus, Ohio, and prepared a verbatim copy of the rolls of the Twenty-ninth regiment as transcribed in that office, which was published and issued with the proof copies. The following roster is largely from the pen of Colonel Jonas Schoonover, who is responsible for its correctness.
