Book Description
The Grand Army of the Republic was a patriotic organization open to Union veterans of the Civil War. The organization provided fraternity, commemoration and assistance to its members, primarily by establishing soldiers' homes and caring for war orphans. Each post was supposed to submit lists of members who had died during the previous year. These rolls were included in the minutes of each encampment.
