THE purpose of this publication is to direct all persons interested to an orderly and permanent compilation of names
and records of those from Allegheny County, Pennsylvania,
who, during the War for the Suppression of the Rebellion, so
heroically tendered their services that the Union of the States
might be perpetuated.
The compilation contains, in alphabetical order, the name and
official record of every man (so far as we have been able to ascertain), who served in the United States Army or Navy from
Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, during the time of the War of
the Rebellion, 1861-1865, giving the rank and organization in

In addition are listed the names of the United States Colored
Troops, also the Emergency Men who volunteered during that period, from Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, in defense of the State.
