Note: These Muster Rolls follow the course of Edmond Coon's service as a private in the Union army. The muster rolls on this page are from the 160th Regiment. They cover the period from July 1864 to his mustering-out on June 1865.
I have attempted to reproduce the appearance of the muster rolls, obtained from the National Archives, as accurately as possible. Fonts in script are to be considered as written by clerks; other fonts as printed on the form.
