Correspondence and lists of deceased and hospitalized soldiers reported to Governors Salomon and Lewis by State Military agents and Sanitary commission agents and by a few regimental and hospital surgeons. The correspondence consists of narrative reports on the care of sick, wounded, and discharged soldiers, together with comments on the general condition of Wisconsin troops. A few reports contain information on individual soldiers. Relief agencies represented by these agents include the Wisconsin Soldier's Aid Society, New England Soldiers Relief Association, United State Sanitary Commission, Union volunteer Refreshment Saloon, and Cooper shop volunteer Refreshment Saloon. State military agents include M.D. Bartlett, Sam C. Bean, Robert R. Corson, E.S. Hall, Frank S. Howe, E.L. Jones, Jacob Law, L.B. Nichols, W.Y. Selleck, George C. Smith, D.R. Spooner, George W. Sturgis, and George R. Sturitz. Occasional correspondence, including some from Mrs. Cordelia Harvey, a special agent for Wisconsin, is scattered among the lists. The reports contain lists of Wisconsin soldiers in hospital, giving name, rank, regiment, medical reasons for hospitalization, and when appropriate, date and place of death. The reports were arranged and numbered by the adjutant general, probably during the 1880s, when the names were reviewed in order to complete and correct the records of individual soldiers.
