GAR REUNION PICTORIAL MEDALLION ID'D TO PRIVATE JOHN J. RAILEY
2ND U.S. SHARPSHOOTERS, WIA GETTYSBURG ON JULY 4, 1863

GAR REUNION PICTORIAL MEDALLION ID'D TO PRIVATE JOHN J. RAILEY
2ND U.S. SHARPSHOOTERS, WIA GETTYSBURG ON JULY 4, 1863

Ca. 1900s. Metallic disc medallion w/bust photo of bearded Railly wearing G.A.R. slouch hat, w/full name-"John J. Railey"-printed along lower margin, colored flag bunting stamped along upper. . Small ring, & ribbon attached, but missing upper bar & pin. Medallion reverse somewhat tarnished. Frontal photo image and flag bunting crisp and distinct, ribbon remnants bright. Else VG

John J. Railey was a 19 year-old resident of Canterbury, NH, who enlisted as a private and was mustered into Co. "G", 2nd U.S. Sharpshooters, on 8/25/1862. He is listed as WIA at Gettysburg, 7/4/1863, and was discharged with a disability on 12/6/1864. The 2nd U. S. S. Gettysburg After-Action describes circumstances concerning its July 4th casualties:

"On the 4th instant, I was ordered to move forward to the Emmitsburg pike, a few hundred yards to the left of the cemetery, and to deploy four companies to skirmish through the field to the wood in front. The enemy was driven back to his earthworks, about 150 or 200 yards from his first position. We held this position through the day, under a sharp fired from his sharpshooters./ The regiment sustained a loss this of 3 killed and 8 wounded/ At 7:30 p.m. I was relieved a New Jersey regiment, of the 6th Corps, and rejoined the brigade."

John J. Railey's New Hampshire company ["G"] was one of a number of companies from various states raised to comprise 2nd U.S. of Colonel Berdan's two regiment sharpshooter brigade. Organized in the fall of 1861, the 2nd U.S.S. entered the lists during Pope's 1862 Campaign, served with distinction in all the subsequent battles of the Army of the Potomac through to its disbanding, and dispersal into various home state units in the winter of 1865. [Pvt. Railey left the unit with a disability in Dec. 1864, just prior to its disbanding.] During service the 2nd U.S.S. lost 125 men killed and mortally wounded, and 129 by disease for a total of 250.

Superb G.A.R. medallion photo of a gallant member of the 2nd U.S. Sharpshooter WIA at Gettysburg. Minimal research information included.

Beginning with the fight at Fredericksburg, the unit participated in all the major engagements through the investment of Petersburg, after which it moved with the 6th Corps to join Gen. Sheridan's Army of the Shenandoah in the 1864 Valley campaign which climaxed in the Battles of Fisher's Hill and Cedar Creek.

Also, there is not the usual large lettering at the top as all the other medals have. There must have been some doubt as to where the reunion would be that year. Department Commander C. H. William Ruhe depicted on front. William Ruhe enlisted in Co. L, 4th Pa Cav on February 3, 1865 and mustered out July 1, 1865. Ribbon is frayed slightly at top.

COMMEMORATION MEDAL - 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE 120TH NEW YORK VOLUNTEERS

COMMEMORATION MEDAL - 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE 120TH NEW YORK VOLUNTEERS

Made of bronze, measuring 2.5" in diameter, .125" in thickness. Obverse side features bust profile of Major General George H. Sharp. Reverse is contains the following inscription, bounded by a wreath: "Issued to the survivors of the regiment at Kingston, NY., August 22, 1912." Medal etching is sharp and highly attractive.

General George H. Sharpe was initially a captain in the 120th New York, who later became its commanding Colonel, before being promoted to brevet general and to various staff assignments, ending with General Grant. The 120th New York-"The Ulster Regiment"-was mustered in August 1862 and first saw action at Fredericksburg. Attached to the 3rd Corps, the unit thereafter participated in all the major battles of the Army of the Potomac. Upon its mustering out, the 120th had lost 384 men killed and mortally wounded and to disease---a casualty rate that easily placed the regiment in Fox's "Fighting Three Hundred" Union regiments. An excellent commemorative memento of the gallant hard fighting 120th New York.

WARTIME RIBBON - BRIG. GEN. NATHANIEL LYON

WARTIME RIBBON - BRIG. GEN. NATHANIEL LYON

Measures 2 1/8" x 4 5/8". Light green/blue with yellowing at edges. Small tear at upper right edge. "Vorwarts! [Forward!] / Thy Radicalism saved Missouri. / N. LYON / MAY 10, 1861. / Radicalism the only Salvation. / MAY 10, 1863."

Nathaniel Lyon was born on July 14, 1818, in Ashford, Connecticut. After graduating from West Point in 1841, he fought in the Seminole and Mexican Wars. In the 1850s, he was a captain stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas. A Democrat with few beliefs about slavery, his experiences in the tense political climate of "Bleeding Kansas" led him to become a strong anti-slavery Republican. Transferred to Missouri in 1861, he was concerned about the conflict in the state between the pro-Union legislature and the pro-Confederate governor, Claiborne F. Jackson. When Jackson called out the state militia, Lyon became suspicious. Lyon, disguised as a farm woman, spied on the militia's camp, and came to the conclusion that Jackson intended to use the militia to capture the St. Louis arsenal for the Confederacy. In reaction, Lyon boldly, but with poor timing, surrounded the camp with captured it. When Lyon's troops displayed the prisoners through the town, a riot broke out. By saving the arsenal, however, Lyon did a great deal to keep Missouri part of the Union. Promoted to brigadier general on May 17, 1861, he began a serious effort to push Confederate troops out of Mississippi. On August 10, 1861, Confederate troops lay in wait at Wilson's Creek, and engaged Lyon's troops in battle. Lyon was killed in the battle; and, although it had been a bloody, inconclusive battle, it was declared a Confederate victory. Lyon's death at Wilson's Creek at the age of 43 made him the first Union general to die in battle during the Civil War.

FINE U.C.V. BADGE FROM THE 19TH REUNION AT MEMPHIS

FINE U.C.V. BADGE FROM THE 19TH REUNION AT MEMPHIS

Here is a choice example of an original United Confederate Veteran's suspension badge as worn by its members at the UCV Reunion in Memphis, Tennessee on June 8-10, 1909. Reddish bronze-colored metal was used to produce this fine, two-piece suspension badge device. The top piece of this wonderful badge resembles a wide-brimmed bowler's hat and features a pair of crossed Confederate battle flags (St Andrew's style) in the upper crown. The word "MEMPHIS" in 1/8th" high block letters is found directly below the flags and over the stamped reunion date. A small, circular clip or wire ring is connected to the top piece and suspends the second piece of the badge. This component is a 1" diameter disc embossed with a raised-relief bust view of Confederate General Albert Sydney Johnston. Protruding from the outer edges of the disc are five angled horizontal wedges, each embossed with data on the reunion. They read clockwise from the 7 o'clock position with "19th" / "UNITED" / "CONFEDERATE" / "VETERANS" / "REUNION"." Entire badge measures just over 3" long and was made by the Whitehead and Hoag Company of Newark, New Jersey. A very attractive and distinct looking badge device that would make a wonderful addition to any Civil War insignia display or United Confederate Veteran military collection.

GROUPING OF REUNION RIBBONS FROM THREE CIVIL WAR PENNSYLVANIA REGIMENTS

GROUPING OF REUNION RIBBONS FROM THREE CIVIL WAR PENNSYLVANIA REGIMENTS

This fine grouping of reunion ribbons and momentos represents a memorial to past members of the 28th Pennsylvania infantry, the 147th Pennsylvania infantry, and to Knapp's Battery. Set in a riker box, the entire grouping consists of two silk ribbons, three pin or celluloid disc badges, one metal ladder badge, two gold bullion slouch hat cords and what appears to be a felt arm band.

The larger ribbon made of red silk measures 5½" long x 1½" wide and has a brass pin bar at the top. Superimposed upon the ribbon is a large 5-pointed silver star surrounded by gold-colored markings of "28th & 147th / REGIMENTS / AND / KNAP'S BATTERY / PENN. VOLS. / RE-UNION / 1899." Silk suffers from a dime-size gouge torn out on the right edge and a separation at one crease. Second reunion ribbon is of medium blue silk with no pin bar. Specimen measures 5½" long x 2" wide and features a large white 5-pointed star at the top with gold lettering below that reads "FIFIETH ANNIVERSARY / of the / Battle of Gettysburg / JULY 1-2-3, / 1863 - 1913 / ASSOCIATION / of the / 28TH & 147TH Penna. / VETERAN INFANTRY / & KNAP'S PENN." Silk ribbon suffers from a complete separation about midway.

A very fine, silver 'ladder suspension badge' is included and exhibits four silver scroll bars that read "CO. G / 28 / PENN / VOL, INF.". Badge in excellent condition with edge tooled bars, a chain drop with bullion tassels and a strong pin bar. One pin badge disc wears the white star and displays three smaller, narrow silk ribbons on it that represent the 28th, 147th and Knaps Battery "E". Words "GETTYSBURG", "SEPT. 27" and "1910" are printed on the ribbons. One ribbon (Sept 27) has almost separated in two. The two celluloid disc badges each have attached a red, white and blue ribbon with printed words "John F. Godfrey" (red), "W. R. C. No. 43" (white) and "SEPT. 9TH 1912 / Pasadena, California" (blue). Both 1¼" diameter celluloid discs shows a spreadwinged eagle below the letters 'G.A.R.', all in color.

Two, individual, gold bullion officer-style hat cords with gold bullion acorns in very fine condition are included along with a 14" long by 3½" wide, black felt cloth arm band in excellent condition. Band is decorated with four, white, ½" wide stripes that alternate with three black stripes. Center portion of the band exhibits an imprint of the Great Seal of Pennsylvania in an oval ring.

A very fine grouping of post war re-union ribbons and memorabilia from three of Pennsylvania's veteran Civil War regiments.

GAR CABINET PHOTO OF MEMBER OF BERDAN'S SHARPSHOOTERS

GAR CABINET PHOTO OF MEMBER OF BERDAN'S SHARPSHOOTERS

Nice bust view of Joseph Mills wearing his GAR uniform with kepi. On his chest he wears two medals and two ribbons. One medal is a GAR membership badge with Sgt. Maj. Stripes at the top instead of the standard eagle. He may have been the Sgt. at Arms for his GAR Post. One ribbon can be partially made out to read "Detroit" at top and at middle in large letters "Berdan's." The other ribbon has a large metal pin at top with GAR in a scroll but the rest is too faint to make out. Photographers mark is "M. A. Murdoch, Windsor, Ont." Windsor, Ont. Is just across the US Canadian border from Detroit. Mills probably had this photo taken at the Detroit reunion. Back has photographers imprint and in pen is "Joseph Mills." Photo is in good condition with light surface aging. Item comes with partial pension records.

Joseph Mills was 27 years old and living in Hopkinton, New Hampshire when he enlisted as a Private in Co. F, 2nd Regt. U.S.S.S. He became ill in late 1861 and was discharged for disability on March 24, 1862. He was born in Weare and lived in Douglass, Mass. after the war.
