  • Help with Official Records Notation

    In the example below there are a number of notations such as (++), (E), (**), etc. Where do I find the meaning of these notations is the OR?

    Maine Light, 4th Battery (D),(++) Capt. Charles W. White.
    Maine Light, 6th Battery (F), (sq) Capt. William H. Rogers.
    Massachusetts Light, 5th Battery (E), (||) Bvt. Maj. Charles A. Phillips.
    Massachusetts Light, 9th Battery, (p) Capt. Richard S. Milton.
    Massachusetts Light, 14th Battery, (p) Capt. Joseph W. B. Wright.
    New Jersey Light, 3d Battery, (**) Bvt. Maj. Christian Woerner.
    1st New York Light, Battery C,(||) Capt. David F. Ritchie.
    1st New York Light, Battery E, (||) Lieut. George H. Barse.
    1st New York Light, Battery G,(**) Capt. Samuel A. McClellan.

      Thank you Hank. I guess the guys who produced the CD set decided I wouldn't need that information.

        uh oh

        Which set? I thought the Guild Press version was just PDFs of the actual pages. Asking because I'm still debating getting a copy
