Notes
These "compiled service records consist of a jacket-envelope for each soldier, labeled with his name, his rank, and the unit in which he served. The jacket-envelope typically contains (1) card abstracts of entries relating to the soldier as found in original muster rolls, returns, and occasionally pay vouchers; and (2) the originals of any papers relating solely to the particular soldier. There are cross reference jacket-envelopes for soldiers' names that appear in the records under more than one spelling."--Introd.
