Cemeteries Outside New Orleans
Outlines records in the collection dealing with Cemeteries outside of New Orleans.
Records burials in several different arrangements: volume 1, by rank/state of regiment/branch of service; vol. 2, by square number in the cemetery; and volumes 3 and 4, alphabetically by name of the deceased. The microfilm begins with a typescript “index,” giving names alphabetically and year of death. It is unclear how much duplication occurs among the various volumes.
A second series of microfilm from the U.S. Army Office of the Quartermaster General also records burials at “Monument Cemetery” (i.e., Chalmette National Cemetery). These records are labeled “Abstracts of Interments at ‘Monument Cemetery,’ New Orleans, La. and cover the period 1864-1868, inclusively. The records also include a “Record Sheet of Disinterments.” Again, it is unclear how much duplication occurs among the various volumes.
