Union Ordnance Returns

The Union Ordnance Returns come from NARA Microfilm M1281: Summary Statements of Quarterly Returns of Ordnance and Ordnance Stores on Hand in Regular and Volunteer Army Organizations, 1862-1867, 1870-1876, Roll 7, which contains the number and types of weapons of each infantry unit in the Union Army broken down by company for the period of April-June 1864, or 2nd Quarter 1864.  This roll may be purchased directly from the NARA for $85 (microfilm) or $125 (images on CD).  I’ll be offering transcriptions of these items grouped by state with purchase prices ranging from only $1.99 up to $16.99 depending on how many regiments a state had at the Siege of Petersburg, and $24.99 for transcriptions of the armament of every Union infantry unit which participated in the Siege of Petersburg and was present on June 30, 1864.  Ultimately, you can pay $25 for my transcription of an item which costs three-five times as much if you purchase the microfilm itself directly from the NARA.  Please note that regiments which did not fight at Petersburg have not yet been transcribed.  I am willing to take requests for transcriptions of other regiments for a small fee, probably $1.99 per regiment.  Please Contact Me if you are interested.
