This volume contains the official roster, general orders, and proceedings of the Department of Pennsylvania, Grand Army of the Republic. It offers a detailed record of the activities and membership of this important organization of Civil War veterans.

The Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) was a fraternal organization composed of veterans of the Union Army, Navy, and Marine Corps who served in the American Civil War. Founded in 1866, it became one of the first organized advocacy groups in American politics, supporting voting rights for black veterans, promoting patriotic education, and lobbying Congress to establish veterans' pensions. This book provides invaluable insight into the GAR's activities in Pennsylvania, documenting its role in commemorating the war and advocating for its members. A valuable resource for historians and genealogists interested in the Civil War and its aftermath.
