Casualty List 63rd New York

“Bloody Lane” Antietam September 17, 1862

This list was prepared from a photocopy of an original casualty list I found in the National Archives, Washington D. C., with entries from the “Annual Report of the Adjutant General of the State of New York,” 1901, which is the 63rd New York Volunteer Infantry unit roster, and other sources. The names are placed in the same order as they are in the original list, which is signed by Colonel Burke, comd., and is not dated. When there is a difference in spelling between the roster, and the list, I have used the name in the roster. D. P. Conyngham, “The Irish Brigade and its Campaigns,” gives us the following list: 5 officers killed, and 6 wounded. 31 enlisted men killed, and 158 wounded, for a total of 200 Frederick Phisterer, “New York in the War of the Rebellion,” gives us the following list: 4 officers killed, and 31 enlisted men. 3 officers died of wounds, and 26 enlisted men. 2 officers recovered, and 134 enlisted men. 2 enlisted men missing in action, for a total of 202. William F. Fox, “Regimental Losses in the Civil War,” gives us the following list: 341 men engaged, with 59 killed, 17%. 35 killed, 165 wounded, 2 missing, for a total of 202, of 341 engaged – 59.2% The Official Report of Lt. Colonel Henry Fowler is not dated. He states that “in an instant (enemy fire) killed or wounded every officer but one, and more than one-half the rank and file of the right wing.” In the early part of the action Captain P.J. Condon and Lieut. Thomas J. Cartwright, both of Company G, fell wounded while gallantly cheering on their men…as also Capt. M. O’Sullivan, Company F, while Lieut. P. W. Lydon, commanding Company D, Lieut. Cadwalader Smith, Company C, and Lieutenant McConnell, of Company K, bravely rallying the gallant remaining few, fell pierced by bullets, instantly fatal.” “Capt. Joseph O’Neill, Company A, whose company had fallen all around him on the right…” “..and here lay the slender form of Captain Kavanagh, Company I, cold in death..” “..and the gallant Lieut. George Lynch, second lieutenant, Company G, bravely pressing on until he, too, fell, mortally wounded.” “Major Bentley was now wounded, and retired to have his wound dressed. Our number now was less than 50 men...” “..16 men having fallen while carrying them (the colors).” “I now received a severe wound..” From the Official Report of Winfield Scott Hancock “Major R. C. Bentley (wounded) who commanded the 63d New York Volunteers, after Lieutenant-colonel Fowler was wounded..” “Captain Joseph O’Neil.. who commanded the 63d New York after both Colonel Fowler and Major Bentley were wounded.” The original list is entitled:

He was wounded at Antietam, September 17th, 1862, by a conoidal musket ball, which struck at the lower anterior angle of the right parietal, fractured both tables of the cranium, and lodged under the scalp in the occipital region. The scalp was lacerated, and a dark pulsating mass protruded in the wound. The left side of the body was paralyzed. The patient’s mental facilities were unimpaired. On September 29th, flaps of integument were reflected by a T – shaped incision. The ball and a number of fragments of bone were removed, some of the latter being imbedded in the brain substance. The inner table was found badly splintered, but the fracture of the external table was still more extensive. The protruding cerebral mass was shaved off. The rough edges of the fractured bone were smoothed by cutting forceps. The following day the paralysis was more complete than before the operation. There was severe headache. The pulse was slow and weak. On October 3d, the fungus was sprouting and sloughing. The left arm was power- less; the paralysis of the left leg was less complete. On October 4th, the hernia was again sliced off and gentle compression was applied. There was great irritability and restlessness. On October 21st, the patient had improved. His appetite was voracious. He was less irritable and the hemiplegia was much less complete. He was very sensitive to cold. The temperature of the left side was lower than that of the

right. The fungus was the size of a pigeon’s egg. On November 17th, a dilation of the left pupil was first noticed. Sensation in the left leg and partial control of the muscles had returned. Since the last report the tumor of the brain had continued to grow and slough away, so that it remained about the same size. On December 7th, the report states that little change had taken place, except a gradual amelioration of the hemiplegia, and improvement in regard to the fretfulness and irritability. On this day there was a severe chill. After this the patient never regained his accustomed readiness and clearness of mind. The discharge from the wound became watery, unhealthy, and more copious. There was an exacerbation of fever every afternoon. On December 17th, there was a severe convulsion which lasted half an hour, and was terminated by death. At the autopsy, an irregular portion of the right parietal, four inches in diameter, was found to be necrossed and detached. The dura mater was much thickened in the vicinity of the fracture, and was adherent to the margins of the healthy bone. Except in the immediate vicinity of the hernia, the brain matter appeared to be in a healthy state. Assistant Surgeon R. F. Weir, U. S. A.., reported the case.” Two drawings accompany the text, Figs. 153 and 154. External and internal view of gunshot fracture of right parietal, followed by necrosis. Spec. 3859, Sect. I, A. M. M.

H, 63d New York Volunteers, aged 32 years, received two gunshot wounds at Antietam, Maryland, September 17, 1862. One ball entered the back between the eighth and ninth ribs, left side, half-way between the angle and the junction with the costal cartilage,

and lodged; the other entered two inches posterior of anterior superior spinous process of the ilium of left side and lodged in the gluteal muscles. He was at once conveyed to the field hospital of the Second Corps, where water dressings were applied. On September 30th, he was transferred to the hospital at Frederick, Maryland. Previous to admission, the patient did not complain of cough or pain in the chest. On October 5th, a ball could be distinctly felt beneath the nipple, but as the patient was quite weak from profuse suppuration from the wound in the gluteal region, the removal of the ball by excision was deferred. October 8th, burrowing of pus among the gluteal muscles and accumulation of gas. An incision was made an inch above the folds of the nates; but little evacuation of pus. Poultice ordered. On the 12th, another incision was made just below the crest of the ilium and a seton passed through the wound of entrance. The patient seemed much prostrated, but had no cough or expectoration. Tonics and stimulants administered. On the night of the 13th, he expectorated a small quantity of blood, and, on the next day, complained of pain in the chest where the ball had lodged. On examining the chest, a tumor was found to extend from the left nipple downward and inward for two inches, and of the same dimensions in breadth. On applying the ear to the tumor, a sound was heard resembling the passage of air, with a small quantity of liquid, through a slight opening. Tumor tympanic on percussion; respiration but slightly embarrassed, but patient very restless. The tumor continued to increase, and the patient failed rapidly, notwithstanding the free administration of stimulants; death occurred on the morning of October 17, 1862. Necropsy: Rigor mortis well marked. Body considerably emaciated. On laying open the wound on the posterior portion of the chest, the ninth rib was found fractured at that point. On dissecting up the skin over the tumor, some extravasation of blood was found underneath. No opening where the ball could have entered the chest could be found, and it seemed probable that it had passed externally, glancing on the ninth rib, yet no external track was visible. The pericardium over the apex of the heart was adherent to the ribs. Recent pleuritic adhesions on both sides, and left lung adherent to ribs for a large space, where the ball was found underneath. Missile had ulcerated through the intercostal muscle into the lung and was found resting against the diaphragm at the bottom of a large abscess which contained air and pus. Pieces of clothing and bone were also discovered in the diaphragm. The pathological specimen, showing a wet preparation of a portion of the left lung adherent to sections of the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth ribs, is represented in the wood-cut (Fig. 235), and was contributed, with a history of the case, by Acting Assistant Surgeon Alfred North. (It must be understood that the ball entered posteriorly between the eighth and ninth ribs, on a level with the sixth rib anteriorly. The description of its course is not very clear. If it did not fracture the rib, whence came the bits of bone found imbedded in the diaphragm?).” “Fig. 235 Segments of anterior portion of ribs, with condensed portion of upper lobe of left lung, with a round ball, which lay against the diaphragm.

Conyngham, page 568 “Captain John Kavanagh was born in Dublin about the year 1826, and was married there on the 11th June, 1847, to Miss Nannie Frances Byrne. Though quite young he became an active member of the Irish Confederation, and was unanimously chosen president of the Fitzgerald Club, Dublin. He was a devoted, zealous patriot, and was ably sustained by the patriotic enthusiasm and deep affection of his devoted young wife. After the suspension of the habeas corpus act he followed the fortune of Smith O’Brien in Tipperary, and was rather severely wounded in the leg at the Farrinrory fiasco. As soon as he was able to travel he made his way to Havre, and even there the English authorities made numerous efforts to arrest him. He fled to America, where he arrived in the fall of 1848. Here he was joined by his lovely, faithful wife and child. Captain Kavanagh was one of the principal organizers of the Thirty-seventh Regiment New York Volunteers. He was subsequently transferred to the command of Company I, Sixty-third Regiment, Irish Brigade, in conformity with his own desire to serve under his friend and fellow-exile, General Meagher. He was a most energetic and fearless officer. He fell at the head of his company, in the heat of action, in the great battle of Antietam, on the 17th of September. Captain Kavanagh had won for himself the enthusiastic devotion of a numerous circle of friends. He was comparatively a young man, less than thirty-seven years of age; of medium height; slender, but sinewy frame; fair complexion; and of prompt, decisive mental habits. Had he lived, he would have carved out a bright career as a soldier, for few were so brave or thoroughly devoted to his profession, and few possessed nobler or more generous qualities.

children.” John Kavanagh is buried in Calvary Cemetery, Woodside, Long Island, New York, as John Cavanaugh, in Section 4 Range or Avenue 6 Plot V Grave Number 9. Martin McMahon age 40 years.

Do not print this page, or, if you print it, do not add it to your copy of this casualty list. This is just a list of things for me to do in the future, to add to, and improve, this list. Check with original, line by line, word for word. Check MSHWR entries, they should read the same in this list. Check with original casualty list: Rank, and Nature of wound. Check with burial lists, and add to burial information at the end of this list. Add burial information as it is in the burial lists Check Roll of Honor list, Mount Olivet Cemetery, Frederick, Md. There is a lot of information in the 63rd Regiment New York Volunteer Newspaper Clippings. Add it to this list There is a casualty list in Newspaper Clippings. It is very different from the casualty list I have above, mostly at the end. Where does this list come from? There is no statement about what newspaper, or date. It must have been made shortly after the battle. Find, and add, information from New York Times casualty list. Add information from the four dead found at Antietam – one was thought to be a member of the 63rd.
