Company K, Twentieth Regiment, Illinois Volunteer Infantry
Roster and Record
Free DownloadAt the last annual reunion of the association of the survivors of the 20th Illinois Regiment, held in Chicago September 8, 1893, I was assigned the duty of preparing a roster of Company K. This little publication is the result of my efforts to perform that duty.
