Excerpt from History of the Forty-Ninth New York Volunteers On July 30, 1861, at the request of the President of the United States, Honorable Edwin Dennison Morgan, Governor of the State of New York, issued his proclamation for the recruiting of twenty-five regiments of infantry of not more than one thousand men each. On the 31st of July the Union Defense Committee of the City of Buffalo consisting of the patriotic citizens of that city represented by Mayor Franklin A. Alberger, James Adams, Isaac Holloway and other prominent citizens, procured authority from the Governor of the State to recruit a regiment for immediate service. Temporary headquarters were established at James Adams and Company's store on Washington street, and Daniel Davidson Bidwell, a prominent military man of the city, was placed in charge of the affairs of the new organization. Active recruiting was at once commenced. About August 12th, under permission of the War Department, the grounds and buildings at Fort Porter were occupied as headquarters. Barracks and other buildings were erected, tents put up, and the long deserted and neglected place assumed a military aspect, visited by many citizens and friends of volunteers already there and by many men coming in and voluntarily offering their services. Nine companies were recruited, principally in the following counties: Companies A, G, I and K in Chautauqua county; Companies B, D, E and F in Erie county, and Company H in Niagara county. By the 23d of August one company from Chautauqua county had arrived. Captain Plogstead had a goodly number in camp. Haines, Selkirk, Tillinghast, Bullymore and others were actively at work. Clothing had been received and issued. Drilling was commenced and guards mounted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
