Description
This is an 1844 Muster of all NY State Militia and National Guard organized as the 1st Artillery Division. The most famous unit in the muster was the Washington Greys so named because they marched in Washington’s first inaugural in New York City. By 1848 the units were largely re-organized with many of the soldiers re-assigned to the 8th NY Infantry Regiment during the Civil War. Today the 258th Field Artillery traces its roots back to the Washington Greys. Dimensions: Framed 28" height 36" Length
