Orange J. Abbey - Corporal
|
Actually, Orange Abby was a member of the 154th New York VOLUNTEERS, but that was not a choice in the 'Unit Types' options. He was captured at Gettysburg, force marched to Andersonville Prison in Georgia, where he died of acute dysentery. My information comes from a personal letter from the administrator of the Hardtack Regiment website.
