Medical Records
11th West Virginia Infantry Volunteers
These medical records were copied from the Medical Cards/Casualty Lists at the National Archives, Washington D.C. They are only a portion of the medical records for the 11th. Records will be added periodically when obtained. Each soldier had a medical card filled out for each and every time a casualty card was received. These casualty cards were filled out from casualty lists, often after each battle, or during a company muster when the absence of a soldier was noted. Therefore, duplicate entries for one soldier would show each medically excused absence.
