BATTERY A, FIRST REGIMENT R.I. LIGHT ARTILLERY
NOTE: The following names were transcribed from the actual RI GAR Arnold Post No. 4 records available to us. The ID #s of each Veteran listed on this page are the "Post 4" ID #s as listed for each in the official Post 4 Roster Book, 1877 to 1930. The ID #s are not the ID #s that were issued to each GAR Veteran when they became a member of the Order. The Post 4 ID #s are therefore not the GAR Veteran ID # engraved on the edge of the GAR Membership Insignia. |

NOTE: The list of names on this page is complete.
However the background data is not finished.
As we continue our research on each
RI GAR Arnold Post No. 4 Veteran
we will keep updating this page
until all background data is complete.
