This is the Discharge record for my great-grandfather, Francis Maloney. He was a member of the 54th Infantry Regiment, New York National Guard and commanded Company "I" of the regiment. Later he was promoted to Major and served as the Regimental Major. The 54th Infantry Regiment was mustered into the US Army in July 1864 and was mustered out in November of the same year. The 5th Regiment served as guards at the Prisoner of War camp in Elmira, NY.
