Dear bomar4548-ga;

Thank you for allowing me an opportunity to answer your interesting question.

M233 is a set of 81 microfilm rolls called ?Registers of Enlistments
in the United States Army, 1796-1914?.  The information on these rolls
was compiled from enlistment papers, muster rolls of the Regular Army
and other records.  In some cases, these records are the only
surviving source of information on military personnel serving in the
19th century.

Information on these rolls may include when and where the soldier
enlisted, the period of enlistment, his place of birth and age at the
time of enlistment, his civilian occupation, a brief physical
description, and his regiment.  Records are arranged alphabetically by
surname, then chronologically. There are actually a couple of ways to
get copies of these rolls:



Rolls 25-81 of the National Archives microfilm set M233, Registers of
Enlistments in the United States Army, 1798-1914 are available in the
Special Collections Department of St. Louis County Library.
