If anyone has any information on this soldier please feel free to contact me I am trying to make the connection. Thank you

John G Holme from Salem New Jersey was my great great grandfather (grandfather's grandfather).

Does anyone have information on photographs of this regiment?

Robert Crouch Parvin was part of the 24th New Jersey Infantry, Company I. He was issued a Belgian Rifle. Though poorly educated in rural New Jersey, Robert was good about writing home. A number of letters to his mother and to his sweetheart, Callie Smith, are still in existence. Several, written while his unit was bivouacked on the Mall in Washington, tell of visiting the Army hospital in the U. S. Patent Office and seeing the Monitor docked at the Potomac River, and of revivals and prayer meetings held in the tents. After leaving Washington, the regiment went on to fight in the battle of Fredericksburg, VA., in December 1862, and in the battle of Chancellorsville in May of 1863. The regiment was mustered out at Beverly, New Jersey, the following month, and Robert went home to marry Callie by whom he had six children. Soon after the war, Robert became interested in the possibilities of mechanizing the farm. Robert would go on to invent the first successful Steam Plow.

Capt William Coffin Shinn was from Camden County, NJ. He was elected Captain of the 24th NJ Vol Inf Co. I. On 13 Dec 1862, he was severely wounded leading a charge at the Battle of Fredericksburg, VA. After his recouperation, he rejoined the 24th NJ Vol Inf Co. I, remaining until his service time came to a end.

1st Lt James S. Woodward was from Camden County, NJ. He was elected 2nd Lt and received promotion to 1st Lt due to officer shortages after the Battle of Fredericksburg, VA in December 1862. He ultimately became my ancestor in 1900 when he married the sister of Capt William Coffin Shinn after the death of her first husband.

served August 30, 1862 to June 29, 1863
