We are a research group dedicated to bringing to light,
the history of New York's famous Civil War regiment, the 62nd NYSV "Anderson Zouaves."
This site
represents fifteen years of research conducted by our members and overseas colleagues and has crucially involved information
provided to us by family members of veterans. Unlike many American Civil War regiments, the 62nd NYSV does not have a known
existent regimental history. Much of what we present to you on this site are the fragments of this history, drawn together
from many and disperate sources.
We have strived to attribute our sources as fully as we can, where we
have failed to attribute correctly, please take the time to inform us. If you use any information from this website, we would
ask that you attribute our group as your source. We have obtained permissions from various organisations and individuals to
display images or to reproduce copy, please respect these organisations and individuals and seek their permissions.
I would take the opportunity to acknowledge the immense amount of work undertaken by Mr. John Tierney in researching
the 62nd NYSV. Much of his work is the basis for our current understanding of this regiment. I would also like to acknowledge
the pioneering work of Mr. Bill Lincoln, whose early work on the 62nd NYSV, uncovered many of the photographs of veterans
displayed on this website.
