    ID Stencil from 55th Massachusetts burial site "HARRISON PERIL CO K 55TH MASS"

    I dug this identification stencil at the burial site that I discovered the 19 African American soldiers of the 55th Massachusetts Volunteers.

    It reads;

    HARRISON PERIL CO. K. 55TH REG. MASS. V.

    It is one of the rarest relics I have dug.

    Hey Robert!
    That is a wonderful historic find there! Do you know if he made it through the war? I hope you got my PM last week. You have made some great finds my friend!
