What does "stropped" mean in Union Civil War personnel records
Howdy, I sent off for the records of my great-great-grandpappy at the national archives and learned that he spent some time guarding a railroad in Tennessee and that he was "stropped the value of one bayonet". Does that mean he had to pay for it or does it mean he was whipped? Thanks so much, SS
