In addition to their mustering in roll, only two other muster rolls for Company C survived to be incorporated in the compiled service records. These two are noted below for Robert Daniels.

Inasmuch as musters for pay were held bi-monthly, at least six other musters were held. Robert could very well have returned to the regiment which was quite common for men to return after very extended periods of time.

Also, missing are the intervening seven musters, we do not know when Robert was hospitalized and subsequently furloughed for some unspecified time. The one Regimental Return records him hospitalized at L. R., December, 1862.*

He very well have died at home with that information not known at the regiment.

In James Goff's records, there is correspondence between the Adjutant General, War Department, with the Oklahoma Board of Pension Commissioners, dated August 5, 1915. This would have been in reference to an application for a pension, either for himself, or his widow. The application should record two fellow soldiers attesting to his service. These papers may provide some of the information you seek.

* At the National Archives in Washington, DC, are records for the Rock Hotel Hospital (Little Rock), which contain a register of patients, Nov. 14, 1862-June 3, 1863. I have no idea if this would have been the hospital to which they were admitted, nor details of what they contain.
