Details:

Official Civil War Muster-Out Roll completed for William C. Goodwin of Company F, 11th Regiment Maine Infantry Volunteers, documenting his discharge from United States service on October 7, 1865, following the conclusion of the Civil War. The large-format military form, completed in manuscript, records Goodwin’s enlistment and service details, age, rank, physical description, dates of service, pay information, and official certification by the mustering officer.

Of particular interest is the detailed manuscript notation in the remarks section, which chronicles Goodwin’s military career. The entry records that he was enlisted on August 31, 1864, as a Private, promoted to Corporal on March 17, 1865, reduced to the ranks on April 1, 1865, and transferred to Company H on June 24, 1865, before ultimately being mustered out at the expiration of his term of service. The document bears official military endorsements, signatures, and period validation stamps, preserving an important record of an individual Union soldier’s wartime service.

Measuring approximately 30 x 10.5 inches, the document displays expected fold lines from storage, scattered staining and foxing, edge wear, several small separations and losses along fold intersections, and minor paper toning.

The 11th Maine Infantry Regiment served with distinction in the Union Army from 1862 through the end of the Civil War, participating in numerous campaigns including the Peninsula Campaign, the Siege of Petersburg, and the Appomattox Campaign.
