notes.--The One Hundredth was recruited in
Buffalo, and on March 7, 1862, started from there, 960 strong, arriving at
Washington March 12th.
It embarked on March 21st for
Fort Monroe, where it joined
General McClellan's Army, having been assigned to
Naglee's (1st) Brigade,
Casey's (2d) Division, Fourth Corps.
Colonel Brown was killed at
Fair Oaks, after which
Colonel George B. Dandy, of the
Regular Army, was assigned to the command of the regiment.
The One Hundredth was present at all the operations in
Charleston Harbor in June, 1863, and, under command of
Colonel Dandy, shared in the desperate assault on
Fort Wagner.
In this action the regiment behaved with signal gallantry, and although the attack was unsuccessful, the flag of the One Hundredth--the one presented by the Board of Trade,
Buffalo — was planted on the fort, the daring color-sergeant falling dead beside it. In May, 1864--then in
Plaisted's (3d) Brigade,
Terry's (1st) Division, Tenth Corps--the regiment sailed up the
James River with
Butler's Army, and was subsequently engaged in all its battles.
In December, 1864 the Tenth Corps was discontinued, and the regiment became a part of
Plaisted's (3d) Brigade,
Foster's (1st) Division, Twenty-fourth Corps.
At the
Fall of
Petersburg, April 2, 1865, it made a gallant and successful assault on Fort Gregg, in which
Major James H. Dandy, an able and meritorious officer, was killed.
In July, 1865, the regiment was consolidated with the One Hundred and Forty-eighth and One Hundred and Fifty-eighth New York Volunteers, and on August 28th, following, was mustered out of service.
