Samuel E. Wyman	Mustered out with company, 13 July 1864. Civil War Veterans' Card File, 1861-1866: Age: 19; Occupation: Farmer; Residence: Clarion Co.; Hair: Brown; Eyes: Brown; Complexion: Dark; Height: 5' 9 3/4"

Not on muster-out roll indicates fate had not been determined at the close of the war, at which time these rolls were made out. In other company rosters, those who mustered in later than 25 July 1861 were listed as being transferred to the 155th Pennsylvania Volunteer Regiment, Infantry, but for Company C, no soldier is so listed. Those who died before first battle probably were victims of typhoid fever that became rampant during the fall and winter of 1861/62 while the regiment was stationed at Minor's Hill, Va.

The Veteran Reserve Corps, originally called the Invalid Corps, was the military body to which soldiers were transferred when they were not healthy enough to be sent back to their original unit, but not sick or disabled enough to be sent home.
