When Schuyler, Hartley, & Graham bought at auction all of the Fenian Breech-loaders(Needham Conversions) and parts confiscated from the Fenians a number of them were sold to small militia units and G.A.R. post.
There are a number of Needham Conversions in this site that have specific numbers and/or badges that are believed(by me) to be militia, prison or G.A.R. This section will show the Needhams with the numbering and badges.
Images are grouped by locations of numbers stamped on Needham.
