History of Battery E, First Rhode Island Infantry

The official history of Battery E, First Rhode Island Infantry, has numerous references to Capt. Bucklyn (a whole group of pages about him starting at page 401).  Briefly stated, the military career of Bucklyn can be stated as follows

JOHN K. BUCKLYN commanded Battery E from May 15, 1863, to April 26, 1864.

We have an electronic copy of the entire 600 page history of Battery E during the Civil War.  It  describes the military history of the entire Battery including their daily activities, both in times of calm and also during the 45 (45!) battles in which they participated. If you are a Civil War buff, you will want to read this. The book is, we believe, in the public domain, and we maintain a complete electronic copy of the History of Battery E, First Rhode Island Infantry, here for your to read.

Bucklyn is mentioned in the following pages of the official history of Battery E of the First Regiment of Rhode Island Light Artillery.  We have that history book available for you to see here.  View pages  4 12, 30, 38, 43, 44, 47. 51, 66, 103, 108, 124. 134, 135, 147, 156, 162. 163, 169, 170, 171• 175, 177, 178, 180, 181, 194, 200, 205, 206, 208, 209, 212, 214, 215, 223, 229. 232, 233, 237, 241, 242, 246, 249, 25 1, 252, 254 257, 258, 261, 262, 272. 274. 276, 217,278, 279, 280, ;281, 369. 381 , 384. 392; 401, 437,471, 472,473,474.
