Excerpt from Yonkers in the Rebellion of 1861-1865 N preparing this memorial volume, the authors have aimed to furnish as complete a history of yonkers IN the rebellion as the available material made possible - as well as a full history of the erection of the Monument which has been placed in front of Manor Hall, by the liberality and patriotism of the people, and which is intended to honor those identified with our town who faced the enemies of the Union in a long and desperate Rebellion. To insure correctness, the authors consulted State archives, local records, and many persons who were actors in the stirring events of the time.
