Andrew:

    The New York, U.S. Civil War Muster Roll Abstracts, 1861-1900 - https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/552722:1965 - says Dayton Palmer was born in Northumberland, Vermont.

    On the other hand, the New York, U.S. Registers of Officers and Enlisted Men Mustered Into Federal Services, 1861-1865 - https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/5434/images/41756_343266-00448?treeid=&personid=&hintid=&queryId=8f1040487c98ad7ede18d25f1ae34ce4&usePUB=true&_phsrc=qcN39847&_phstart=successSource&usePUBJs=true&_ga=2.120777544.1103626375.1630453937-1426102163.1556485196&pId=81413 - has a Dayton Palmer born in Saratoga.

The U.S., Civil War Draft Records, 1863-1865 - https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/302145:1666 - also has a Dayton Palmer born in New York.

 Hope that helps.
