Benjamin S. Cady served as a private with Company E
"There have been twenty-two hundred names on the muster rolls of the Ninety-Seventh. Today the Regiment has just twenty-five officers and 322 men left! Five-sixths of those who have fought with the Regimental flag, do not return with it at the end of the war! Probably five hundred of the original members of the Regiment belonged in Oneida County. Less than fifty of these come back with Col. SPOFFORD!"
He returned to Oneida county and was mustered out.
