Research Note
In the Dog River Channel Payroll and this one, the numbering system does not go from 1-63 or 1-64. They start at a higher number. Since both of these payrolls begin in December 1862 with the same quarter master, it might be worthwhile to see if the other payrolls similar to these have a beginning to this system.
