William Henry Tallmadge, Rutgers College, New Jersey, Class of 1833
I am seeking information on William Henry Tallmadge, Rutgers College, New Jersey, Class of 1833. He was born and buried in Poughkeepsie, NY. He also lived in Alabama for a time.
There is a line in his Rutgers file that states he was a "colonel in state militia", but I cannot seem to find out what militia they were referring to. Perhaps pre Civil War, during the Civil War, or post Civil War?
Can anyone clear up this mystery?
Bob
