107th New York

 Volunteer Infantry
Red Star Division

3rd Brigade, 1st Division, 12th Army Corps
2nd Brigade, 1st Division, 12th/20th Army Corps

                        Lincoln's Banner Regiment
On August 15, 1862 this regiment was awarded a banner by
President Abraham Lincoln for being the first unit to reach
Washington in answer to his call for an additional 300,000 men.

The President reviewed the regiment commenting, "That it was the
 best appearing regiment that he had ever seen in the service  save
for one, the Ellsworth regiment."
                         

Major General Henry Warner Slocum, commander of both the12th and 20th Army Corps.  In as much as the 107th New York Volunteer Infantry was assigned to both, they adopted as their slogan his answer to General Meade's question regarding the proper action for the Union Army at Gettysburg.             Slocum's Men: "Stay and Fight it out"

    This web page is dedicated to the memory of the brave men who served their country
    in the 107th New York Volunteer Infantry Regiment, and in particular to Lieut. Colonel
    William Freeman Fox, Lieutenant Frank Pomeroy Frost, Lieutenant Arthur S. Fitch
    and Lieutenant Harvey G. Denniston through whose dedication and diligence a record
    of its history is possible.
