The list begins:
I have the honor to submit also a copy of a Roll of Quantrills gang, which was found on one of his Sergeants, who was Killed in the action to
wit:... and it is signed Allow me to sign myself / Very Respectfully / Your most obedient Servant / (Signed) Henry J. Stierlin, /Capt. Co A & 1st Mo. Cav.,
/Comdg Batty.
The list includes some names of renown or notoriety: obviously William Clarke Quantrill, himself; George Todd, one of the most notorious of the group; Cole Younger (although spelled "Coal" on the list); William Gregg, who wrote about Jesse James after the war; James Vaugh also wrote a book, but claimed he was Jesse James. What is more striking, however, are the names not on the list. Only one of Quantrill's original "core" group, William Haller, is listed, as are only half of what was thought to be his next group of recruits - Jarrette, Gregg and Todd. It seems to be accepted that this list represents the earliest “incarnation” of Quantrill’s band.Every source indicates that there are no complete lists of all members of this notorious guerilla band. Men came and went throughout the war (other than those killed or wounded).
