Military[1] 4th United States Colored Cavalry Companies H and K
Military? 55th Massachusetts

Which military record? I am leaning toward thinking the 55th Mass. since the record says Spencer White of Union Township (OH). The 55th Massachusetts was the same regiment that Paul Laurence Dunbar's father was in (Joshua Dunbar). https://www.werelate.org/wiki/Person:Joshua_Dunbar_(1) slw
