All the names on this list, with the exception of the three USMC personnel, John Rannahan, John Shivers, and Henry Thompson, have been transcribed from a copy of the Muster Roll of the vessel, the original of which is held at the National Archives. All personnel named were enlisted men, as the officers were listed on a separate roll. The roll did not include USMC personnel, and the three names listed above were added from a separate source, as they were known to be aboard the vessel at the time of the completion of this roll.
The USS Minnesota was a wooden steam frigate, originally commissioned in May 1857, and, after some service with the East India Squadron, decommissioned at the Boston Navy Yard in mid 1859. She was recommissioned on May 2, 1861, and was involved in a number of major battles including the ironclad affair at Hampton Roads in March, 1862. During the second assault of Fort Fisher, North Carolina, in January, 1865, a landing force of 240 men from the vessel assisted in the attack upon the fort, resulting in a number of Naval and Marine Corps personnel from the vessel being awarded the Medal of Honor. A month later the vessel was ordered to Portsmouth, New Hampshire, where she was decommissioned.
The following list shows names followed by rating, date of enlistment, place of enlistment, term of enlistment, place or vessel from which received; place of birth, state of which a citizen (where shown), age, occupation, color of eyes, color of hair, complexion, and in some instances, additional remarks. It should be noted that many of the men who enlisted aboard this vessel were taken from the Union Army, and transferred to Naval service part of the way through their term of enlistment. A small number of Army personnel who had served in the 48th New York Infantry, and who are listed as having transferred over to the Navy are named here. Additional notes from other sources have been included for some personnel, and are shown in italics; the reference source for this data is included at the end of the list of names.
A recapitulation on the last page of the rolls shows a total of 562 names, and the approval on that page is signed by Commodore Joseph Lanman.
