  • A - Resignation sent to President A. Lincoln. Mimeographed copies of handwritten formal documents and one typewritten copy of a document on file. 7 leaves, 6 March 1863.
  • This is a problematic set of papers.

  • F - Letter-believed to be from Burns by handwriting comparison-to unknown General. The letter discusses an accompanying campaign document (not with the letter) and references individuals who could either hinder or help. Handwritten letter, no signature. 1 leaf, 21 October 1864.

  • O - Commission Notice. Form notification from Adjutant General's Office of Burns' being appointed Assistant Commissary General of Subsistence with the rank of Lieutenant Col. Printed form filled-in blanks, 1 leaf, 16 February 1875.
  • P - List of Officers of the Subsistence Department. The printed list includes the name of William W. Burns under Lieutenant-Colonels and as "Chief C. S. Mil Division of the Pacific and the Department of California. Purchasing and Depot C. S. at San Francisco." Printed list, 1 leaf, 1 May 1876.
  • Q - Memorandum from the War Department. The memo is a printed form with blanks to be filled-in concerning missing information on actions in the civil war. This requests information from Burns on the Siege of Yorktown. A printed piece with handwriting, 1 leaf, 28 August 1876.

S1-1/5: This folder contains the following documents,

  • A - Unsigned letter to Committee on Military Affairs from Burns. Possibly a draft of a letter-in Burns' handwriting but unsigned. Handwritten, 1 leaf, circa 1880.
  • B - Letter from Burns to W. S. Hancock. Lengthy letter of explanation of "what happened" concerning his promotion, or lack thereof. Handwritten, 3 leaves, circa 1880.

  • D - Letter from Burns to General W. L. Sherman. Another appeal concerning Burns' non-appointment. Handwritten letter, 1 leaf, February 1881.
  • E - Letter to Burns from General W. L Sherman. An apparent response to item 1/55. Handwritten letter, 2 leaves, 20 February 1881.
  • F - Letter from M. Halstead to W. W. Burns. The letter is a copy of another, presumably, because it is in Burns' handwriting. 1 leaf, 11 June 1881.

Printed notice of retirement from active duty "by command of Major General Schofield: Chauncy McKeever, Acting Adjutant General." *NOTE: Backside of notice has a lengthy handwritten statement in what seems like that of an older person… in pencil.

Printed and Handwritten in pencil, 1 leaf, 4 September 1889.
  • N - Retrospective narrative of Burns' career. Written in the third person, this incomplete narrative was written by Burns (judging from the handwriting). Handwritten. 1 sheet, 2 leaves, 2 pages, circa 1889.
  • O - "Extract from Cincinnati Commercial." Burns apparently copied a portion of a news article from the newspaper. Handwritten, 1 leaf, Undated.
  • P - Incomplete letter from Burns; receiver unknown. The narrative concerns a battle at Malvern. Handwritten. 1 sheet, 2 leaves, 1 page, Undated.
  • Q - Statement in Burns' handwriting concerning his retirement. Reads like a draft of a legislative resolution. Handwritten, 1 leaf, Undated.

  • X - "Salient Points to Peninsular Campaigns." Memorandum written by Burns. Handwritten, 1 leaf, 1 page, Undated.
  • Y - Personal statement. It seems to be a portion of something larger…narrative of Burns' career. Judging by the T-bars in the handwriting, this is a match to that in 1/64 and is most likely not that of Burns. Handwritten page, 2 leaves, Undated.
  • Z - Personal statement. Narrative written by Burns. Handwritten page. 1 leaf, Undated.
  • AA - "Etat de service in Command of Volunteer Troops…." A lengthy partial chronology of Burns' war-time career (1861-1863). Handwritten, 2 Sheets, 8 leaves, 8 pages, Undated.
