On this page you will find 91, Michigan Solders and their records. These names cover many regiments. Historical records states that the Steamer Sultana exploded on July 27, 1865. However on this page you will notice many different months and dates, but they all have one thing in common, they were all on the Sultana when it exploded.
Although this is to be a list of the dead, not all were killed in the explosion. One lived through it, and one or two others drowned before the explosion.
