Does anyone have easy access to one of the Registers of the US Military Academy (West Point) that goes back to the 1840s, like one of the decade issues?
Our library doesn't have it, and I could interlibrary loan it, but if someone has access to do one quick look-up, I'd greatly appreciate it.
I'm looking for George B. Fitzgerald, born in 1828 and graduated by the Mexican War, so he was probably Class of 1844, '45, '46 or '47. His residence would have been Virginia or possibly District of Columbia.
I'm curious to know what year he graduated and anything about him that it includes, service record, where he graduated in his class, etc. I've got his service information from the Historical Register and Dictionary of the United States Army, but haven't been able to find what year he graduated West Point or how well he did there, though I have reason to believe he did attend the academy.
Thank you!
