Memorial Park on Chester Road in Auburn, New Hampshire. Plaque on front gives a 1976 date for the memorial. Tablets on the north and west side honor the World War II and Korean/Vietnam War veterans (World War I is a separate memorial on a nearby boulder), while the south face holds a plaque for the Civil War Soldiers from Auburn.

Below are the 49 names listed on the above memorial plaque, with their regiments (when known) added below their names. 

Note: There are several men whose service records still need verifying. There were also several soldiers who were Auburn men that were somehow left off this tablet, including:
Sylvester E. Emery, 8th NH; Luther and Henry M. Preston, 1st NH HA

Burial places, as they are found, will be recorded in the following "virtual cemetery" on Find a Grave: Civil War Soldiers of Auburn, NH

This monument stands in East Derry, New Hampshire, on the grounds beside the First Parish Congregational Church. It stands 27 feet, 8 inches high, the pedestal made of blue Quincy granite, supporting the bronze statue of an infantryman on top. Bronze plates were embedded onto the four sides, inscribed with the names of 152 men who had served from Derry. Of these, 4 were listed as killed in action, 20 died while in service, and 128 were honorably discharged (an additional man was later added).

On Tuesday, October 1st, 1889, the schools of Derry were closed for the afternoon, allowing the scholars and teachers to attend the dedication of this new Soldiers' Monument at 2 o'clock. The N.H. G.A.R. was in charge of the ceremony, with numerous local Posts attending the event. They included Derry's Upton Post, No. 45; Wesley B. Knight Post, No. 41, of Derry Depot and Londonderry; Gilman E. Sleeper Post, No. 60, of Salem; Bell, No. 74, of Chester; H. C. Little, No. 33, Hampstead. The Relief Corps No. 19, of Derry and No. 54 of Derry Depot and Londonderry also attended, as well as the Charles Francis Adams Camp, Sons of Veterans, of Derry.

The Milton, New Hampshire SOLDIERS' MONUMENT was dedicated on Saturday, the 7th of November, 1908. The granite memorial stands 22 feet high from its base, erected "on the small park on South Main Street" (now Dawson Street). 

On its front (eastern) side, facing the main road, is inscribed the "Eli Wentworth Post, No. 89, G.A.R.", while its associated W.R.C., Eli Wentworth, No. 47, is honored with their name on the north face. The John H. Varney Camp, No. 3, S. of V., the town's Sons of Union Veterans group, has their name on the south side. On the back of the memorial is written "twenty seven unknown graves", in memory of those townsmen who did not return from the war.

[NOTE: With better weather soon arriving, I will visit this monument and take photos to include here. The surrounding area is much different than it was when the postcard image was taken - S.Dow] 

The Farmington News, on Friday,13 Nov 1908, ran an article about the monument dedication on pg 2, which included the following:

It was designed by George I. Jordan, a local member of the G.A.R., who had raised the needed funds for its construction ($2000.) during the three years prior to the dedication day.

The dedication ceremony was attended by some 2000 people, with the Eli Wentworth Post, No. 89, being in charge of the service. The A.O.U.W. Hall was used for the headquarters during the day, and for a luncheon banquet provided by the Woman's Relief Corps. A parade marched through the town on Main Street, ending at the park, where a quick ceremony was held. On account of the cold weather, most of the exercises were held in the neighboring church.

At 4 o'clock, with the services ended, the procession of people made a return march to the Hall, for the remaining day's entertainment.
