Unknown Company

These names appear on the Roster but it does not state which Company they belonged to.
Most of the time it is stated that they transferred from the 2nd Michigan Infantry to other units.
There is one Special Name at the end. I believe that soldier was temporarily attached to the 2nd Mich. Inf. while is unit was on Furlough.
