29 Canadians supposedly won the Medal of Honor in the American Civil War. Anyone know their names?

Any other Canadian winners

Hi Reg1. I went over this page earlier. There are 1500 Civil War recipients, and I had hoped someone could provide the 29 names so that I did not have to laboriously go through all 1500. In any event, thanks for the suggestion.

Any thoughts on the material for Fisher and Lyall?

You may want to have a look at this site:
members.tripod.com/PvtChurch/bios/mohbio.html It lists 24 of the Canadian M.O.H. winners and some of the citations aren't given but it may be useful.
Best regards
