The 17^th of June camp was moved to a grove of trees on "Apple Pie Ridge" near Winchester moving once more on the 17^th of July to the Berryville Pike just outside of Winchester. Remaining here until July 31 when mustered out of Federal service by Lt. Whiteside of the Sixth U.S. Cavalry. Leaving the Valley on August 1 by rail, the men reached Rochester on the 4^th where they were marched to their old camp at the fairgrounds south of Mt. Hope Cemetery. On the 9^th of August after all regimental, company and personal records were settled the men were mustered out of State Service. None of the men had received any pay since December 31 when the Army of the Potomac was last paid. Nor had all the men received all the bounties due to them, so it is a credit to the government to let these men arrive home before paying them their due (4). Many of these fellows had left Rochester as boys and had returned as men. Instead of the 1200 that mustered in, or the 800 that left for Virginia or the 300 that fought its way through the Shenandoah Valley, just 100 men were left to settle their accounts with the government. Eighty-seven men from the Twenty-Second New York Cavalry died as prisoners of war. This distinction places them as having one of the sixty highest Union death rates for prisoners of war (5). Most of these men died in the Confederate prison at Andersonville, Georgia. These troopers who went to war so unprepared, but under the guidance of experienced and competent commanders, becoming "Second to none", suffered a 43% casualty rate.
