Numbers engaged and casualties are difficult to accurately establish. Fortunately, for the Federals, an official report of casualties for each Unit engaged was made out on May 22, 1864, but somehow it never found its way into the Official Records, nor is it to be found in the National Archives. However, the New York Tribune published it in full on May 27, 1864, and this is the source of most of the Federal figures below.

Confederate losses are more difficult to come by, though a few scattered reports exist, For the purposes of this list, only casualties of those units engaged in the main battle are listed; losses suffered before or after that are not included. Information adopted from The Battle of New Market by William C. Davis
