The 5th Regiment consisted of the companies of men who enlisted&nbsp;from [[Brown County, Kansas Genealogy|Brown]], [[Clay County, Kansas Genealogy|Clay]], [[Chase County, Kansas Genealogy|Chase]],&nbsp;[[Geary County, Kansas Genealogy|Geary]], [[Johnson County, Kansas Genealogy|Johnson]], [[Dickinson County, Kansas Genealogy|Dickinson]], [[Saline County, Kansas Genealogy|Saline]], [[Ottawa County, Kansas Genealogy|Ottawa]], [[Anderson County, Kansas Genealogy|Anderson]], [[Allen County, Kansas Genealogy|Allen]], [[Neosho County, Kansas Genealogy|Neosho]], [[Shawnee County, Kansas Genealogy|Shawnee]], [[Wilson County, Kansas Genealogy|Wilson]], [[Woodson County, Kansas Genealogy|Woodson]] [[Wyandotte County, Kansas Genealogy|Wyandotte]] and [[Coffey County, Kansas Genealogy|Coffey]] counties. Men often enlisted in a company recruited in the counties where they lived though not always. After many battles, companies might be combined because so many men were killed or wounded. However if you are unsure which company your ancestor was in, try the company recruited in his county first. <br>
