Brief History[edit | edit source]
This regiment was organized in Delaware at large October 25 to November 26, 1862. It mustered out August 12, 1863.
Companies in this Regiment with the Counties of Origin[edit | edit source]
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.
