The 13th Kentucky Infantry was organized in December, 1861 at Camp Hobson, Kentucky, under Colonel Edward H. Hobson, and was mustered in December 30, 1861. At the battle of Shiloh the stern and unflinching character of this command was demonstrated and its unwavering ranks were repeatedly assaulted by the enemy, but without effect. It was mustered out at Louisville, Kentucky, January 12th, 1865, the recruits and veterans being transferred to the Kentucky Veteran Cavalry.<ref>Kentucky.
