Brief History[edit | edit source]
The 11th Regiment, Minnesota Infantry was organized at Fort Snelling, Minnesota, on August and September, 1864. It mustered out on June 26, 1865, and discharged at St. Paul July 11, 1865.
For more information on this regiment see the following:
- Wikipedia article on the 11th Minnesota Volunteer Infantry Regiment.
- The Civil War Archives. A brief history of the 11th Regiment Infantry.
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.
