Brief History[edit | edit source]
The 123rd Regiment, Illinois Infantry was organized at Mattoon, Illinois, and mustered in September 6, 1862. They moved to Chattanooga, Tennessee., May 23; thence to Nashville and duty there until June 27. It mustered out June 27 and discharged at Springfield, Illinois, July 11, 1865. [1].
Companies in this Regiment with County 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.
