Brief History[edit | edit source]

Organized at Janesville, Wisconsin, November 30, 1861, to January 31, 1862. Mustered in January 28, 1862. Mustered out at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, September 29, 1865. Companies "G" and "L" mustered out October 26, 1865. [1]

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.
