Organized at Indianapolis, Indiana, and mustered in August 19, 1862. Moved to Nashville, Tennessee, June 16, and there mustered out June 20, 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.
