Brief History[edit | edit source]
The 9th Regiment, Minnesota Infantry was Organized at Camp Release, Hutchinson, St. Peter, Fort Snelling, Glencoe and Fort Ridgly on August 15 to October 31, 1862. The 9th was mustered out on August 24, 1865 at St. Paul, Minnesota.
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.
