Brief History[edit | edit source]
First Battalion was organized at Omaha from January to August, 1864. It was in Fort Laramie until July, then consolidated with 1st Nebraska Veteran Calalry on July 10, 1865.
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.
