Brief History[edit | edit source]

Organized at Lafayette, Indiana. Moved to Indianapolis, Indiana. Capture of Macon April 20. Pursuit of Jeff Davis May 6-10. Moved to Nashville, Tennessee, May 23-June 15. Mustered out June 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.
