Brief History

The 1st Regiment, Vermont Infantry was organized at Rutland and mustered in for three months May 9, 1861.  The regiment mustered out August 9, 1865[1].

Companies in this Regiment with the Counties of Origin

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.
