THE 12TH CAVALRY, 127TH REGIMENT

Transcribed and contributed by Pati Blowers

It was organized in Kendallville, Noble Co., IN on March 1,1864. Consisting of 8 companies recruited by Col. Edward Anderson from the 9th Congressional District and 4 companies from the 10th District.  

This is a full list of the enlisted men of Company B and a partial list of Companies A and C.  

My great-great-grandfather was in company B and this list was included along with the copy of his service records. It was provided by the kind people at the Indiana State Library for a small fee.  

The copy that I have was not centered right so some of the information in the remarks did not get copied. I have put all that is there and finished with a line to show that it is not a finished remark.
