401. Compiled Service Records of Volunteer Union Soldiers who
served in Organizations from the State of North Carolina.
Second Mounted Infantry, roll 13 A-Bo, roll 14 Br-El, roll 15
En-Ji, roll 16 Jo-O, roll 17 P-Sh, roll 18 Si-Y.
- Note:
- The Second North Carolina Mounted Infantry was organized at
Knoxville, Tennessee in October, 1863. The above service
records show age at enlistment, which would have been between
1863 and 1865. The unit was composed of around 1000 men, most
of which were from North Carolina, but many from Tennessee and
other states. I just thought this information might be helpful
to someone searching their Tennessee ancestor's role in the
Civil War; as most people would never think to look for a
Tennessee man in a North Carolina Union army unit.
