SECOND REGIMENT POTOMAC HOME BRIGADE INFANTRY.


HE Second Regiment of Infantry, Potomac Home Brigade, was organized at Cumberland, Maryland, from August 27, 1861, to October 31, 1861, to serve three years.


On the expiration of its term of service, the original members (except veterans) were mustered out and the veterans and recruits consolidated into a battalion of three companies, viz., companies A, B and C. A new company was organized in March, 1865, to serve one year, and assigned to this battalion as Company D.


The organization was mustered out of service May 29, 1865, in accordance with orders from the War Department.


Companies A, B, C, E, G, H, I and K were recruited in Allegany County, Company F at Hancock, Washington County, and Company D at Piedmont, Virginia, on the border land.


Immediately after the completion of the organization the regiment was assigned to duty in Western Virginia, in that part of the Army of West Virginia under General B. F. Kelly, and, for a brief time, under General F. W. Lander's command.


During the raid of General (Stonewall) Jackson's Confederate Army through Berke- ley Springs to Hancock, Md., in January, 1862, and the subsequent movement of this Confederate Army to Romney, West Virginia, the 2d Regiment Potomac Home Brigade Infantry took a very active part, and had several severe skirmishes with the enemy. On September 17, 1862, the 2d Regiment Potomac Home Brigade Infantry had a skirmish with the enemy near Romney, West Virginia.


Company F of the 2d Regiment Potomac Home Brigade, Captain George D. Sum- mers, had been mounted as cavalry and sent into the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia in the summer of 1863, where they rendered efficient service, more especially in a brisk skirmish at Berryville, Virginia, in June, 1863, with a portion of Rhodes' Division of Confederate Infantry, on their march to get to the rear of General Milroy's Division, then at Winchester, Virginia.


Subsequently this company was placed in a squadron under the temporary command of Captain George W. F. Vernon, of Company A, Cole's Battalion of Cavalry, Maryland Volunteers, and rendered valuable service during the Gettysburg campaign.


On October 7, 1863, Company F (Cavalry) of 2d Regiment Potomac Home Brigade had a skirmish with Gilmor's Battalion, Maryland Cavalry (Confederate), at Summit Point, where its gallant Captain, George D. Summer's was killed whilst leading his company in a cavalry charge.


542


SECOND REGIMENT POTOMAC HOME BRIGADE INFANTRY.


The 2d Regiment Potomac Home Brigade Infantry rendered efficient service in Western Virginia, in the autumn and winter of 1863.


The 2d Regiment Potomac Home Brigade Infantry formed a part of the Army of General David Hunter, who advanced down the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia as far as Lynchburg, Va., on the James river, in June, 1864, after the arrival of reinforcements of Early's Confederate Army at Lynchburg and the retreat of the Army of Western Vir- ginia. The 2d Regiment Potomac Home Brigade Infantry marched with that army, and when Early's Army was in turn driven back from Maryland to Virginia, the 2d Regiment Potomac Home Brigade Infantry formed a part of the Union Army in pursuit, and par- ticipated in the fight at Snicker's Gap, Va., July 18, 1864.


From thence the 2d Regiment Potomac Home Brigade Infantry marched to Western Virginia again, where the original men not re-enlisted as veterans were mustered out of service on the expiration of their terms of enlistment, in the autumn of 1864, and the battalion, composed of veterans and recruits, continued in the military service in the Department of West Virginia until the close of the war, and were mustered out of service May 29, 1865.


The 2d Regiment Potomac Home Brigade Infantry, with its Cavalry Company F, participated, either by detachments or as an organization, in the following engagements, viz .: Springfield, Va., August 23, 1861; Blue House, Va., August 26, 1861; South Branch Bridge, Md., October 23, 1861; Springfield, Va., October 26, 1861; South Branch Wire Bridge, October 26, 1861; Great Cacapon Bridge, Va., January 4, 1862; Vance's Ford, near Romney, Va., September 17, 1862; Charlestown, Va., May 15, 1863; Summit Point, Va., October 7, 1863; Charlestown, Va., October 18, 1863; Burlington, Va., November 16, 1863; Ridgeville, Va., January 4, 1864; Moorefield Junction, Va., January 8, 1864; Medley, Va., January 30, 1864; Lynchburg, Va., June 18, 1864; Salem, Va., June 21, 1864; South Branch Bridge, Va., July 4, 1864; Sir John's Run, Va., July 6, 1864; Snicker's Gap, Va., July 18, 1864; Martinsburg, Va., 1864; Back Creek Bridge, Va., 1864; Hancock, Md., 1864; Green Spring Run, Va., 1864.


The following death casualties were incurred by the 2d Regiment Potomac Home Brigade Infantry, Maryland Volunteers, during the Civil War, viz .: Killed in battle, one (1) commissioned officer and nine (9) enlisted men-total, ten (10); died of disease, wounds, etc., eighty-four (84) enlisted men; or an aggregate death list of ninety-four (94).
