TWENTY-NINTH INFANTRY.


ABOUT one hundred and fifty men of Genesee County- officers and private soldiers-served in the war of the Rebel- lion with the 29th Michigan Infantry. This regiment was organized at Saginaw in the autumn of 1864, its muster into the United States service being completed on the 3d of

TWENTY-NINTH INFANTRY.


October in that year. Three days later it left the rendez- vous for Nashville, Tenn., where it arrived October 12th, and soon after moved to Decatur, Ala., reaching there on the 26th. On the day of its arrival at Decatur that place was attacked by the army of the Confederate Gen. Ilood, and the 29th took part in the defense of the position until the 30th, when the enemy retired. From that time the regi- ment garrisoned Decatur until the 24th of November, when it marched to Murfreesboro', and, reaching there on the 26th, composed a part of the defending force at that point during the siege of Nashville and Murfreesboro' by Ilood, being engaged with a part of the enemy's forces at Overall Creek, December 7th. Having been sent out to escort a rail- way-train on the 13th, it was attacked at Winsted Church by a superior force of the enemy,-infantry and artillery, -and in the severe action which ensued it sustained a loss of seventeen, in killed, wounded, and wissing. The track was relaid under a brisk fire, and the regiment brought the train safely back to Murfreesboro' by hand, the locomotive having been disabled by a shell. On the 15th and 16th it was attacked by two brigades of the enemy's cavalry on the Shelbyville turnpike, south of Murfreesboro', while guard- ing a forage-train, and was again slightly engaged at Nolans- ville on the 17th. On the 27th it moved by rail to Ander- son, and was assigned to the duty of guarding the Nashville and Chattanooga Railroad. It remained on this duty till July, 1865, when it moved to Decherd, Tenn., and thence to Murfreesboro', arriving there on the 19th. It was em- ployed there on garrison duty till September 6th, when it was mustered out of the service, and on the 8th left Ten- nessee for Michigan, and was disbanded at Detroit about the 13th of September.

THIRTIETHI INFANTRY.


On account of the numerous attempts made by the enemy to organize in Canada plundering raids against our northern border, authority was given by the War Department to the Governor of Michigan, in the autumn of 1864, to raise a regiment of infantry for one year's service, and especially designed to guard the Michigan frontier. Its formation, under the name of the 30th Michigan Infantry, was begun at Jackson in November, 1864, and completed at Detroit on the 9th of Jannary, 1865. To this regiment Genesee County furnished between sixty and seventy men, most of whom served in Company I.


When the organization was completed the regiment was stationed in companies at various points, one company being placed at Fort Gratiot, one at St. Clair, one at Wyandotte, one at Jackson, one at Fenton, three in Detroit barracks, and one on duty in the city. But the speedy collapse of the Rebellion put an end to Canadian raids, and the regiment, although the men were willing for service, had no active duty to perform. It remained on duty until the 30th of June, 1865, and was then mustered out.
