SIXTH INFANTRY.
This regiment was organized in August, 1862. Ordered upon Indian expedition of that year; a detachment of two hundred was engaged in the battle with the Indians at Birch Coolie, Septem- ber 2, 1862. The regiment participated in the battle of Wood Lake, September 22, 1862. From November, 1862, until May, 1863, the regiment was engaged garrisoning frontier posts. They were then ordered upon the Indian expedition of 1863, and were engaged with the Indians, July 24, 26 and 28, of that year. Stationed at frontier posts from September 18, 1863, until June 5, 1864, when they were ordered to Helena, Arkansas. Ordered to St. Louis, Missouri, in November, 1864, then to New Orleans in January, 1865. As- signed to the Sixteenth army corps. Participated in the engagements of Spanish Fort and Fort Blakely, in April, 1865. Discharged at Fort Snelling, in April, 1865. The record shows that the regiment was originally commanded by Col. William Crooks, of St. Paul, but such was not the
fact, strictly speaking, although technically so. Colonel A. D. Nelson was the original command- er. The outbreak of the Indian war, before the regiment was fully organized, caused them to be hurried to the scene of trouble before being mus- tered. They received their arms at Jordan and ammunition a few days later, while on the march. Colonel Nelson refused to report to Colonel Sib- ley from points of etiquette. The latter, although in command of the expedition, was a militia officer. This action on the part of Colonel Nel- son made his resignation necessary, and Colonel Crooks, who was originally lieut .- colonel, became colonel, and other officers throughout the regiment were raised one grade, so that when the regiment came to to be mustered in, the officers appeared as originals in places they had been promoted to. This explanation will make the record appear clear as we present it from the adjutant-general's report. Ramsey county was largely represented in this regiment, the men being principally in Companies A, E and G.

SEVENTH INFANTRY.
This regiment was organized in August, 1862, and originally commanded by Colonel Stephen Miller, of St. Paul. Ordered upon the Indian ex- pedition of 1862; engaged in the battle of Wood lake, Minnesota, September 22, of that year. The regiment was stationed at frontier posts until May, 1863, when it was ordered upon the Indian expedition of that year. Engaged with the In- dians July 24, 26 and 28, 1863; ordered to St. Louis, Missouri, October 27, 1863; thence to Pa- ducah, Ky., in April, 1864; thence to Memphis, Tenn., and assigned to the Sixteentli army corps in June following. Participated in the fol- lowing marches, battles, sieges and skirmishes: Tupelo, July 13, 1864; Tallahatchie, August 7 and 8, 1864; march in pursuit of Price from Brownsville, Ark., to Cape Girardeau, Missouri; thence, by boat, to Jefferson City; thence to Kansas state line; thence to St. Louis; battles of Nashville, Tenu., December 15 and 16, 1864; Spanish fort and Fort Blakely, in April, 1865. Discharged at Fort Snelling, August 16, 1865.
Comparatively few Ramsey county men were in this regiment, and they were in Company II. Colonels Miller and Marshall afterwards became governors of the state, and Captain Gilfillan, of Company HI, is now chief justice of the supreme court. Colonel Miller died at Worthington, Minnesota, in August, 1881,and Colonel Marshall, who first went into the service as a private in Company K, of the Eighth Infantry, is now state railroad commissioner. Some of the minor of- ficers and privates, have likewise become prom- inent in civil life. Following appear the names of Ramsey county's representatives in this regiment:
