The One Hundred and Seventh Regiment, Infantry.


In the fall of 1861, authority was given to recruit two full regi- ments to be known as the One Hundred and Seventh and One Hundred and Eighth.


The men were from the counties of Franklin, York, Dauphin, Cumberland, Lebanon, Lancaster, Schuylkill, Luzerne, Mifflin, Ju- niata, Bedford and Fulton. As a sufficient number of men for two full regiments were not obtained, they were brought together and organized as the One Hundred and Seventh, on the fifth of March, 1862, at Harrisburg, under the command of Colonel T. A. Zeigle.


On the morning of the sixteenth of July, Colonel Zeigle, died in camp, and his loss was severely felt. Lieutenant-Colonel Allen, being in feeble health, the line of officers united in a request that the Governor should commission Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas F. McCoy, of Lewistown, a soldier of the Mexican war, and at this time, Deputy Quartermaster-General of Pennsylvania, as their Colo- nel. The request was complied with, and Colonel McCoy soon after joined the regiment and assumed command.


This regiment done a commendable service under Colonel Mc- Coy's command, which space forbids a detail of here, but for which we refer the reader to Bates' History, vol. III, and the biographical sketch of this work, of Colonel McCoy.

The members of this regiment from Mifflin county, being scattered in various companies, it is impossible to identify them, as where- whole companies are orgaized in one locality. Few regiments have- had a more conspicuous or enviable record than the notable One Hundred and Seventh.


About one-half of Company F, of the One Hundred and Seventh, were from Mifflin county, but we are unable to identify them in the roster of that Company, but can refer to the following : Captain E. Zeigler, of Company G, One Hundred and Seventh regiment ; also F. A. Hart, of Company F, One Hundred and Seventh, killed at Gettysburg.


Two Hundred and Fifth Regiment, Infantry.


Part of company G, of this regiment, were from Mifflin county but we cannot identify the names in the company roster.


Sixteenth Cavalry Regimeut.


Part of company M, of the Sixteenth Cavalry, are situated the same as the above, and cannot be identified with certainty; hence we make this note.


One Hundred and Thirty-first Regiment.


This regiment was recruited in the central part of the State, and Companies B and E were from Mifflin county.

The One Hundred and Forty-ninth Regiment.


The troops composing this noted regiment were from the coun- ties of Potter, Lycoming, Clearfield, Clarion, Lebanon, Allegheny, Luzerne, Mifflin and Huntingdon, but from the records thereof, like the One Hundred and Seventh Regiment we cannot select from the roster of the regiment the men from Mifflin county as they were, as in that case, mixed in various companies.


Suffice to say that like all the other soldiers from Mifflin county they done efficient service in numerous engagements and left many of their number on the field of battle. No regiment received nor deserved higher encomiums, than the noted One Hundred and Forty- ninth Pennsylvania Volunteers.
