Eight companies had been mustered into service when the regiment was ordered to move to Parkersburg, W. Va., where, on May 29, the regimental organization was perfected. The following day the companies were sent to different points on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad between Parkersburg and Clarksburg, and served the general government guarding railroad property, supplying guards and escorts for supply trains, and building a telegraph line to Rich mountain (following Gen. McClellan's forces). This service though important,was uneventful in history-making. There was no assemblyof the entire regiment from that time until a few days before muster-out. The president having called in the meantime for three-year volunteers, the regiment was promptly transferred to the U. S. service. Its term being about to expire it was ordered home to be mustered out, which took place on Aug. 28, 1861. It lost 2 men, 1 having died of disease. and the other having been killed in a railroad accident. Source: The Union Army, Vol. 2 606783 Karnes, Joseph V C 1841-1911 Who Was Who in America.
