The 77th Illinois regiment transferred into the first brigade, 4th division, 13 A.C. The 130th Illinois was part of the first brigade of the 4th Division of the 13th Army Corp.
In recognition of the 150th anniversary of the Civil War, I hope to chronicle the daily life of my great-great grandfather, William Fleming. He served with the 130th Illinois Infantry. I also have a great-great grandfather, William Henry Ellis, who served with the North Carolina Cavalry. Unfortunately, I do not have much information about his service, but perhaps I'll mix in some of his story in when time allows.
