The third and Fourth Kansas regiments were organized of mixed arms, enrolled in the summer of 1861, and reorganized and consolidated with other organizations in the spring of 1862.
Authors note. All the following were killed, but what's sad no one seems to remember them. I could not find any information on them. It seems that no family recorded any information about them how sad. If any one has information on them please drop my a line lets help keep their spirits alive.
