Thirty-Fourth Infantry
This regiment was mustered in at Anderson, Indiana, September 16, 1861, for three year's, with Asbury Steele as colonel. Three Miami county men served as privates in Company H, viz: Ferdinand Rickert, C E Caster and William J Caster.
Winslow E Jesiop was a sergeant in Company K, in which the following privates were credited to Miami county: John Freeman, Joseph A Keller, William R Moon, Benjamin A Spring, James Taylor, John Tharp, John W Veach, Henry Worthington, Samuel Worthington.
About the middle of October this regiment was ordered to Kentucky and remained in camp until Febuary 14, 1862, when it was ordered to join General Grant in Tennessee. It arrived at Fort Douelson soon after that post surrendered and was then sent to take part in the expedition against New Madrid, Missouri. It was then in Arkansas until the spring of 1863, when it joined the forces under General Grant in the siege of Vicksburg and was in some of the most hotly contested engagements of that campaign. After the fall of Vicksburg it was ordered to Louisiana and from there to Texas.
This regiment took part in the last battle of the Civil War at Palmetto Ranche, Texas, May 13, 1865, and John J Williams, a private of Company B, who enlisted from Jay county, is said to have been the last man killed in action in the war. He fell at Palmetto Ranche on the date above named. The regiment was one of the last to be mustered out serving in Texas until February 3, 1866.
