Martin Maginnis was born on Oct 27, 1841, in Palmipa, in Wayne County, New York, of Irish parents, Patrick and Winnifred (Descane) Maginnis.
He enlisted at Red Wing on April 18, 1861. He was mustered in at Ft Snelling on April 29th and was appointed 1st sergeant of Company F. He was 5' 8" tall and was described as having a florid complexion.
He was discharged to accept a commission as 2nd lieutenant in August of that year.
He was wounded in the left shoulder at Savage Station on June 28 1862.
Martin was transferred from Company F to Company H on Sept 17, 1862, and was promoted to 1st lieutenant, replacing Francis Baasen, who had been appointed quartermaster of the regiment.
Martin was assigned to command the company on Sept 26th. On July 28, 1863 he was made captain of Company K, replacing Captain Joseph Periam, who had died from the wounds he received during the battle.
The picture, shown here of him as a captain, was taken sometime between July 28, 1863, and May 5, 1864.

Martin spent the last four years of his life in California. He probably moved there for his health. On March 27, 1919, he died of gangrene of the foot, at his home at the Huntley Apartments, in Los Angeles. He had also been suffering from arterio slerosis. His body was sent to Helena, Montana for burial.
