Regimental History
One Hundred and Thirty-fifth Infantry
INDIANA (100 DAYS)
One Hundred Days' Volunteers. -- Indiana's quota of 100 days'
troops was eight regiments, numbering consecutively from the
132nd to the 139th, inclusive.
They were used largely for guard duty and in garrisoning
necessary points, relieving veteran troops for active field
work in the important campaigns of 1864. These troops were to
perform such duty as might be required of them in any state,
and were to be armed, subsisted, clothed and paid by the
United States.
Upon reaching Nashville they were assigned to railroad guard
duty along the lines of the Nashville & Chattanooga, Tennessee
& Alabama, and Memphis & Charleston railroads. They were kept
constantly engaged in this work until the latter part of Aug.,
1864, serving beyond the time for which they had enlisted,
keeping Sherman's lines of communication open for the
transportation of supplies to his army.
One Hundred and Thirty-fifth Infantry. -- Col, William C.
Wilson Lieut.- Col., John H. Gould; Maj., Benjamin M Gregory.
This regiment was organized in May, 1864, being composed of
companies raised in the 8th Congressional district. Mustered
in at Indianapolis in May, 1864, it left the state at once,
moving to Tennessee. It was mustered out in Aug. 1864.
Strength, 930. Loss by death, 25; desertion, 4.
