Seven Rebel Graves Designated a Cemetery-- Part 3


The 13th participated in these battles in Louisiana during the war:

Lake Providence
Fort DeRussey
Mansfield
Pleasant Hill

And in Arkansas at Jenkins Ferry.

The majority of the regiment's 145 fatalities during the war were from disease.  Only eleven came from enemy fire.

Those at Camp Blair were forgotten until just recently
