This blog grew out of my "Down Da Road I Go Blog," which was originally to be about stuff I was interested in, music and what I was doing. There was so much history and Civil War entries, I spun two more off. Starting Jan. 1, 2012, I will be spinning a Naval blog off this one called "Running the Blockade."

10th Wisconsin Infantry-- Part 2
From Wisconsin History.com.
Over 100 Burlington residents were in Company C, 1st Wisconsin.
Burlington men were also in Company F, 2nd Wisconsin at the Battle of Bull Run. One Burlington man was killed there. In 1880, his body was moved to Burlington Cemetery where more than 250 Burlington residents are buried who served during the war..
Burlington's original name was Foxville in 1837. In 1839 it was changed to Burlington.
