11th Kentucky Volunteers detailed roster
The following names were compiled from Regimental Records at the National
Archives. Spelling
of names, along with alternate spellings, are as they appear on the Muster
Rolls. Succeeding
entries are: rank at enlistment, company assigned, age at enlistment, date
enlisted and where
enlisted. All enlistments were for three years, unless otherwise noted. The
regiment was
mustered into Federal Service on 9 Dec 61 at Calhoun, Kentucky.
Hospitalizations, wounds,
transfers, promotions and other information are also included. The regiment
was mustered out
of Federal Service 14-17 Dec 64 at Bowling Green, Kentucky. Unfortunately, the
regimental
papers were lost to Confederate forces on 23 Nov 64 due to the abandonment of
Pulaski,
Tennessee by Federal forces. Major General Schofield ordered the evacuation of
Pulaski to
return to Nashville and only essential materials were taken along. However, a
few duplicate
enlistment and discharge certificates still survive.
