| Publisher Description: The Louisiana 6th Infantry Regiment was organized in May, 1861 at Camp Moore, Louisiana. Many of these men were of the newspaper trades and half were "Irishmen." Ordered to Virginia, the regiment served under General Ewell at First Manassas, then was assigned to R. Taylor's, Hays', and York's Brigade. After participating in Jackson's Valley Campaign, it fought with the Army of Northern Virginia from the Seven Days' Battles to Cold Harbor. It continued the fight with Early in the Shenandoah Valley and later shared in the Appomattox operations. |
