23rd Illinois Inf Irish Brigade

I'm doing a book on Col Mulligan's regiment. I have several data bases with info on the regiment (pension records, recruited Confederates, medical records and a regimental roster with info not in State's DB. If there are any relatives of soldiers in the IB and could use help, email me. If there are any relatives that have stories and would like to share, email me. My copyrighted book "The Harp and the Eagle" will attempt to cover pre-war background, war record and post-war experiences. This is a fascinating regiment, partially armed with Henry repeaters, staffed by several enlisted Irish Confederate POWs from Camp Douglas and three CMOH winners.
