Rhonda... Anything I can be of help with would be fine. I am interested in the 5th Kansas Cavalry as part of Lane's Kansas Brigade and because several companies of the 3rd and 4th Kansas Volunteers were transferred to the 5th Kansas in April/May 1862. I sort of lose track of them before Helena but remain interested in them. Several of the transferred individuals kept diaries such as Captain Henry Miles Moore, Captain Creitz, Lt. Joseph Trego, etc.

A more knowledgeable expert is Greg Herman, a retired Overland Park, Kansas police officer who wrote several monographs on the Fifth located in the Olathe Library.

Thanks,
Howard Mann
