Re: Powder River Expedition of 1865

Gil:
Like you, I have an intense interest in the Cole Expedition of 1865. I think I've read all the published information regarding this expedition, but have not been able to determine what specific type of Spencer rifle cartridges were carried/used by Cole's troops 1n 1865. Do you know? For the past 5 years, I have been seeking physical evidence left by the Cole Expedition through Western SD and SE Montana. I'm a physcial scientist, so I need solid evidence for camp locations rather than a simple x on a large map. Given that I have not been able to uncover any maps prepared by participants of the 1865 expedition, I think the best physcial evidence is probably their Spencer rifle shells. Hence my interest in the specific type of Spencer ammunition given to Cole's troops. Thanks in advance for what ever information you might be able to provide!
Best wishes,
Sherry
