NOTES. — The Seventh Wisconsin was one of the three regiments which lost the most men killed in battle of any regiments in the Union Army. Its loss was not only numerically large, but the percentage of killed was also a remarkable one ; the percentage was even larger than shown here, because the enrollment includes 256 conscripts, very few of whom reported for duty. The regiment left Wisconsin on September 21, 1861, going to Virginia, where it joined the Iron Brigade at Camp Lyon. The principal losses of the regiment were: at Secoml Bull Run, 31 killed, 153 wounded, and 33 missing; at South Mountain, 11 killed, 116 wounded, and 20 missing; at Gettysburg, 21 killed, 105 wounded, and 52 missing; at the Wilderness, 27 killed, 155 wounded, and 35 missing; at Spotsylvania, 19 killed, 58 wounded, and 3 missing; and at Gravelly Run, 6 killed, 38 wounded, and 3 missing. The Iron Brigade was in the First Division of the First Corps; this division (Wadsworth's) was transferred in March, 1864, to the Fifth Corps, becoming the Fourth Division. In February, 1865, the Sixth and Seventh Wisconsin regiments were assigned to Kellogg's (ist) Brigade, Crawford's (31!) Division, Fifth Corps. In December, 1863, the Seventh numbered only 249 present for duty, all told, and in October. 1864, only 156 muskets were present at the fight on the Boydton Road. _11369
