notes.--Organized at
Hartford, and left the
State Dec 16, 1861, proceeding to
Annapolis, where it joined the
Burnside expedition to
North Carolina.
It was then in
Parke's (3d) Brigade,
Burnside's Division, with which it was present at New Berne; its casualties there were 6 killed, and 21 wounded. In July, 1862, it moved to Newport News; here the
Colonel resigned, and was succeeded by
Lieutenant H. W. Kingsbury, of the Fourteenth U. S. Infantry, who thereupon put the regiment in a high state of drill, discipline, and efficiency.
In the meantime it had been assigned to the Ninth Corps--
Harland's (2d) Brigade,
Sturgis's (2d) Division — with which it marched to
Antietam; its losses on that field were 36 killed and 103 wounded;
no missing; Colonel Kingsbury was killed there.
Under
Colonel Stedman the regiment was present at
Fredericksburg, but was only slightly engaged.
In February, 1863, the Connecticut Brigade moved to
south-eastern Virginia, and the Eleventh passed that year in the vicinity of
Suffolk and
Norfolk, during which it was engaged in several expeditions into the enemy's country, and in some minor engagements.
It re-enlisted and received a large number of recruits, taking the field in 1864 with 882 enlisted men present.
In the various actions at
Drewry's Bluff it lost 15 killed, 65 wounded, and 127 captured; at Cold Harbor, the casualties were 12 killed, 92 wounded, and 6 missing,
Major Joseph H. Converse receiving a mortal wound.
The Regiment was then in the Eighteenth Corps.
Colonel Stedman was killed in the trenches before
Petersburg.
In December, 1864, the regiment was transferred to
Ripley's (1st) Brigade,
Devens's (3d) Division, Twenty-fourth Corps.
