Erie Regiment, Pennsylvania Infantry

Historical Sketch:
Col., John W. McLane; Lieut.-Col., Benjamin Grant; Maj., M. Schlaudecker. The Erie regiment, which was recruited in Erie and Crawford counties, was sent to Pittsburg and there camped for six weeks. Later the arrival of more troops made the camp too crowded and a new camp was made near Hulton Station. Weeks of drill and camp duty followed but the anxiously awaited marching orders were not received. It was a greatly disappointed body of men who returned to Erie at the expiration of the term of enlistment without having been called to the front. But the drill of that summer made them most valuable recruits to some of the regiments organized later. Roster:
