Capt. Melchers's Co Artillery (Co. B. German Artillery)

Historical Notes:
This was a part of the 1st Militia Artillery Regiment which was evidently separate from the SC 1st Artillery Regiment, although they shared common service. The 1st Artillery Regiment roster contains over 3,000 names however, so the two may be combined. Further research will be required on these units. Officers:

Captain F. Melchers

Department of S.C., Ga., and Fla.

Battles:
Port Royal SC (7 NOV 1861)
Carolinas Campaign SC (FEB - APR 1865)
