Any descendants of Benton County Home Guards members out there? (aka German Regiment) I have spent a couple years reconstructing the roster, but there are still "unknowns" listed, and some whose later location and fate are not known. The rosters and a summary of the unit's short history may be viewed at: http://members.aol.com/hrftx/BCHG.htm

While my father's ancestors were members of above Union unit, my mother's oldest uncle of Johnson County died at Corinth serving with the 2nd Mo Infantry (Confederate): Is there an online summary of this unit's history?
