Peggy,

There is a account of the capture in the OR's. I believe Carolyn Bartel still sells her book about the capture on Blackwater. There was also a book written by the late Erwin Aprill about the capture.

These were Mo State Guard recruits/soldiers at this time.Most of them didn't become Confederates until the spring of'62.

A couple of officers from the top of my head were:
Col. Robinson and Maj.Magoffin

I think you can google the Blackwater affair to answer most of your questions if you do not have access to the above mentioned books.

hope this helps,

Keith
