I have about 20 decent pics of members of the Colorado units. I have good ones and histories of Col. Leavenworth of the 2nd Colorado Infantry, Col. Ford and Lt. Col. Dodd of the 2nd Colorado Cavalry after consolidation, and many of the captains and other officers. I have several coming from descendants of members. The Colorado State Historical Society Archives have some also. I had one sent to me of an entire company (38 men or what was left of the company) from the 2nd Colorado, but I cannot identify the primary officer or the unit. Still researching that one. I have several books on the New Mexico involvement, two diaries from the unit, and copies of the Soldier's Letter, which was the newspaper printed at Ft. Riley by members of the 2nd Colorado Cavalry, and one of few papers printed for the Union enlisted. I have most of the official records passed back and forth from the unit and a nearly complete day-to-day location for the unit, though usually in battalions not as an entire regiment. Again, I have knowledge of a lot of work done by members of the 2nd Colorado Infantry reenactment unit on the 2nd and 3rd before consolidation in Indian Territory. I would love to share. My book is a major work on all units but since the 2nd was most involved, there was more to find.

It is great to see people interested in the same history.
