Welcome


Welcome to "Remembering the 142nd PVI". The purpose of this site is post pictures, information, and the final resting places of this regiment of the American Civil War. It seeks to tell a "bottom up" history, straight from the common soldiers themselves. If you have any information concerning the 142nd, please email me at bmonticue@gmail.com. Thank you and enjoy.

Those Who Still Remember, Part III

In an earlier post on this site, Those Who Still Remember, Part II, I highlighted a couple of Civil War Reenacting groups portraying different companies of the 142nd PVI. One of those units, Company F, has a second website designed to help those who would like to get involved with Civil War Reenacting and Living History. Among other things, their site lists all the gear and accouterments that you'll need, links to sutlers where you can buy it all, as well as a very detailed description of what a reenactment looks like from start to finish from a reenactor's side. It's a great site for anyone who is interested in Living History, but isn't sure where to start.
