U. S. Regiments Called By Surnames 1776-1812.

Here is a list of all the names of the regiments I could find, Most all these regiments will have a surnames, others will have either a regiment number or a state name. I will not name any person from these regiments. This page is for those who are looking for a regiment that no one can seem to find. Although there will be no information on these regiments, at lest you will know there was a regiment by that name and what state that maybe some info can be found on it.

What I found interesting while researching this info was that after the Revolutionary War, they stop using surnames for the regiments, by the War of 1812, no regiment was called by a surnames or very few. Then when the Civil War started they started calling the regiments by surnames again and is still going on today. I will have to some research on why they stopped it in 1812.

Important note. Be careful just because I state a regiment from New Your does not mean that regimen was formed in that State it only means that, that person of that State was in that regiment. .

Note. This information come from the United States Pension Rolls, which is housed at the Library of Congress.
