Seventeenth Infantry
WISCONSIN
(3-YEARS)
Seventeenth Infantry. -- Cols. John L. Doran, Adam G. Malloy
Lieut.- Cols., Adam G. Malloy Thomas McMahon, Donald D. Scott
Majs., Thomas McMahon, William H. Plunkett, Donald D. Scott,
Patrick H. McCauley.
This regiment, known as the "Irish Regiment," was organized at
Camp Randall in the early part of 1862. It was ordered to St.
Louis a few days after organization and on April 10 was sent
to Pittsburg Landing, Tenn., where it remained in camp until
called upon to take part in the siege of Corinth.
After the evacuation of that place by the enemy the regiment
was stationed there for the summer and in October it
participated in the second battle of Corinth. Its loss in
this action was 41 in killed, wounded and missing. Gen.
McArthur the brigade commander, complimented the regiment,
saying, "Boys of the 17th, you have made the most glorious
charge of the campaign." An entire brigade was routed by this
one Irish regiment.
It took part in the battle of Port Gibson and the next day
pursued the enemy toward Vicksburg. It was in the battles of
Champion's Hill and the Big Black River, and in the siege of
Vicksburg its gallant services received special mention.
On June 8, 1864, the regiment arrived at Acworth, Ga. where it
joined the army under Gen. Sherman, and was engaged in heavy
skirmishing until the 19th. It participated in the battle of
Kennesaw Mountain, sustaining a heavy fire from the enemy's
artillery for more than 3 hours, with a loss of 2 killed and
11 wounded.
It took art in the battles about Atlanta in July, and later
was in action at Jonesboro and Lovejoy's Station. It was with
Sherman in his march from Atlanta to the sea and performed
gallant service at Savannah, Columbia and Bentonville.
After Johnston's surrender the regiment participated in the
grand review at Washington. It was mustered out July 14 and
soon after disbanded in Wisconsin.
Its original strength was 941. It gained by recruits during
its service 385; substitutes, 136; draft, 215; veteran
reenlistments, 287; total, 1,964. Loss by death, 221;
missing, 5; desertion, 157; transfer, 32; discharge, 448;
mustered out, 1,101.

From such a record I may be spared from making what seems the usual commonplace remark, "that both officers and men behaved well. " No such record as here made can be shown excepting by a cool indifference to danger and long continued and stubborn resistance, resulting from hard-earned experience and thorough discipline. I desire to call the attention of the general commanding to Lieutenant Henry B. Harshaw, acting adjutant, for his ready and active assistance on several occasions during the trials of the day. Also to Corporal [Rasselas] Davidson, of Company H, and Corpl. Paul V. Brisbois, of Company G, for gallantly seizing (one the State, the other the National) colors of the regiment, after their respective bearers had been shot down in a storm of bullets, and carrying them undismayed throughout the remainder of the battle, and bearing them in safety and in triumph off the field.

George Latta:
Co B. 160th Ohio Inf, Aug 27, 1846 - Feb 1, 1929 Schaefer-Shipman records, pg. 14. Buried at Marysville Cemetery (Listed as a noted person of Snohomish County in Whitfields 1907 History of Skagit and Snohomish county with a bio.)

Whitfields 1907 History of Skagit and Snohomish county
Among the oldest citizens of the vicinity of Marysville is George Latta, who for nearly twenty-five years has been a resident of that locality, where he commands the respect and veneration of all who know him. He was born in Perry county, Ohio, on the 27th of August, 1846, and is a son of Isaac B. and Nancy (Welsh) Latta. The father also was a native of Ohio and was a son of George Latta, one of the pioneers of that state, where the several generations of the family engaged in farming.
Mr. Latta of this review attended the public schools of his home neighborhood and in 1864, at the age of eighteen years, he enlisted in Company B, One Hundred and Sixtieth Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry, with which he served until the close of the Civil war. In 1866 he went to Bourbon county, Kansas, where he bought land and engaged in farming until 1902, when he sold his interests there and, coming to Snohomish county, bought eighteen and a quarter acres of land north of Marysville. The land had been logged off but was covered with stumps and brush, which Mr. Latta cleared off and developed the place into a good farm. Here he does general farming and keeps a flock of poultry, which afford him a nice income, so that he is able to spend his later years in comparative ease and enjoyment.
On June 2, 1885, Mr. Latta was united in marriage to Miss Nancy Armstrong, who was born in Kansas. Her parents, George and Elizabeth (Stacy) Armstrong, were natives respectively of Illinois and Indiana, and became pioneer settlers of Kansas, where they spent their last days. To Mr. and Mrs. Latta have been born the following children: Christine is at home. Viola is the wife of Fred. Hovik, who operates a farm near the home place, and they have a daughter, Maxine. Grace is the wife of Wesley Gallagher, who operates the home place, and they have four children, Betty, Daryl, Dorothy May and Nancy. May is the wife of Harvey Kirsch, of Everett, and they have a daughter, Arliss. Beulah is the wife of David Holmes, of Marysville, and is the mother of three children, Charles, Dale and William. Lester, who lives in Marysville and drives a truck, married Miss Lulu Carroll and they have a daughter, Doris. Oletha lives in Everett. Politically, Mr. Latta has always given his support to the republican party, though at local elections he is inclined to be independent of party lines, voting for the men whom he considers best fitted for the offices they seek.
His has been a long and honorable career and he has honestly made every dollar which he possesses and has so lived as to earn the sincere respect of all who know him.

Frank J Matts:
May 16, 1847 - Oct 30,1933 Schaefer-Shipman records pg. 174, buried at Marysville Cemetery
Local and Personal - After bidding their hosts of friends "Good Bye". Golda and Leslie Matts departed Wednesday on the 9:30 am train for Wisconsin. At Seattle they took passage on the celebrated "Columbian" over the Milwaukee. They go by way of Portage WI, where they stay over night, taking the train next morning for Madison where they change for a half hour's run on the C & N-W to Verona where their uncle John lives. Their uncle is a prosperous farmer and Leslie expects to become an expert tiller of the soil, and when he returns to the Sound again, will be able to analyze the sod and tell the formers in this section "how to grow three blades of grass where one grew before." He took his baseball and mitt with him for he intends to give those "badgers" a few lessons in the art of fine baseball playing. Golda will be there in time to attend the wedding of a near relative, will visit the celebrated Dells of Wisconsin, the capital city of four lakes, and big city of Chicago and other places of interest, and return in the Fall. Mr. Matts went with the children as far as Seattle and hints that when parting time came the "kid" got "cold feet" and wanted to come back with his father to Marysville. All that Mr. Matts has left now is "ol' Tom," that scarred veteran of many hard fought battles. They will endeavor to hold things down at least until Golda returns. Marysville Globe 18 Apr 1913 Issue

They had not seen each other for thirty years until last summer when Mr. Olney made a visit to his old home in Iowa. Mr. Elting will visit another son in Montana before returning to the Buckeye state. He was greatly impressed with the wonderful climate on the Sound and expressed his intention to visit this section at an early date.

Enoch Wilson Sanderlin:
Co. B 179 Ohio Inf., Sept 22, 1839 - July 6, 1934, Schaefer-Shipman records pg 193. Buried at Marysville Cemetery
Enoch Wilson Sanderlin
On 03 September 1864, Enoch Wilson SANDERLIN enlisted in Co. B, 179th Ohio Infantry at Crestline, Ohio. After his regiment was organized they moved to Nashville, Tennessee and was placed on duty at that post. The 179th Ohio was present at the battle of Nashville on December 15th & 16th, 1864. The regiment remained on duty at Nashville until it was mustered out on June 17, 1865. While in the line of duty, on about 15 December 1864, Enoch contracted a severe cold from exposure while in charge of rebel prisoners in taking them to Louisville, Kentucky. According to the pension papers,"the cold settled on his lungs and also seriously affected his liver from the effects of which he became jaundiced. Said disease afterwards developed into a severe form of diarrhea which became chronic and from the effects of which he has never recovered." Enoch spent a lot of time in the hospital from about January 1865 until 07 June 1865, when he was honorably discharged at Tripler U.S. Hospital, in Columbus, Ohio. On 14 December 1876 he applied for invalid pension, app#228760, cert#177008. He was described as a railroad worker & farmer; 5'7" tall, with a dark complexion, brown eyes, and black hair.
After his wife died in Michigan, Enoch moved to Marysville, Washington to live with two of his daughters. According to the pension papers he was unable to care for himself. His son-in-law, Stephen Terry, took care of all the burial arrangements when Enoch passed away. All of the family members who lived in Washington are buried in the Marysville cemetery. It was quite a coincidence to find that I had an ancestor buried so close to where I live. My aunt and I visited Enoch's grave last summer. Since most of my ancestors are from the mid-west I don't ever have the opportunity to go roaming through cemeteries as most genealogists do. It was nice to be able to pay my respects to one of the ancestors that I have come to know so well through my research
