All,

Does anyone know the origin of Co. D, 48 KY Infantry of CW time frame. Was
it a Federal/Union/USA unit or Confederate/CSA unit? In what area was it
recruited?

My Thomas SMOCK, b. 1821, IL served in this KY unit. I'm not sure just why
since there were IL units (Union) formed from his home area of Cave in Rock,
Hardin Co., IL.
If he wanted to serve in the CSA, then the KY enlistment makes some sense.

Would appreciate being educated about Co. D, 48 KY Infantry.

Best regards,
Hugh
