Anyone know of any web sites that have any kind of order of battle for French units in the 1860's?

I've found this... http://www.military-photos.com/ob.htm I hope it is what you are looking for? It seems to be part of a larger site all about the French Army from the mid 1800's up to the First World War. It seems to be available only in the French language, which may present problems in trying to understand the unit types and names? Good Luck!

I'll throw this in if you do struggle with French unit designations? though I'm no expert sadly...

<b>B.C.P</b> is the acronym for <b>B</b>attalion a <b>C</b>hasseurs a <b>P</b>ied which basically translates to Foot Hunter Battalion (sic) the French Equivalent of contemporary German Jager, British Light or American Sharpshooter Infantry units.

I hope your French is better than mine?! [:D]
