Here was a good site that I found for the Black Hawk War of 1832: http://lincoln.lib.niu.edu/blackhawk/ Looking for exact names? Try here: http://www.sos.state.il.us/departments/ ... khawk.html I had to laugh at this quote concerning recruitment: "Provisions for the men and food for the horses will be furnished in abundance." No, steak dinners were not served! Conditions during the Taylor campaign are related thusly: http://lincoln.lib.niu.edu/cgi-bin/geto ... ces/IMAGE/ Finally, may I direct you to this board for the Black Hawk War. I'll bet that they can get a general order of battle for the campaign for you. Here is the general link: http://blackhawkwar.proboards9.com/index.cgi Here is a link specific to US Regulars: http://blackhawkwar.proboards9.com/inde ... 1063053718 It looks pretty messy to me! Noone agrees on the sizes of the companies and disease really must have raised Cain with the manpower levels. One company had 40 men present for duty - the day before it had had 72! |
