The 77th Pennsylvania Regiment
The regiment was originally recruited in August, 1861. Company B was recruited in Allegheny County. The regiment was then in East Tennessee. On the 25th of April it returned to Nashville, and in the re-organization of forces made here, was assigned to the 1st brigade of the 1st division of the 4th corps, and Colonel Rose placed in command of the brigade, and Lieutenant-Colonel Robinson of the regiment.
The rebel forces on the west of the Mississippi river still preserved a hostile front, and the 77th, with other forces, was ordered to Texas, and arrived at Indianola, in that State, on the 27th of July. From there it marched to Green Lake, where a halt of ten days was made, and then proceeded to Camp Stanley, four miles above Victoria, on the Gaudaloupe (sic. Guadeloupe) river. Here it remained until the 1st of October, when it returned to Victoria. On the 5th of December it received orders to return home, and, breaking camp, marched to Indianola, a distance of fifty miles, where it embarked, and on the 16th of January, 1866, arrived in Philadelphia, and was finally mustered-out of service.
