130th Regiment, Pennsylvania Infantry

Historical Sketch:
Cols., Henry I. Zinn, Levi Maish; Lieut.-Cols., Levi Maish, John Lee; Majs., John Lee, Joseph S. Jenkins. Two companies from Cumberland county, three from York and two from the counties of York, Montgomery, Cumberland, Dauphin and Chester, made up the 130th, which was mustered in at Harrisburg on Aug. 15, 1862, for nine months, and moved to Washington on the 18th. It was posted for a week at Camp Wells, near Arlington Heights, and was then sent to Fort Marcy, near Chain bridge, which it garrisoned until Sept. 7, when it moved to Rockville, Md., where it was assigned to Morris' brigade, French's division, Sumner's corps, which took an active part in the battle of Antietam, the brigade, composed entirely of new troops, behaving as coolly under fire as veterans and winning the praise of Gen. French. The loss of the 130th in this battle was 296 in killed and wounded. After a short time spent in camp at Harper's Ferry, the regiment arrived at Falmouth in November and was posted at Belle Plain landing on guard duty until Dec. 5. French's division made a gallant charge at Fredericksburg, losing many brave men, and after the battle retired to its camp near Falmouth, which it occupied, with the exception of the "Mud March," until the opening of the Chancellorsville campaign in the spring of 1863. In the battle of Chancellorsville the 130th was closely engaged, after which it returned to Harrisburg, where it was mustered out on May 21, 1863. Roster:
