The objectives of the Third Michigan Infantry Research Project are to collect, collate, archive and share information about the Third Michigan Infantry regiment (first organization), its history, and the men who served in the "Old Third" during the American Civil War.

The good news is that the history of the "Glorious Old Third" Michigan is finished at last. More than 20 years in the making and over 800 pages long the ebook comes with numerous appendices and an exhaustive surname index. Order your copy on CD right here.

I'm also in the process of putting online the biographical sketches of each of the 1,411 men who served at one time or another in the regiment.

I've put together a very short video of just a few of the images of men of the Old Third.
