Michigan Civil War
Eighth Regiment Infantry
From the Annual Cyclopedia, 1864:
On the right the 5th and 9th corps were advanced, but the conflict here was not so severe, as the force of the enemy was massed on their right. Still farther to the right the 3d division of cavalry under General Wilson was engaged with a force of the enemy under General Hampton, but without important results. The contest was continued with more or less vigor throughout the day. The enemy were found too strongly posted to carry their works, and all efforts to cross the Chickahominy at that point were repelled.
