Civil War
Seventh Regiment Infantry
From this date to the 25th of July it was engaged in labor on the fortifications, and on picket, losing three killed and twenty wounded.
The regiment, like the other Michigan regiments in the Army of the Potomac, had gone gallantly through the forced marches and hardships of the campaign, and now, with equal fortitude, it endured with them the labors in the trenches before Petersburg. On the 27th the 7th, with its corps, crossed the James river at Deep Bottom, but on the 29th returned to its former position before Petersburg, having lost during the movement two men wounded.
