Third Infantry Regiment Minnesota Volunteer Association.

Dates:
Active 1870
Active 1935

Biographical notes:

On October 20, 1870, seventy veterans of the Third Minnesota Infantry Regiment met in St. Paul to organize the association, which thereafter met annually to commemorate the Civil War service of the regiment, and to memorialize its members. At its organizational meeting, Hans Mattson was appointed its first president, and a committee was formed to locate surviving members of the regiment.

Originally incorporated under the name Third Regiment of Minnesota Veteran Volunteers, the association underwent a number of small name changes. The name form used in this collection was adopted in 1913.
