I was able to confirm the name of Lt Colonel Nelson Lloyd White, who served thru until 1864 when he resigned. I was also able to confirm that upon arrival at the front, the 1st was sent to Hagerstown. So the few clues that are given in the story I was able to confirm but the big questions remain.
Also, you may not have ever heard of the original outfit, but the 4th Connecticut Infantry became the 1st Connecticut Heavy Artillery in January 1862 and served at many battles in the Eastern front.
