This table lists the prominent battles or events where Wallick soldiers served during the American Civil War. Click on a soldier’s name to be linked to his biography and view his regiment’s involvement in the battle or event. The list is in chronological order.

There are some battles and events where we know Wallick soldiers were engaged in the action and at other times we must assume they were present. There is always the possibility that a soldier was uninvolved for some unknown reason. The following service records are a combination of known incidents of involvement and assumed participation, taking for granted that the soldier was healthy enough to be an “effective” and take part in the activities of his regiment and company. Usually, no roll call was recorded just before a unit entered battle. Different companies in the regiment may have had different assignments, or an individual soldier may have been absent due to sickness, temporary assignment to other duties, or on furlough.
