Pards-
I'm starting to do some research for an impression I'm looking to build of veteran of the Baltimore Riots of 1861, serving with the 6th Massachusetts Militia. I intend to use this as part of the background of my primary impression (90-day man who re-upped when his tour ended), and also to use in historical timeline style events as perhaps an under-represented element of the war.
I was wondering if anybody could point me to any sources (books, websites, etc) they knew of with regards to equippage and the like for that unit. This is my first big effort in deciphering the specific details from images and records, so any help in winding me up and setting me on my way would be handy.
All input is welcomed.
