During the Civil War, Michigan raised 30 infantry regiments, 11 cavalry regiments, and four specialized regiments: the 1st Colored Infantry, 1st Engineers and Mechanics, 1st Light Artillery, and 1st Sharpshooters. Pittsfield Township men have been identified in 22 of the 30 infantry regiments and 7 of the 11 cavalry regiments, as well as every one of the four special regiments. They also served in U.S. (regular army) regiments and enlisted at several other states.According to the 1860 population census, the Pittsfield Township, Michigan population stood at almost exactly 1200.
