7th (Jackman's) Infantry Regiment was assembled in August, 1862, but never completed
its organization. Colonel Jackman led a small number of men on raids in Missouri so they were
often called a "band of guerrillas." Later some of the officers and men merged into the 16th
Missouri Regiment, and Colonel Jackman, and Lieutenant Colonels Pleasant W.H. Cumming,
Jesse P. Herrell, and Levin M. Lewis.
