15th
Pennsylvania Cavalry
Anderson Troop
The Anderson Troop was raised in the fall of
1861, at the suggestion of William J. Palmer, as an independent
company of cavalry to act as a personal escort for Brigadier
General Robert Anderson, of Fort Sumter fame, when he became
commander of the Department of the Ohio. It was retained in
that capacity by the subsequent commanders of the department
until it was mustered out of the service by General Rosecrans
in March of 1863. Captain William Palmer, First Lieutenant
William Spencer, and Second Lieutenant Thomas Maple made up
the original compliment of officers for this unit.
