This information will be used in a planned book on Kentucky's Confederate military organizations.Jeff Weaver
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Kentucky That the Kentucky Militia shall be divided into three classes: 1st The Active or Volunteer Militia 2nd. The Enrolled Militia 3rd.
