40th Infantry, (11th Reserves), First State Color. The 40th was composed of men from Cambria, Indiana, Butler, Fayette, Armstrong, Westmoreland, and Jefferson counties, and organized July 1, 1861. They were given their first state color on September 10, 1861. The flag was captured in June 1862 along with most of the regiment's troops, and then retaken by Federal troops in 1865. The regiment was mustered out on June 14, 1864.
