The 6th N.H.V.I. Co. E, Founded in 1995 by then 1st Sgt Michael Sebor, We are a nonprofit, tax-exempt historical association, chartered under the laws of the State of New Hampshire and compliant with the regulations of the Federal government. We proudly portray the identity of the 6th New Hampshire Regiment of Volunteers Company E, who were recruited from the Monadnock Region of New Hampshire and mustered in November, 1861. They trained and encamped at the Fair Grounds in Keene, New Hampshire, and fought extensively throughout the war. We are the ONLY regiment representing the 6th New Hampshire Volunteers strongly committed to promoting it's history throughout it's original home county and state. This Association’s mission is to accurately portray the culture, equipment and history of Federal soldiers and civilians involved with the War of the Rebellion, while educating, enlightening, and preserving it's heritage for the public. |

| We are a progressive group of reenactor's that strive to portray soldiers and civilians of the American Civil War in an accurate manner. At the same time we are in this hobby to promote part of our nation's rich history and have fun doing it. We participate in living history time-lines, some of the typical reenactments as well as more campaign orientated events that tend to be more rewarding for participants. If you have an interest in the Civil War, whether it be as a soldier or civilian feel free to contact us and see if the 6th NH is for you. Our civilians often participate and camp in the Town of Unity. An area at events set aside for townsfolk. Within the town there is Mayor, a post office, sheriff, general store, pub as well as dwelling places for non- military families of both US and CS sympathies. There are often many activities in town as well as planned scenario's that interact with the military. You will find the soldiers on the company street or tucked away in bivouac off in the shade of the wood line. We hope you will join us. |

| CSA (Confederate) Regalia Statement A Statement on Civil War Reenacting Civil War reenacting is about remembering the past, not the promotion of modern political agendas and beliefs. The purpose of Civil War reenactments and living history displays is to bring to people the memory of a time when the United States nearly self-destructed. Over 600,000 Americans died to settle their divisions. Both sides, North and South, were Americans. The results of the war included the destruction of slavery, the foundation of future civil rights for many in the 14th and 15th amendments, and a stronger, united country. Civil War reenactors are focused on remembering this divided time to remind a ll where such division can take us. Reenactors hope more than anything that a living history display or a battle reenactment will spark an interest in a few of the thousands of people that view them each year, both young and old, to further research on the causes, experience, and consequences of the Civil War. Therefore, the flags and uniforms at a Civil War living history event or battle reenactment are being displayed in a mobile living history museum. As with any museum, the purpose is to educate and inspire, and to encourage an appreciation of history. We are just trying to pull back the curtain of time for all to get a glimpse and a sense of a way of life long gone but not forgotten. Written by Steve Eames |
