A regiment was immediately organized in June, 1861, consisting of 6 companies, a total of 500 men, headquartered in Washington, MO Pacific R.R., created under authority of Capt. Lyon, and placed under the command of J. W. Owens. This company was for some time secretly drilling with shotguns and rifles, getting ready to aid in the defense of their country. Col. Owens and A. W. Maupin applied in St. Louis, to Capt. Lyon, for muskets and ammunition, and their application was complied with on the condition that they would be personally responsible. Two hundred and fourteen muskets were sent out by Capt. Lyon to Washington, Mo., on the night of June 11, 1861, and with them were armed two companies, commanded, respectively, by Capt. Wilhelmi and Capt. Maupin. The former company, upon receiving their muskets, immediately took possession of Washington, and the latter marched to Union. Upon approaching the town, Capt. Maupin took the precaution to place guards on every road leading out of Union, and then marched into town, the glistening bayonets of his 100 men making a brilliant spectacle. There were then about ten rebels in Union, and, upon seeing the approach of the "lightning rods," these rebels attempted to make their escape, but found every road closed against them, and were captured on different roads, and brought back into town. They were admonished to desist from all attempts to interfere with the Government in defending its existence. At that time there were seven secession flags flying in the county, but before night every one of them was taken down by the secessionists themselves. Primary duties of the regiment consisted in guarding railroad bridgesin Franklin county until September, 1861, when te regiment was disbanded.

Among the patriotic organizations of Franklin and St. Louis Counties, during the Three-Months' Union Service of 1861, was the Pacific Battalion USRC. It was organized June, 1861, under the authority of Gen. Lyon, known as the Pacific Battalion Home Guard, St. Louis County. It consisted of 6 Companies and totaled 316 men with it's HQ at Franklin or Pacific, Missouri Pacific R.R. The chief service of the battalion was to guard bridges on the Pacific Railroad in St. Louis and Franklin Counties. The organization was mustered out of service by Colonel Chester Harding, on September 18th, 1861, receiving a nominal pay of $10, not having been regularly mustered into the United States Service.

WILLIAM C. INKS: Served as the first postmaster of Pacific from July 15, 1854 to May 4, 1861, at a modest salary never exceeding that of $122.16 for 1869, was a Major commanding the Pacific Home Guards, 1861. His organization is briefly mentioned as Franklin, possibly Franklin "County" or Pacific City Battalion, in a booklet about Missouri troops in service during the Civil War, 57th Congress, 1st session, Senate Document No 412, page 225. The organization is generally credited to Franklin county, but judging from the records of September, 1861, when it was active, it was apparently recruited from several counties.

COMPANY B, PACIFIC BATTALION USRC:
Formed at Allenton, the chief service of the Company was to guard the railroad bridges from June 8th to 28th at Fox Creek, and after that date at Glencoe. The Company made two larger scouts into Jefferson County, infested at the time by notorious bushwacker Sam Hilderbrandt. The first of these scouts, under Lieutenant Colonel Holmes, the second, under Captain Robert C. Allen, were undertaken to secure safety to Union people, arrest marauding bands and seize contraband of war.
