Kady Brownell was one of at least three “vivandieres” known to have been attached to this regiment.
She joined with her husband Robert, and Colonel Ambrose Burnside the regiment’s commander appointed her a Daughter of The regiment, and colour bearer.
Kady Brownell was an active participant in the First Battle of Bull Run in 1861, and at the Battle of New Bern in 1862 after she and her husband re-enlisted with the 5th Rhode Island Infantry.
