14th Connecticut Infantry

The 14th Connecticut Infantry was raised from the counties of Fairfield, Hartford, Middlesex, New London, and Tolland. It mustered in at Camp Foote near Hartford in August 1862. At Gettysburg, the 14th had 200 men under the command of Maj. Theodore G. Ellis (1829-1883), a Hartford civil engineer.

The simple monument to this regiment is located on the Second Corps battle line on Hancock Avenue, just north of the Angle. Additionally, there are two markers located at the Bliss Barn site.
