The Irish Soldiers Relief Society

supporting the recreated 28th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry is a civilian reenacting organization known as the Irish Soldiers Relief Society (ISRS).

The ladies and gentlemen of the ISRS work to educate the public by portraying, as accurately as possible, the life and times of civilians during the American Civil War. They also provide support from "the home front" for the soldiers of the 28th Massachusetts, some of whom are the husbands, sons or significant others of ISRS members. 

The Irish Soldiers Relief Society is affiliated nationally with the Mifflin Guard Civilians. 

If you would like to learn more about the ISRS or reenacting with the group, simply send a dispatch to our civilian coordinator and she will reply directly within a day or two.
