TWO COMPANIES, WHICH SUBSEQUENTLY BECAME COMPANIES A AND B, HAD BEEN ORGANIZED BY HERMANN SEGEBARTH AS MARINE ARTILLERY, IN 1861, AND WERE STATIONED AT FORT DELAWARE. IN AUGUST, 1862, COLONEL SEGEBARTH RECEIVED AUTHORITY FROM THE WAR DEPARTMENT TO INCREASE HIS BATTALION TO A FULL REGIMENT OF HEAVY ARTILLERY TO SERVE FOR THREE YEARS. FOUR BATTERIES, D, F, G, AND H, WERE ACCORDINGLY RECRUITED TO NEAR THE FULL STRENGTH, DURING THE FALL AND WINTER OF 1862. SOON AFTER THE BATTLE OF ANTIETAM, IN SEPTEMBER, 1862, JOSEPH ROBERTS, MAJOR OF THE FOURTH REGULAR ARTILLERY, RECEIVED AUTHORITY FROM THE WAR DEPARTMENT TO RECRUIT A PICKED BATTALION OF ARTILLERY FOR SPECIAL SERVICE AT FORTRESS MONROE. RECRUITING WAS IMMEDIATELY COMMENCED, AND AS FAST AS ORGANIZED THE COMPANIES WERE SENT TO THE FORTRESS, WHERE THEY WERE DRILLED BY EXPERIENCED OFFICERS IN INFANTRY, LIGHT, AND HEAVY ARTILLERY DUTY. EARLY IN THE SPRING OF 1863, AN ORDER WAS ISSUED FROM THE WAR DEPARTMENT DIRECTING THAT THE TWO COMMANDS OF SEGEBARTH AND ROBERTS SHOULD BE CONSOLIDATED IN ONE REGIMENT, TO BE KNOWN AS THE THIRD PENNSYLVANIA HEAVY ARTILLERY, ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SECOND OF THE LINE. THIS WAS ACCORDINGLY EFFECTED, AND THE FOLLOWING FIELD OFFICERS WERE COMMISSIONED: JOSEPH ROBERTS, COLONEL; R. V. W. HOWARD, LIEUTENANT COLONEL; JOHN A. DARLING, MAJOR.
