At the time of the Battle of Shiloh, April, 1862, there were as yet no black units in either army. There were undoubtedly some blacks with the northern forces, as teamsters, laborers and servants, and so on. Many southern officers had also brought along a favorite "servant" when they went to the army. So certainly there were some blacks there, but none as members of fighting units.
