One reliable source informs readers that of the 1.8 million Northerners called to duty in the US Civil War, did include immigrants. The consensus seems to center around 20% of immigrants that in one way or another was part of the Union's war effort.In some places, such as New York City, immigrants rioted when draft officials came to the nations largest city, NYC.
