They left in November with 845 men via Boston on the steamer Constitution and landed in Ship Island, Mississippi. After duty at New Orleans and Baton Rouge the Ninth was assigned to an "expeditionary" force at "Williams Canal" on June 25, 1862, along with regiments from four other states.

The project was abandoned July 24, 1862. Some 150 men of the Ninth died of disease within four months, starting with their arrival at the canal.
The Ninth Regiment saw action at Biloxi, Pass Christian, Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Bermuda Hundred and Deep Bottom and in the Shenandoah Valley at Cedar Creek, Fishers Hill and Opequon. 250 men from the Ninth Regiment died during the war.
