United States U.S. Military Ohio Ohio Military Ohio in the Civil War Hoffman's Battalion Infantry

Brief History[edit | edit source]

Hoffman's Battalion Infantry was organized December, 1861, for prison guard duty at Johnson's Island, near Sandusky, Ohio. They were transferred to 128th Ohio Infantry January 5, 1864. ^[1]

Companies in this Regiment with the Counties of Origin[edit | edit source]

Men often enlisted in a company recruited in the counties where they lived though not always. After many battles, companies might be combined because so many men were killed or wounded. However if you are unsure which company your ancestor was in, try the company recruited in his county first.
