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.



Companies by County:
Company A - Many men from Guernsey and Muskingum Counties.
Company B - Many men from Summit County.
Company C - Many men from Morrow County.
Company D - Many men from Logan and Warren Counties.
Company E - Many men from Pickaway County.
Company F - Many men from Guernsey and Washington Counties.
Company G - Many men from Coshocton and Fulton Counties.
Company H - Many men from Franklin County.
Company I - Many men from Guernsey, Knox and Wayne Counties.
