Brief History[edit | edit source]

The 105th Regiment was organized at Cleveland, Ohio and mustered in August 20, 1862. From March April 29-May 20, 1865, the regiment marched to Washington, D. C. and was mustered out June 3, 1865^[1].

Wikipedia has additional history for the 105th Regiment.

Companies in this Regiment with the County 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 Mahoning County
Company B - many men from Geauga County and Trumbull County
Company C - many men from Geauga County and Trumbull County
Company D - many men from Lake County
Company E - many men from Geauga County
Company F - many men from Geauga County and Lake County
Company G - many men from Ashtabula County and Lake County
Company H - many men from Columbiana County and Mahoning County
Company I - many men from Ashland County (North Townships), Geauga County and Trumbull County (South Townships)
Company K - many men from Lake County

County information^[2] is from Steve Ward's Buckeyes All, Part V, Revised, on Larry Stevens' site for the 105th Ohio Infantry.
