Brief History[edit | edit source]

The 12th Regiment, Ohio Infantry mustered in June 28, 1861 at Camp Dennison, Ohio.  They were mustered out July 11, 1864 at Columbus, Ohio. [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.

Companies by County:

Three Years Service:
Company A - Many men from Warren County.
Company B - Many men from Greene & Highland Counties.
Company C - Also known as "Union Guards".  Many men from Clermont County.
Company D - Many men from Greene County.
Company E - Many men from Newark, Licking County.
Company F - Mix of counties.
Company G - Many men from Middletown, Butler County.
Company H - Mix of counties.
Company I - Many men from Greene, Montgomery & Warren Counties.
Company K - Many men from Brown, Highland & Ross Counties.
