Brief History[edit | edit source]

The 108th Regiment was organized at Camp Dennison, Ohio in August, 1862. It marched to Washington, D. C., April 29-May 19 and was mustered out June 9, 1865.

The Wikipedia article, 108th Ohio Infantry, has more historical information about this regiment.

Companies in 108th 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.
