Brief History[edit | edit source]

The 2nd Regiment, Ohio Infantry mustered in July 17 to September 20, 1861 at Camp Dennison, Ohio. It mustered out October 10, 1864, expiration of term. Recruits transferred to 18th Ohio Infantry and mustered out at Chattanooga, Tennessee[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.
