Brief History

The 2nd Independent Battery, Ohio Light Artillery  mustered in August 7, 1861 at Camp Chase, Ohio.  They mustered out July 21, 1865 at Ship Island, Mississippi.[1]


Companies in this Regiment with the Counties of Origin

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.

Many men from Adams & Astabula Counties.
