Brief History

The 18th Regiment, Ohio Infantry mustered in August 16 to September 28, 1861 at Athens, Ohio. They were mustered out November 9, 1864. [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.
