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.

Companies by County:

Company A - many men from Madison County
Company B - many men from Franklin County
Company C - many men from Franklin County
Company D - many men from Licking County
Company E - many men from Champaign County
Company F - many men from Licking County
Company G - many men from Logan County and Madison County
