WOOD COUNTY, OHIO.
as guard to the regimental wagon-train. On August 3, 1864, it moved to Charleston, Tenn. There it participated in the engagement with the Rebel cavalry under Wheeler, and in the subsequent movements until it reached Straw- berry Plains, where it remained up to August, 1865. It was mustered out of service at Nash- ville, Tenn., August 23, 1865.
Fifty-fifth Infantry (three years) was organ- ized at Norwalk, Ohio, between the middle of September and the beginning of December, 1861. The command was mustered September 13, 1861, with John C. Lee, Colonel. There were a few men in the regiment from Wood county serving mainly in Company B, from which Henry J. Pelton rose from the ranks to Second Lieutenant, and Quartermaster of the regiment.
On January 25, 1862, it left for Grafton, Western Virginia, and from there soon moved to New Creek. Its first skirmish was at Moorefield. The next spring it advanced to Romney, where it joined Gen. Schenck's brigade, which moved to Moorefield, and went into camp at a ferry on the Potomac, three or four miles north of the town. In the battle of McDowell, or Blue Pasture Mountain, the 55th constituted the reserve, and served as support to a battery. After the bat- tle, the troops fell back to Franklin in order to avoid being cut off by a flank movement. On this march, and during the stay in Franklin, the regiment suffered severely on account of the scarcity of rations. The regiment was present at the battle of Cross Keys; but was not engaged. The army of Virginia was organized at Middle- town, near Winchester, whither, about June 20, the regiment arrived, and stopped for a short rest. The 55th was brigaded with the 25th, 73d and 75th Ohio, and was attached to Gen. Schenck's division. The regiment was at Slaughter Mountain, arriving on the battlefield at 3 A. M., August 9, 1862.
Shortly before sunset, August 28, the regi- ment was pushed forward from the north of War- renton, partly deployed as skirmishers, to dis- cover Jackson's position. This was on the old Bull-Run battle ground. On the 29th the two armies were engaged the greater portion of the day, neither party gaining any very decided suc- cess. The 55th was under severe artillery fire, but was not engaged with the enemy's battle line. During the 30th the regiment lay in close column, by division, behind a swell of ground, upon which was posted a battery of six steel guns. About an hour before sunset the enemy appeared suddenly on the flank.
The regiment deployed
under fire, but after giving a few volleys it re- turned to the main line, which was about one hundred yards in the rear. Here the regiment was reformed, and it continued to engage the enemy until near dark, when with the brigade it gradually moved to the rear, and after dark it fell back to Centerville. The regiment at the battle of Chancellorsville formed part of the IIth Corps, and in going into position, on May I, it was in the 2d Brigade from the right. In this engagement, which opened about 5 P. M., on the 2d, the 55th lost 153 men killed, wounded and missing.
About May 15, the regiment became a part of the 2nd Division, and remained in that bri- gade until the end of its term of service. The regiment was present at the battle of Gettysburg. The division was posted first on Cemetery Hill, but was moved subsequently to the left of the Baltimore pike. The battle line of the regiment was not engaged, but the skirmish line was sub- ject, most of the time, to a severe fire. The 55th lost about fifty men in the battle. At Look- out Mountain, the regiment being on picket. it was not in the early part of the engagement, and sustained no loss. In the battle of Mission Ridge the corps formed line to the left and front of Fort Hood, and, moving forward rapidly, drove the Rebel skirmish line beyond the East Tennes- see railroad. On the afternoon of the 25th of November. 1863, the 55th was posted on the ex- treme left, and guarded the flank during the re- mainder of the battle.
On January 1, 1864, 319 men of the regi- ment re-enlisted; and after a furlough returned to Lookout Valley. The 11th and 12th corps were consolidated about this time, and became the 20th, and the 55th formed a part of tlie 3rd Bri- gade of the 3rd Division. On May 2, the regi- ment started on the Atlanta campaign, and par- ticipated in all the battles in which the 20th corps was engaged. It suffered severely at the battle of Resaca May 15, losing upward of 90 men. It was engaged at Cassville, Dallas, New Hope Church, Marietta, and Kenesaw; was also engaged at the battle of Peach Tree' Creek July 20. During the siege of Atlanta, the 55th occu- pied a place in the line. The regiment from .\t- lanta, November 15, moved toward the sea coast. and entered Savannah on the 21st. In January. 1865, it started on the campaign of the Carolinas At the battle of Smith's farm, March 16. it lost thirty-six men killed and wounded. It was at Goldsboro and at Raleigh, and participated in the grand review. The reginient was mustered out at Louisville, Ky., July 11, 1865.

WOOD COUNTY, OIIIO.
The One Hundred and Seventeenth Infantry and First Heavy Artillery (three years). The regiment was organized as the 117th Infantry at Camp Portsmouth, September 15, 1862, with eight companies, and came under the colonelcy of Chancey G. Hawley. It served in varions parts of Kentucky in the fall of 18G2, and spring of 1863. In May, 1863, the regiment was changed into the First Heavy Artillery Ohio Vol- unteers, and recruited to the maximum strength of that organization. A number of men from Jackson and Perry townships, of Wood county, served in Company L of this organization, among whom was John Foreman, who became ist Lieu- tenant, and was promoted Quarter-master of the regiment.
The regiment constructed the fine and exten- sive fortifications for eight miles around Coving- ton and Newport, making Cincinnati one of the strongest fortified cities in the Union. During the fall and winter of 1863-64 the regiment, in battalion detachments, was engaged in guard duty at various points in Kentucky. On Febru- ary 19, 1864, it started under orders through heavy snow and extreme cold over the mount- ains to Knoxville, Tenn., arriving there March 9. Through that summer, and until in September, the regiment was engaged in guarding the rail- roads through Tennessee. It subsequently par- ticipated in foraging and fighting guerrillas throughout East Tennessee and North Carolina. It formed a part of the Ist Brigade, 4th Division, Army of the Cumberland, and was engaged in guarding mountain passes, and guarding cap- tured points in Virginia and North Carolina. After the surrender of Lee and Jackson, the regi- ment saw service in the Carolinas, Georgia and Tennessee. It was mustered out at Knoxville, Tenn., July 25, 1865.
The One Hundred and Eighty-ninth (one year) was organized at Camp Chase, Ohio, March 5, 1865, with Henry D. Kingsbury, Colonel. Wood county had a good representation in Com- pany G, of which Thomas A. Gorrill, of the county, was ed Lieutenant.
The regiment immediately left for Huntsville, Ala. Several companies were placed along the Memphis & Charleston railroad between Steven- son and Decatur, and were engaged in guarding bridges and building stockades. One company was posted at Whitesburg, one at Claysville, and Guntersville, on the Tennessee river, and one re- mained at Huntsville. On June 20, the regi- ment was concentrated at Huntsville, and per-
formed post duty until September 25, when it was ordered to Nashville, and there was mus- tered out.
One Hundred and Twenty-Eighth (three years) was organized at Columbus, Johnson's Island, and Camp Cleveland, Ohio, from Decem- ber 7, 1861, to January 8, 1864, to serve three years. Four companies -- A, B, C and D -- of the organization, were originally known as the "Hoff- man Battalion," raised at different times in 1862, which, before the time of forming the regiment, was under the command of a lieutenant-colonel and major. Six new companies were mustered in at Camp Taylor between the 8th and 15th of January, 1864. The four old companies had been on duty at Johnson's Island nearly all the time since their muster-in; but had frequently furnished detachments for service elsewhere, including a short and very active campaign in pursuit of Rebel troops in West Virginia in 1862. Wood county was represented in the 128th in Compan- ies B, C and D, a few men serving from various parts of the county. Lieut. George W. Hollen- beck, of Companies C and A, respectively, was from Perrysburg. The regiment was chiefly oc- cupied at the frontier posts of Johnson's Island and Sandusky, and its service necessarily involves much of the military history of those posts. It was mustered out at Camp Chase July 10, 1865.
In addition to Wood's representation in the regiments whose history is outlined in the above sketches. her gallant and patriotic sons were scattered through various other Ohio commands. and, as set forth in the introductory remarks, they were found in a number of the organizations of other States. A glance at the roster will reveal that among the other Ohio commands men from Wood were enrolled in the S4th, froth, 193d. 195th, 197th, 99th. 123d, 66th, Sist. 11th. 101st and 126th.
ROSTER OF WOOD COUNTY SOLDIERS.
It will be observed that the following rosters of Wood county's soldiers in the war of the Re- bellion have, in main, been prepared by veterans of the county. They have furnished the names of the soldiers, and the records, so far as they could be found, have been added from the Roster of Ohio Soldiers. It has been the purpose to place the names of soldiers in the respective town- ships in which they lived and were identified at

the time of enlistment. Where men lived close to township lines, and questions arose as to the townships in which they belonged, the men them- selves were seen, when living, or were written to, members of the immediate family or near neigh- bors consulted, and the men placed as it became evident that they should be from such sources of information. Aside from the men whose names are given in the different townships as having been identified with the preparation of each roster, many others have been seen, and still others written to, and all possible efforts made at completeness.
BLOOM TOWNSHIP.
The names in the following list were furnished by a committee of veterans of Bloomdale, who had the benefit of a record of the soldiers of the township, which were prepared in 1866, by W. S. Richard, a resident of Bloomdale, then a school teacher of the township. Mr. Richard prepared the list of soldiers by school districts, and there- fore quite accurately; to the committee's list of names the record of each soldier was added, then all was submitted in typescript, for additions and corrections, to Messrs. Richard, Solether, Shan- nabarger, Whitacre and others.
