26TH REGIMENT, O. V. I.


The Twenty sixth Ohio was organ- ized at Camp Chase, in July, 1861, and was recruited from the counties of Butler, Ross, Delaware, Guernsey, Noble, Mahoning, Champaign, Sciota and Madison. Edward P. Fyffe was made colonel of the regiment. It performed its first service in the up- per Kanawha Valley, where it

remained until January, chiefly engaged in scouting duty. Trans- ferred soon after to the Department of the Ohio (soon named the De- partment of the Cumberland), it was placed in Brigadier-General T. J. Wood's division, of which it con- tinued a part until October, 1863, when it became a part of Wagner's Brigade, of Sheridan's division of the Fourth Corps.


The regiment formed a part of the column of advance on Nashville, and shared the hardships of General Buell's army in its advance to re- lieve General Grant at Pittsburgh Landing. From the Tennessee to the Ohio, and thence to Cumberland Gap, in the Fall of 1862, the regi- ment did its whole duty in the forced marches of Buell and Bragg. It participated in the en- gagements of Murfreesboro, Stone River (where it lost one-third of its men), Tullahoma, Shelbyville, Chattanooga, Chickamauga . (where nearly three-fifths of its men engaged were either killed or wounded), Mission Ridge and Look- out Mountain, and the siege of Knoxville. "This (Knoxville) cam- paign proved to be the most severe of any yet experienced. They marched barefooted over frozen ground, and bivouacked without shelter in midwinter, clad in sum- mer dress, with half rations, on the desolate and dreary hillsides of east Tennessee. Yet, even then, with elbows out, pants worn half way to the knees, socks and shirts gone to shreds, hungry and shivering, in the bitter cold of January 1, 1864, the


Twenty-sixth, almost to a man, re- enlisted for three years more."


After its furlough, the regiment rejoined the Fourth Corps at Bridge- port. Tenn., and thence took part in Sherman's Atlanta Campaign. par- ticipating in the battles at Resaca, Kenesaw, Peach-Tree Creek, Jones- boro, and others less important. At Franklin and Nashville it main- tained its well-won reputation for valor. Sent south to Texas, it was mustered out of the service Oct. 21, 1865.
