JACKSON COUNTY AND THE THIRTY
SIXTH,

|
We give the muSter-rollS of the two
companies sent by Jakson County in the
Thirty-siXth Ohio Infantry. Want of
space prevents our giving full history
of this gallant old regiment No regi-
ment in all the service won greater dis
tinction for valiant services. This regi-
ment was one of the best drilled regi-
ments-possibly the best drilled regiment
among the Ohio troops. Col. George
Crook, regular army officer, was placed
in command of this fine regiment, and en-
forced military discipline with that firm
ness and minuteness that made it a regi-
ment of perfect soldiers. 1t is not neces-
sary at this time to follow the brave reg
iment through all the long series of bat
ties, skirmishes, marches and privations.
The brave boys received their baptism
of fire" early, and ever afterward the Thlr-
ty-Sixth was to be found where fighting
was thickest and hottest. They were in
most of the heavy fighting in the Army
of West Virginia; they went to Rose
Grams and participated in Chickamauga-
here they were surrounded, and Turchin's
brigade, in which the Thirty-Sixth served,
was selected as the one to cut the way
through the Rebel lines, Gen. Thomas
himself going through the way made pos
sible and passable by the gallant infant
ry Gen. Turchin left his horse on the
field but he and his brave men were sue
cessful. The boys were with Grant at
Mission Ridge. and after that returned to
their former field of operations, in Vir-
ginia. Whenever the regiment met the
Rebels, there was sure to be trouble. In
January, 1865, the regiment re-enlisted as
veterans, consolidated with the 34th Ohio.
The regiment was mustered out at Wheel
ing, West Va, July 9th, 1865, having
served faithfully and bravely, for nearly
four years. The record of the gallant old
36th is without stain. -Four years of
gallant fighting for Union, Liberty, Law!
No duty was ever considered too danger
Gus. no task too great Many of the brave
boys who went out full of life and hope,
never returned-but not one of them is
forgotten, nor will any be forgotten while
reason and love of liberty remains in the
human family. 1t is glory enough for
any man to be able to say: Il was mem
ber of the Thirty-Sixth Ohiop'
