The 14th Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry was a 3-year regiment, having had previously organized for three months service, but the soldiers who reenlisted became the nucleus of the new 14th Ohio. In August 23, 1861, the 14th departed Toledo for Cincinnati, Ohio for movement to Frankfort, Kentucky. Campaigning in the Western Theater, it is identified as one of the Fox 300 Fighting Regiments. REFERENCES: DORN OH 143; RYAN 111: "This regiment was raised in and around Toledo; James B. Steedman was Colonel until July 17, 1862, when he was promoted to be a Brigadier-General. This brief little history is a clearly written record without any reference to details or official information. It is a narrative of the progress and actions of the regiment during its service and that only in a most general way. It contains also a roll of members of the regiment both in the three months' and three years' service." FOX 300 pg 314.
