Regimental History
OHIO

(One Year)

One Hundred and Seventy-fifth Infantry. - Col., Wesley R. Adams;

This regiment was organized at Camp Dennison in Oct., 1864, to serve for one year. It was ordered to Columbia, Tenn., where it performed post and garrison duty in the town, and in guarding the Tennessee & Alabama railroad. In the advance of Hood one of the regiment's outposts south of Columbia was captured, while the remainder of the regiment fell back to Franklin and took part in the battle at that place on Nov. 30. It then fell
back to Nashville and took position in Fort Negley, where it remained during the battle. On Dec. 25 it was again ordered to Columbia, where it engaged in the usual garrison duties and in  guarding the railroad bridges. It was mustered out on June 27, 1865, in accordance with orders from the war department.
