  • John Kell (1817-1862) - Lieutenant Colonel, Field & Staff, 2nd Ohio Infantry Regiment
    • Beers History of Warren County
      page 350

      "Capt. John Kell's company, which, before the war, had been organized as a militia company, called the Franklin Grays, was the first company to leave the county for service under the telegraphic call for troops."
      page 541
      "Col. John Kell was a native of Germany. He spent his life mostly in America, and when the Mexican war broke out was a resident of Steubenville. He came to Franklin about 1856, and opened a tailor shop. He was made Postmaster by Buchanan. Having been in the Mexican war, his military proclivities manifested themselves in the interest he felt in all military affairs. He organized a company, which, from their uniform, was called the Franklin Greys—Captain, J. Kell; First Lieutenant, P. S. Turner; Second Lieutenant, O. C. Maxwell; Orderly, I. M. Snell. This company became celebrated for its proficiency in drill, and when the war broke out, almost all of its members enlisted and the company retained its organization. When they returned from the three-months' service, he was appointed Lieutenant Colonel of the Second Ohio Volunteer Infantry, and entered the Service. He was killed at the battle of Stone River. His body was brought home and buried with Masonic rites in the cemetery east of the canal."
      page 547
      "Franklin enjoys the distinction of sending out one of the earliest, as well as one of the best-drilled, and best-equipped companies in the early history of the war. As soon as the call of the President was made for troops, in April, 1861, Capt. Kell called for volunteers, and almost all his entire company, the Franklin Greys, at once responded. Those who did not wish to go easily found others to take their places. The citizens at once determined to uniform the men, and, in less than a week, the company, uniformed and numbering more than a hundred men, was in Columbus, Ohio. They were assigned to the First Ohio and became Company B of that regiment. They were assigned to duty in and near Washington. They were sent out as skirmishers at Bull Run, and one of the company fired the first shot in that battle, having discovered an artillery man of the Southern army pulling brush from in front of a masked battery and his fire brought a return shot from the battery. In this battle, the company had one man, A. B. Spader, captured by the rebels, and one blinded by a fragment of a shell. After their discharge, most of the company re-enlisted—a great many in the Second Ohio with Capt O. C. Maxwell."
    • Hardesty's Military History of Ohio, Warren County Edition, page 315
      "John Kell Post, No. 241.
      This Post was chartered June 29, 1882, and is located at Franklin.  It is named for Colonel John Kell, late of the Second Ohio Volunteer Infantry.  Sprung from a line of soldiers, having himself been in the Mexican war, of a high spirit and dauntless courage, John Kell was fitted to be a leader of volunteers of '61.  Enrolling Company F, First Ohio, for three months' service, with a pledge "to be in the struggle to its end," he joined early friends in organizing the Second Ohio Volunteer Infantry, three years, becoming its lieutenant-colonel.  His service ending with his fall at Stone River, summed up the best results of a strong, resolute manhood."
