(Three Years)

The Nineteenth left its camp Sept. 14th for Cincinnati,
Ohio, and became a part of the First Division, Army of the
Ohio. In January, 1862, the regiment was a part of Baird's
Division, Army of Kentucky, which afterwards formed a part of
the Army of the Cumberland.

The first serious engagement in which the Nineteenth
participated was at Thompson's Station, Tenn., March 5, 1863,
where it displayed those qualities of heroism that afterwards
distinguished this regiment on many a hard fought field.

The Nineteenth with the other regiments of the brigade was
furiously assaulted by a confederate force under General Van
Dorn, estimated 18,000 strong and a sanguinary conflict ensued.
The confederates made three separate charges upon the brigade
which were gallantry repulsed, in one of which the Nineteenth
captured the colors of a Mississippi regiment. The engagement
lasted five hours until the ammunition was exhausted and the
overwhelming number of the confederates made it necessary to
surrender. The loss of the Nineteenth in this engagement was
113 killed and wounded. Nor did the Union troops surrender
until the enemy had paid dearly for his victory.

After the officers had been exchanged and the enlisted men
paroled, the regiment was reorganized at Camp Chase, Ohio, and
in June returned to Nashville and took part in the advance upon
Tullahoma. The Nineteenth assisted in fortifying McMinnville,
Tenn., in October, and at that time was in the Second Brigade,
Third Division, Twentieth Corps.

The regiment was employed on the fortification about
McMinnville in building bridges and block houses until May,
when it joined General Sherman's army on the Atlanta Campaign.

At Resaca, Ga., May 15, 1864, the Nineteenth made a
desperate charge upon the enemy's line and almost in the nature
of a forlorn hope gallantly captured a battery, but at a
fearful loss of life. Colonel Gilbert was mortally wounded and
the regiment lost 80 officers and men killed and wounded.
Major E. A. Griffin succeeded to the command of the regiment
after the death of Colonel Gilbert, which occurred May 24th,
and the 25th of May fought a severe engagement at New Hope
Church, Ga., with a loss of over 50 killed and wounded. The
Nineteenth took an active part during the entire campaign,
engaging the enemy at Golgotha Church, where Major Griffin was
mortally wounded, at Culp's Farm, and at Peach Tree Creek, near
Atlanta, where it was assailed by the enemy and lost 40 in
killed and wounded in repulsing the attack. Upon the surrender
of Atlanta, the Nineteenth moved into the city and remained
until October.

Major Baker succeeded to the command of the regiment and
when General Sherman started with his army on his march from
"Atlanta to the Sea," the Nineteenth was still a part of the
Second Brigade, Third Division, Twentieth Corps, and moved by
way of Madison, Louisville, and Millen upon Savannah.

After the fall of Savannah, the Nineteenth, under command
of Major Anderson, started on the campaign through the
Carolinas. It shared the long marches and vicissitudes of
Sherman's army and arrived before Averysboro, N. C., Jan. 16,
1865, where the confederate Generals Johnson and Hardee had
thrown up strong works and massed their infantry to oppose
General Sherman's farther advance. The brigade of which the
Nineteenth formed a part, was ordered to storm the works and by
a gallant charge carried them, taking many guns and prisoners.
This was the last hard fought battle in which the Nineteenth
was engaged as General Lee surrendered the army of northern
Virginia to General Grant April 9th, and General Johnson
surrendered his army to General Sherman a few days later.

The Nineteenth marched from Bentonville to Raleigh, and
then to Alexandria, Va., and participated in the grand review
of Sherman's army at Washington, D. C., May 24th.

The Nineteenth was mustered out of service June 10, 1865,
and arrived at Detroit, Mich., the 13th, when it was paid off
and disbanded.

The Nineteenth was in engagements at Thompson's Station,
Tenn., March 5, 1863; Nashville and Chattanooga Railroad,
Tenn., October 5, 1863; Resaca, Ga., May 15, 1864; Cassville,
Ga., May 19, 1864; New Hope Church, Ga., May 25, 1864;
Golgotha, Ga., June 15, 1864; Culp's Farm, Ga., June 22, 1864;
Peach Tree Creek, Ga., July 20, 1864; siege of Atlanta, Ga.,
July 22 to September 2, 1864; Savannah, Ga., December 11, 18,
20, 21, 1864; Averysboro, N. C., March 16, 1865; Bentonville,
N. C. March 19, 1865.
