195th Regiment, Ohio Infantry

Organized at Camp Chase, Ohio, and mustered in March 14 to March 20, 1865. Moved to Harper's Ferry, W. Va., March 22-25; thence to Winchester, Va., and assigned to Brooks' Provisional Division, Army of the Shenandoah. Ordered to Alexandria, Va., April 28 and provost duty there till December. Mustered out December 18, 1865.

Regiment lost during service 32 Enlisted men by disease.

Usually, Confederates who took the oath did so to escape prison and the war. Most were sent out west to fight the indians. From the looks of it, these Confederates, aka Galvanized Yankees, took the oath and went to West Virginia for guard duties.
