SIXTY-THIRD INFANTRY
(Three Years)
Sixty-third Infantry. - Col., John W. Sprague; Lieut.-
Cols, William E. Gilmore, Alexander L Haskins, Charles E.
Brown; Majs., James H. Odlin, John W. Fouts, Oscar L. Jackson.
This regiment was organized by the consolidation of two battal-
ions, known as the 22nd and 63d regiments, Ohio volunteer in-
fantry, at Columbus, Marietta and Chillicothe, from Aug., 1861,
to Feb., 1862, and was mustered in for three years. The regi-
ment moved from Marietta in February, under orders to report at
Paducah, Ky., and from there it joined the army of the Missis-
sippi, at Commerce, Mo. The army took up the march for New Ma-
drid, the regiment took part in the reconnaissance on the day
of arrival there, and was under fire for the first time. It
shared in a reconnaissance on March 7, and its services on the
13th were officially recognized in an order from Gen. Pope's
headquarters. It was present in all the movements which re-
sulted in the surrender of Island No. 10; embarked on April 12
on the transport Silver Wave and moved with the army to the
vicinity of Fort Pillow. During the siege of Corinth it took
part in all the operations on the left of Halleck's forces; was
in the reconnaissance beyond Farmington and in the engagement
at that place, sustaining severe loss. When Price's army ad-
vanced toward Iuka the troops fell back to Clear creek, but
when Rosecrans advanced to Jacinto the regiment again marched
for Iuka and was in reserve at the battle there. In the en-
gagement at Corinth the regiment was much exposed, losing in
killed and wounded 48 percent of the officers and men in ac-
tion. It spent the following winter at Corinth and the ensuing
summer in Tennessee. Having re-enlisted and been furloughed
home, it returned to the front and shared in the battle of Re-
saca, Cos. C, H and A being on the skirmish line and among the
first troops to reach the river near the village. The regiment
crossed the Oostanaula, moved to Adairsville and afterward to
Dallas participating in all the actions before that place, and
losing heavily in killed and wounded. It was next under fire
at Kennesaw mountain and sustained its part in all the opera-
tions at that point, being well up to the front the whole time.
It was engaged in the battle of Decatur, losing 3 officers
killed and wounded. It assisted in taking possession of the
Macon railroad south of Atlanta and engaged in the battle of
Jonesboro. From the time the regiment left Chattanooga in May
until September it lost in action 158 men. It moved with Sher-
man on his march from Atlanta to Savannah, participating in all
the dangers and pleasures of that great campaign, thence up
through the Carolinas meeting the enemy at Rivers' bridge and
in the engagement lost 12 men killed and wounded. It fought at
Bentonville, N. C., then moved on to Goldsboro, and after the
surrender of Johnston took the northern route for Washington
and home. It was mustered out on July 8, 1865. During its
term of service it had enrolled an aggregate of 90 commissioned
officers and over 1,500 men, and at its discharge from the
service numbered 22 commissioned officers and 537 men.
