| Manuscript Collection | Save | | 2 | Title: | Nineteenth Ohio Battery Association Records
| | | | Creator: | Nineteenth Ohio Battery Association | | | | Dates: | 1873-1919 | | | | Abstract: | The Nineteenth Ohio Battery Association was an association of American Civil War veterans of the 19th Battery of Ohio Volunteer Light Artillery, which met annually and semi-annually in reunion. The 19th Ohio Battery was recruited in 1862 in Cleveland, Ohio by Captain Joseph C. Shields, and trained in University Heights, Ohio. The battery went by railroad to Cincinnati, and entered the war in Kentucky in pursuit of Confederate cavalry leader Col. James Hunt Morgan. The battery was mustered out of service in June 1865. Many of the reunions were arranged and administered by Frank Gilbert. The collection consists of a minute book of annual reunions, beginning with the 7th (1873) and ending with the 51st (1916), when the association dissolved. The book includes lists of attending members and deceased members. Included is a volume containing a history of the battery during the war, with accounts of battles and campaigns, along with minutes of 14 mid-winter reunions, 1902-1915. Also included is a scrapbook containing reunion programs, obituaries and newspaper clippings, as well as correspondence, postcards, photographs and miscellany. | | | | Call #: | MS 1163 | | | | Extent: | 0.60 linear feet (1 container and 1 oversize volume) | | | | Subjects: | Shields, Joseph C. | United States.

| Manuscript Collection | Save | | 3 | Title: | Cleveland Light Artillery Association Records
| | | | Creator: | Cleveland Light Artillery Association | | | | Dates: | 1856-1922 | | | | Abstract: | The Cleveland Light Artillery Association is a Cleveland, Ohio, association of former members of the Cleveland Light Artillery. The association was formed in 1870 and was composed primarily of veterans of the Civil War. It met annually in reunion to pay tribute to one another and to honor deceased members. It disbanded in 1922. The Cleveland Light Artillery was originally organized in 1839 by 9 members of the Cleveland Grays gun squad, an independent military organization made up of young men chosen from the area's elite families. It was named the Cleveland Light Artillery in 1846, when it was detached from the Grays, and served as an independent artillery militia service until 1860, when it became part of Battery A of the 1st Regiment of the Ohio Volunteer Light Artillery, led by Col. James Barnett. When the Civil War broke out, the Cleveland Light Artillery did an initial 3-month tour of duty from April-July 1861, and was the first Cleveland unit to experience battle (Phillippi) in the war and the first to suffer a casualty. The collection consists of minute books of annual meetings (1870-1922), including lists of members and account records, a book of memorial tributes and biographies of deceased members, a register book of members, including newspaper clippings, and miscellaneous correspondence, invitations, acknowledgments, and locations of burials in Cleveland's Lakeview Cemetery. J.F. Adams was a long-time secretary-treasurer for the association. | | | | Call #: | MS 1600 | | | | Extent: | 0.40 linear feet (1 container) | | | | Subjects: | Barnett, James, 1821-1911. | United States.
