Enlistment Drive for 72nd Regiment in Sandusky County
In Fremont Ohio on December 20 1861 volunteers flood the appeal for the 72nd Regiment with over 800 enlistees, urging rapid completion to 1000. The notice describes camp Croghan tents clothing and a call to Sandusky valley residents to join or support families of volunteers. Army correspondence from Kentucky reports a skirmish near the Cumberland River with German Ohio troops aiding Union lines and heavy rebel losses, plus a dramatic account of field deaths and Confederate casualties.
