Foreword

This publication contains only a tiny fraction of the extant manuscript materials relating to Ohio and Ohioans in the Civil War. However. it is a first step in locating. describing. and compiling all known materials into one database. The PWP086S for publishing this finding tool at such an incomplete stage are multiple. but simple: Fint, we have found that when one waits Wltil a finding tool is complete, it never gets published. There always is more to be found Meanwhile, many genealogists who do not have ready access to resOlU'ces for locating manuscript collections, or who are intimidated by the mountains of records fOWld in numerous published resources, such as the National Union CataJog ofManwcript Collections. miss many opportunities for finding their ancestors and placing them in a particular historical context Therefore, this small beginning is the first publication of an on-going project of the Preservation Conunittee of The Ohio Genealogical Society to locate and make accessible all manuscript materials relevant to individnals with Ohio connections regardless of time period, location of repository, or fonnat type.

We have heard of numerous individuals who possess unique and valuable "family" materials, but who do not recognize the importance of their documents to genealogical and historical research. Then, too, there are smaller institutions and organizations who lack sufficient staff or interest to respond to questionnaires about their collections with the result that research "gems" remain unidentified to a global community of researchers. If genealogists nationwide join in the effon to locate and share infonnation, a vast amount of manuscript materials can be identified and made accessible. That is a second purpose of this publication: to encourage owners of manuscript materials to preserve their family manuscripts by placing them in a repository that is dedicated to their protection and to assuring public access.

Still another purpose of this publication is to provide name and subject indexes for identified and described manuscript collections. Since many fmding tools to collections do not provide indexes, it often is difficult for genealogists to detennine the relevancy of materials for their research problems. While we reeo gnize the inadequacy of this publication's indexes, it is our hope that the users of this publication will assume a portion of the joyous burden of fully index.irtg the manuscripts included herein and make those tools available to the genealogical community.

Ji'onnat -- Records DQJe - 1861-1866, 1875-1876. 1898 Slzt! - 29 cubic ft. (109 v.) Dtlcription .- This series contains 109 volumes of correspondence covering the period from 1861-1865, which amounts In approximately 45.000 letters. The letters in each volume are grouped by time period (i.e. June-July, 1861), but are not in chronological order. Dates overlap among volwnes (i.e. Volume 22 covers the period from December 1861-January 1862, and Volume 23 coven the period from November 1861-January 1862). Frequentl)'. there are two letters on a page. Most volumes are page numbered from the bottom to the top. The letters C8JT1e from throughout Ohio and outside of the stale, and were written by county military committees. local officials, military commanders, politicians. recruiters. eoc. Taken as a whole, the letters shed considerable light on the difficuJties Ohio faced in raising, equipping, and training troops, and maintaining those troops in the field. Fonowing Abraham Lincoln's caU for men after the fall Dr Ft. Sumter, Ohio quic.kly complied.. However, 88 many of the letters illustrate. Ohio was ilI­prepared to deal with the volunteers once she had them. For example, there are references in the letters to the troops being without blankets and clothing, and drilling with wooden sticJcJ because they had no anns. If the troops had arms, they frequently had no ammunition. An examination of the letters also reveals that there was much confusion on the part of recruiters and military commanders regarding their authority and duties. The letters contain numerous requests for clarification of even the most basic of issues such as when a 9Oldier's pay commenced. AA some of the letters illuslrate. recruiters and county mililary committees were continuaUy plagued by states bordering Ohio recruiting and hiring substitutes in Ohio without permission. History -- Series 147 was transferred to the Ohio Historical Society prior to 1929. Conservation work has begun on the letter books in Series 147. After the volwnes are taken apart, non-clear tape is removed, the letters are wuhed and deacidified, and the letters are mended and encapsulated when necessary. Series 147 has been identified as the first Archives,lLibrary Division collection to be scanned and converted to digital format. CalelldtJrllnventory -. A container list is available. PreJ)atBl:ion of a detailed description of the entire series., including a caIendar for each volume of correspoodence, is wUlerway. References in the correspondence to life on the hotnefront and the battlefront family life, women's hi!tory, community history, rebgion. ethnicity.

as far as they go, The synop&eS adequately deacribe many of the routine letlers checked.. Howevet. more detailed descriptions are needed for the lumtantive letters checked. For those letters included in rhe inde1. daleS written and received are not noted. The names in the index are usoally those of the correspondentl. but in a few cases the names are the subject matter of the letters, Topia covered in the 93 volwnes of correspondence included in the index are many and varied. For exampJe. there are letten pertaining to battles such as Pint Manassas (Bull Run) , Fort Donelson. Murfreesboro (Stones River), Perryville. Pittsburg Landing (Shilob), and Vicksburg: border defellse; camps includinl Camp Chase, Camp Cleveland., Camp Delaw8let Camp Dennison, Camp Mansfield. Camp Steubenville. and Camp Toledo; COlDlty military committees; disloyalty; the draft; ethnic companies and regiments; Morgan's Raid; the pay of soldiers; priaoners of war. promotiOM; recruiting; and subsisleDce (suppUes) for the soldiers. An examination of the 93 volumes of c:orteSpOndence included in the index revealed that the volume nwnbenJ were not noted on the letten. Since the bindinll of the volwncs are to be cut as part of the conservation process. it waa decided to recmd the volume number In pencil on each letter. This numbering proceu will ensure that the original order of the 1etten is maintained and preserve the IJIefuiness of the index.
