Hello,
Welcome to 2nd Volunteer Infantry Regiment at Rootsweb Message Boards. This board is for those researching the 2nd Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry during the American Civil War. This is an informal, no flame/no spam group, focusing on genealogy and the history of this civil war unit. Please feel free to post your ancestor's name and information, queries, sources, anecdotes, family stories, the culture of the times, or other information which may be of interest to the group. I created this board as a means of finding others who are researching this unit so that research can be shared and hopefully a better glimpse of the soldiers and their families, their daily lives, and the activities of the 2nd Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry can be gained. No post is too trivial as long as it relates to the soldiers or the history of this military unit. I have also created a corresponding message board at Yahoo Groups at:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/2ndRegimentOhioInfantry

I have also created a regular Mailing List at Rootsweb, OH-2NDINF, in the Civil War category. To summarize, the three new groups are at: Rootsweb Mailing Lists, Rootsweb Message Boards, and Yahoo Groups...each of them for the 2nd Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry.
