From The History of Clark County, Ohio
Chicago: W.H. Beers & Co., 1881


EIGHTY-SIXTH OHIO VOLUNTEER INFANTRY

This was a three months' regiment, called out by Gov. Tod, in May, 1862, under the call of President Lincoln for 75,000 men. It was organized at Camp Chase on the 11th of June, 1862, and on the 16th, left for Clarksburg, W. Va., where it was stationed during most of its period of service. From this point, various detachments were thrown out over the surrounding country, to watch and guard the approaches to that point, where were stored large amounts of Government property. The service performed was of that order requiring activity and watchfulness, combined with promptness of execution. The Eighty-sixth was mustered out at Camp Delaware, Ohio, on the 24th of September, 1862. Company B., of this regiment, was raised in Clark County.
