Key:
Artillery listings, in green, are in the following format:
(x gun type)
S = Smoothbore
H = Howitzer
N = Napoleons
WR = Wiard Rifles
PR = Parrott Rifles
RR = Rodman Rifles
Leader status listings, in red are used in the following way:
w = Wounded
w-mortally = Mortally wounded
k = Killed
c = Captured
d = Disabled
t = Temporarily commanding
Note:
On all of the OOB’s which I have seen dealing with the Army of the Ohio, the total manpower is listed as 17,918 men. I come up with a total of 20,397 men. Several of this Armies units did not make it to the battlefield on time, so the 17,918 manpower figure for men engaged is probably close.
