Over 35,000 Ohio National Guardsmen were federalized and organized into regiments for 100 days service in May 1864.

Grant’s push on the Confederate capital of Richmond, Virginia. As events transpired, many units found themselves in combat, stationed in the path of Confederate Gen. Jubal Early’s veteran Army of the Valley during its famed Valley Campaigns of 1864.
