94th Ohio Infantry

The 94th Ohio Infantry, part of the 1st Brigade, 1st Division, 14th Army Corps, was commanded by Major Rue P. Hutchins during the fighting of September 19–20, 1863. On Saturday morning, September 19, with General Baird's Division, the regiment engaged the enemy after advancing three-fourths of a mile east from the Kelly House, but a counterattack by superior numbers forced the division to retire to the line of Reed's Bridge Road. That evening the regiment advanced again with Scribner's and Starkweather's Brigades in support of General Johnson's Division and fought the enemy on the same ground occupied that morning. During the battle on Sunday, September 20, 1863, the regiment fought on this ground until ordered to retire with the division to Rossville. The regiment had 309 present for duty on September 18, 1863, and suffered 46 killed, wounded, and captured on September 19-20, 1863. It was organized at Piqua, Ohio, on August 23-24, 1862, for a term of three years.
