NOTES. —Organized at Columbus, August 28, 1861, and ordered immediately to West Virginia, where it re mained for one year, during which it was stationed at various points and engaged in several minor affairs with the enemy. In August, 1862, it was ordered to join the army in eastern Virginia, and, passing through Washington, it then joined Pope's Army, at Warrenton Junction. The regiment was in reserve at Manassas, sustaining no loss though under a heavy artillery fire. It marched with General McClellan's Army through Maryland ; it was then in Scammon's Brigade, of Cox's Kanawha Division, this division being then temporarily attached to the Ninth Corps. The regiment lost, at South Mountain, 17 killed, and 53 wounded; at Antietam, 13 killed,49 wounded, and 18 missing, —both color-sergeants being among the killed. The regiment was hotly engaged in both these actions, the fighting at times becoming very close and deadly, bayonets and clubbed muskets being freely used. The Kanawha Division returned to West Virginia soon after the battle of Antietam, and in December, 1862, the regiment moved by transports down the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers to Helena, Ark., where it was assigned to Ewing's (3d) Brigade, Blair's (2d) Division, Fifteenth Corps, in which command it was present at the siege of Vicksburg. In the assault on Vicksburg, May 22, 1863, the regiment lost 6 killed, 43 wounded, and 2 missing. In November, 1863, the division — General Morgan L. Smith commanding — moved to Chattanooga, where it fought at Missionary Ridge. In 1864, the Thirtieth fought in the Atlanta campaign, and then marched with Sherman to the Sea. _09188
