Nice Job! I have been reading any post I can find for 30 years about the 77th Ohio as my GG-Grandfather's two sons were shot at Shiloh. You have them listed on your list. Pvt Otty Powell and his brother Christopher. ( Co. I )

The official roster has them listed incorrectly as they both died from their wounds. Both were transported to a Louisville, Ky. hospital by steamboat. Christopher was shot in the face and died on April 14,1862 and is buried in Cave Hill National cemetery. (grave 515)

Otty was taken home to Monroe County Ohio where he died on April 26,1862 from his wounds.

I have pictures of both graves if you want a copy and some other info. Thanks Bill Rushin

I find it interesting that Charles W. Wharf (my gggreat-grandfather), Company K, is listed as "missing"; he was apparently eventually found, because he lived until 1924 (he's buried in Iowa).

I was glad to see this web page , I was searching for monument pics of the Battle of Shiloh, the 77th Regiment of Ohio, when I found it. You have my G Grandfather Joseph Hoskins listed third on the injured list, he was shot in the left shoulder on the first day, I have a copy of his discharge, I just recently acquired and set his Civil War marker on his grave, he lived until 1918, but couldn`t use his left arm. Great job, Thank You

Joseph Hoskins, the third on your list of wounded is my great grandfather, he was shot in the left shoulder the first day of battle, he lived till 1918 in Duffy , Oh, He never regained use of his arm but whould go to New Martinsville, WV and gather the mail for the Duffy residents, I recently acquired a civil war headstone for him and placed it on his gravesite.

Jacob Prest my Great Great Grandfather survived throughout the war. In 1871 he applied for a disability for war related illness. He is buried in the Civil War circle in Martins Ferry.

My great grandfather Divers B. McElwee and his brother Burton (Budd) D. McElwee served in companies D &H of the 77th Ohio from mid-1863 until the end of the war. My great grandfather was injured at the Battle of Marks Mill but was able to avoid capture by the rebels. Both my gr-grandfather and uncle received pensions for their Union service. I have my gr-grandfathers discharge certificate and his complete pension file. His pension file contains 189 pages beginning in 1889 when he first applied and ended in 1931 when my gr-grandmother died (she received a widows pension after my gr-grandfather died in 1916). My gr-grandfather is buried in Pocahontas County WV where he settled after the war.
