I have been trying to locate descendants of the Third OHio Volunteer Cavalry regiment as I myself am a descendant. I have located a group picture of the regiment when it held a reunion on August 22, 1889. I also am a member of the Third Ohio Volunteer Cavalry Descendants Association. We are a group that has as its main goal to keep the memory of the Third alive and well in the state of Ohio for historical purposes for future generations. These men met every year after the Civil War until 1915. They were a group who were a "family," and, believe it or not, the group is becoming a united family. We want to preserve any record, photographs, etc. of the members of the Third. I am very glad that I have found someone else. Finding descendants is very difficult. We are having a meeting on December 14 at 1:00 PM at Firelands Museum in Norwalk, OH. You are welcome to come and bring family. There is a Third Ohio VC website also. These guys were not mere "horse soldiers." They were special. Thank you. Jan
