Frank, Did your cousin look at microfilm? I have the 1889 set of The Official Roster of the Soldiers of the State of Ohio in the War of the Rebellion 1851-1865 . The lists of soldier's names from each company are in alphabetical order with the exception of the officers. Those are listed first according to rank. I looked again at each company, and the officers as well, and did not see any name close to your Samuel's. I also checked my CD ROM which lists all soldiers from every state, but the only Samuel Wilgus I found was in the 10th PA. He enlisted early (1861). I wonder if your Samuel reenlisted, would he still have had to have been mustered out with the 149th first? Perhaps someone else might know the answer to this. I did read that the 149th was composed of the 27th Ohio National Guard from Ross County and the 55th Battalion from Clinton County. The Regiment was organized at Camp Denison from the 8th-11th of May, 1864, to serve 100 days. The Regiment was mustered out 30 Aug., 1864. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
