My gr-gr-grandfather was Thomas Henry Taylor and another gr-gr-grandfather was John Wallace Campbell, both of Auglaize, Ohio. I know that John W. Campbell was in the 71st Regiment of the Ohio Volunteer Infantry - other extended family members were also in that regiment. These include Ira Graves Rhodes (son of Asa W. Rhodes), Shadrick Montgomery Jr, Charles H. Montgomery, Asa Rhodes Jr, Bartlett Rhodes, John Taylor, and Ebenezer Spray - I have no idea what any of them looked like!
I have a photograph inherited from my grandfather Taylor of one of the 71st OVI Reunions - it looks like it was taken in front of the G.A.R. hall in Ludlow Falls, Ohio. I would love to identify some of these veterans, including my own relatives! (I know which one is Thomas Taylor and John Wallace Campbell.)
I am not positive of the year, either. Thomas Taylor died 8/18/1889 - I am not sure when the reunion took place that year. There are approximately 85 men, 2 women, and 2 boys in the photo.
Anyone with ideas or info would be appreciated!
