75th Ohio Position
Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: February 21, 2009
Caption: 75th Ohio Position
Additional Description: Looking from the 75th Ohio's left flank marker. The 75th initially held a line along Brickyard Lane (modern Wainwright Avenue). Hays' Confederate brigade focused their attacks on the sector held by the two Ohio regiments. After hand to hand fighting, the Federal line was reestablished here, with the 75th occupying an angle. Today monument (to the right of this photo) is at the peak of the angle. The right flank marker is out of frame to the right along Wainwright Avenue.
