Still trying to determine any role played by 36th OHIO at the bridge, but found two more conflicting statements... Dennis Frye's ANTIETAM REVEALED states (on...
OR 19/1: 471-472 HEADQUARTERS SECOND BRIGADE, KANAWHA DIVISION, Mouth of Antietam Creek, September 20, 1862. CAPTAIN: I have the honor to report that on the...
Based on the OR Report provided by Todd, I am going with the assumption that the 36th OHIO remained in reserve during the assault on the bridge. Unless someone...

Are there any memorials at Antietam to New Hampshire units (tablets, markers, monuments)? I am having hard time tracking moves of 6th and 9th NH east of the...
