During the Civil War, the 63rd Ohio Volunteer Infantry was from Toledo and was a regiment that was noted for service and bravery. This regiment chased Forrest' cavalry on foot and caught him at the Battle of Parker's Crossroads. Infantry catching cavalry....Forrest especially....what a feat...Then at the Battle of Corinth took the brunt of what the Confederate Army could send at them and suffered greater than 55% casualties at that battle. The 63rd made Sherman's march to the sea and protected the army from Wheeler's constant attacks..

How is this relevant? Most of the brave and honorable gene pool of Toledo was killed during the Civil War and the cowards and idiots were left to procreate. It took about five generations to breed out intelligence, honor, common sense and bravery but Toledo did it...the Blade is proof.

Sort of like what happened to France during the Great War.

Company C of the 63rd was recruited in Meigs County, Ohio, and took part in all the battles you mentioned. My gg-grandfather, Samuel McCullough, went through the entire war as a member of Company C.
