"My g-g-grandfather Asa Queen, from Morrow County, served briefly in the 13th. He enlisted 31 March 1864 and was mustered in to Company G. (He had previously served in the 96th OVI but was invalided out.) In June 1864 he was standing guard at a local “hotel,” which was such a dive that the commander of Camp Chase detailed soldiers there to prevent attacks by “roughs” and paroled prisoners. A fight broke out and he was injured. After developing black erysipelas, he died on 7 June. I have his widow’s pension file, which is a wealth of information." - Warren County Soldiers Serving in the 13th OVC
