Connell's Brigade.
Brannan's Division ... Thomas' Corps.
Colonel John M. Connell.
September 19, 1863 - 10 a.m. 1st Position

82nd Indiana - Colonel Morton C. Hunter.
17th Ohio - Lieutenant Colonel Durbin Ward.
31st Ohio - Lieutenant Colonel Frederick W. Lister.
38th Ohio - Colonel Edward H. Phelps.
1st Michigan Light Artillery, Battery D - Captain Josiah W. Church


Three regiments and the Battery of this Brigade formed the reserve of Brannan's Division, the 38th Ohio being retained as train guard. Upon moving into action the 31st Ohio was sent to the left of Croxton's Brigade and became heavily engaged there. The 82d Indiana, the 17th Ohio and the Battery supported the right of Van Derveer's Brigade. The 17th Ohio supported the 9th Ohio of Van Derveer's command in a charge by which the latter recaptured Battery H, 5th U.S. Artillery.

Church's Battery, supported by the 82d Indiana, assisted in the repulse of Govan's and Walthall's Brigades of Liddell's Division which had broken the lines of King's Brigade of Baird's Division.

Immediately thereafter Church's Battery was heavily engaged on Van Derveer's line north of the Ringgold Road in the final repulse of Forrest's forces which had passed to the Union left and rear and suddenly



assaulted from that direction.

Upon the close of the engagement in this portion of the field the Brigade assembled about 2 P.M. with the rest of Brannan's Division upon the glade north and east of the Kelly field, whence it moved at 5 p.m. to the Dyer field to assist in restoring the lines about the Brotherton house.
