I'm adding the finishing touches to my Forts, Camps and Batteries of Tennessee and came across a few sites that aren't in the book as they are in different states.

Skirmish at Crawfish Springs near Lee & Gordon Mills, Georgia involved the 19th Ohio Volunteer Infantry.

Skirmish on the Villa Rica Road at Dallas, Georgia.? The 46th Ohio Volunteer Infantry used .56-56 Spencers.

33rd Ohio Volunteer Infantry camped at Bacon Creek, Kentucky from December 1861 till February 1862 with the 10th Wisconsin, 2nd and 21st Ohio V.I.? Regiment suffered with measles and smallpox.? I believe uniforms of the sick and dead were burned to kill Smallpox, might be a cache site.
That's a few sites.? Maybe it'll be a help to a few of you looking for a site to research and maybe its not developed.
Source:? Ohio in the War by Whitlaw Reid, 1868.
