The 111th Pennsylvania Regiment was principally recruited in the counties of Erie, Warren, and Crawford on September 2, 1861. Throughout the war the 111th was involved in many battles, including Cedar Mountain, Antietam, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Lookout Mountain, Missionary Ridge, the Battle & Surrender of Atlanta, and the Surrender of Savannah.
