107th Ohio Infantry

The 107th Ohio came from around Cleveland including the counties of Cuyahoga, Defiance, Erie, Lorain, Stark, and Wayne in the summer of 1862. The commander at Gettysburg was Capt. John M. Lutz (1829-1891) a Bavaria Germany native and shoemaker in Cleveland.

The simple monument “a token of Ohio’s gratitude” stands on Barlow’s Knoll. Markers are also located on East Cemetery Hill for this regiment. This regiment suffered very heavy casualties at Gettysburg.
