9th & 12th Ohio Volunteer Cavalry Regiments
Note: My original sources suggest that these were US Cavalry Regiments
However, the 7th, 8th, 9th & 10th US Cavalry Regiments were not authorized until 28 Jul 1866
Therefore: my best guess is that the reference must be to Ohio Regiments of the same number!Company A
