- Q4633961 abstract "The 2nd West Virginia Volunteer Cavalry Regiment served in the Union Army during the American Civil War. The cavalry regiment was organized in Parkersburg, Virginia (now West Virginia) during September 1861. Most of the original members of this regiment were from southeastern Ohio, and planners thought that this regiment would become the 4th Ohio Cavalry. Their application was rejected by the governor of Ohio, so the unit became the 2nd Regiment of Loyal Virginia Volunteer Cavalry. The name was changed to "2nd West Virginia" after the state of West Virginia was created in 1863. The regiment's first serious war experience was gained in early January 1862 in northeastern Kentucky. For the next two years, most of the regiment's fighting was in the mountainous backwoods of what later became West Virginia. The regiment spent much of 1862 in the Kanawha River Valley, often hunting "bushwhackers"—small bands of rebels loyal to the Confederacy. During the Kanawha Campaign in September 1862, the regiment cleared away Confederate cavalry that intended to prevent a retreating Union Army from reaching the safety of Ohio. By 1864, the regiment was part of the Army of West Virginia, and spent much of its time fighting in Virginia. It participated in the last part of General David Hunter's Lynchburg Campaign. It also participated in Union General Sheridan's Shenandoah Valley Campaign, and played an important part in the Third Battle of Winchester. On November 28, 1864, nearly 250 members of the regiment completed their 3-year enlistment and mustered out. The regiment was then reorganized into five companies. By the end of 1864, the regiment was attached to General George Armstrong Custer's 3rd Division, Cavalry Corps, Army of the Potomac. The regiment was present during the Appomattox Campaign, including the Battle of Appomattox Court House and the surrender of Confederate General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. After the war, the regiment was in the Grand Review of the Armies, and was mustered out on June 30, 1865.".
