PENNSYLVANIA ONE HUNDRED and NINETY-SECOND INFANTRY (One Year) One Hundred and Ninety-second Infantry. Col., William B. Thomas; Lieut.-Col., Benjamin L. Taylor; Majs. C. W. McClintock, Henry J. Snyder. This regiment was recruited from the 20th Pa. militia, which had been called into the service of the state, under command of Col. Thomas in 1862 and again in 1863. It rendezvoused at Camp Cadwalader, Philadelphia, where fourteen companies were organized and mustered into the U. S. service on July 7, 1864, for a term of 100 days. On the 23d it left the state for Baltimore and on Aug. 1 was ordered to garrison Fort McHenry, where it was drilled in heavy artillery duty. About the middle of the month it moved to Johnson's island, Lake Erie, but remained there only a few days when it was ordered to Gallipolis on the Ohio river. Here it was employed in guarding and forwarding supplies accumulated for the Union armies. On Sept. 30 Cos. M, A, B, F, D, L and G, under Maj. McClintock, were ordered to Weston, W. Va., where they served under Gen. Kelley until the close of their term of enlistment. On the expiration of their term of service the two battalions proceeded to Philadelphia, where the command was mustered out on Nov. 11, 1864 . The regiment was reorganized for one year's service with the following officers: Col., William W. Stewart; Lieut-Col., Thomas McLeester; Maj., William F. Johnston. October 18, 1864, a sufficient number of men from the 100 days' organization to form one company re-enlisted for one year's service. In the spring of 1865 nine new companies were organized at Harrisburg and proceeded to Harper's Ferry, where a regimental organization was effected, which continued to be known as the 192nd of the line. On the opening of the spring campaign the regiment moved up the valley to Staunton and Lexington, but saw little fighting, as the war was practically ended. It remained in service in the Middle Military Division until Aug. 24, when it was mustered out. Source: The Union Army, vol. 1
