Description | Theodore Tracie's 1874 book, "Annals of the Nineteenth Ohio Volunteer Artillery" recalls soldier life in 1862 in Camp Cleveland (bounded by West 5th, Railway, West 7th and Marquardt) in what is now Tremont. Says that among other diversions, "Baseball games were played on the parade grounds." Camp Cleveland's history can be viewed at tremonthistory.org. It has a map of the camp, and a photo of soldiers playing baseball (one of only two wartime photos of soldiers playing baseball). |
