7th OVI Monument

7th OVI Monument
In 1873, the 7th Ohio Volunteer Regiment was honored at Woodland with a monument. The 7th OVI was organized at Camp Taylor in Cleveland as a three-months regiment. It was later reorganized, with many of the same Cuyahoga county men reenlisting, as a three-years regiment at Camp Dennison.

The four Robert Parker Parrott cannons surrounding the monument were used throughout the Civil War. Such weaponry is a rare find today. | Source: Cleveland Memory Project, Cleveland State University Library Special Collections
