Additional Information
Founded during the outbreak of the American Civil War in 1861, Camp Dennison's prime location on the banks of the Ohio River and proximity to Cincinnati made it a central base for Union troops as a training center, recruitment source, and location for launching invasions into Confederate states including Kentucky and Virginia where large encampments of rebel troops were based. This bird's eye perspective was produced by the Strobridge Lithographing Company, which was located in Cincinnati and was one of the most popular firms in the region that created numerous distinct works throughout the latter portions of the nineteenth century.
Named after the Governor of Ohio at the time, Camp Dennison was home to up to fifty thousand Union troops during its active years. The encampment was deactivated with the conclusion of the Civil War in September of 1865. The Waldschmidt-Camp Dennison District was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973 as a historic district, which remains to this day.
