The following list of engagements has been compiled from both Elias Moore's diary and "The Official Record".  It is apparent that from Elias's diary, that Co. A was not involved in every skirmish the 114th Ohio is credited with.  It is also clear that not all engagements Co. A. was involved in, were recorded in the "The Official Record".

 Click on each engagement, to read Elias Moore's diary entry of the event.
