Biography

Brig. Gen. Jack Casement served in the United States Civil War.
Enlisted: 25 Apr 1861
Mustered out: 30 Apr 1865
Side: USA
Regiment(s): 7th Ohio Infantry, 103rd Ohio Infantry, Field & Staff

John was born in Geneva, New York in 1829. He was one of five children of immigrant parents from the Isle of Man. The family moved to Michigan in 1844. John began working at a railroad company as a water boy for track-laying gangs. John then worked on the road gangs and eventually became a foreman and moved to northern Ohio in 1850 to work on the Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati Railroad. In 1853, John started his own business and was contracted to grade the roadbed of the Lake Shore Railroad. John married Frances Marion Jennings in 1857. In 1870, Frances' father, Charles Clement Jennings, built "The Casement House" at "Jennings Place" for John and Frances. It remained in the Casement family until 1953. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.^[1]

Civil War

When the Civil War broke out, John accepted a commision as a Major in the 7th OVI. He resigned in May, due to his wife wanting him home and his disillusionment with officiers of the 7th Regiment who were in the army to serve their own political agenda. In April of 1862 he received a leave of absence "to regain his strength after suffering from fever and backaches."^[2] On 22 Jul 1862 he was unanimously chosen as Colonel of the 103rd OVI by the 11th Military District Committee. In mid-August, Col. Casement attended a war meeting in Medina and gave a short talk to the recruits at a city park. The Medina Gazette wrote that under Col. Casement's direction, "the 103rd would prove itself second to no regiment in the field."^[3] The first action for the 103rd under Col. Casement was to repel the Confederate invasion of Kentucky from 4 Sep 1862-19 Oct 1862. On 25 Sep 1862, about 50 men who were part of the picket line for the Brigade that the 103rd was part of were captured by Confederate Cavalry. This prompted Col. Casement to lecture the regiment on being alert during picket duty. He used profanity during the lecture, which prompted Chaplain Hubbard to speak to him about his use of profanity. Col. Casement replied, "Chaplain, the probabliltiy is that you will keep right on praying, and the probability is that I will keep on swearing; and the probability also is that in a very short time the boys will learn that neither of us mean a damn word we say."^[4] By mid-October the Confederates had left Kentucky and the 103rd was assigned the task of occupying Kentucky. Most of these months were spent in and around Frankfort. On 1 Nov 1862, Col. Casement addressed his men:

"Men, you are all called out for the purpose of listening to a speech by the Hon. J.J. Crittenden of Kentucky. You are all familiar with him as the author of the Crittenden Compromise. Many of us would not give a damn for that Compromise, but it emanated from the brains of a man who possesses as patriotic a heart as can be found in the land. Mr. Crittenden has heard of your fair reputation, and wishes to see and speak to you. I desire he should have the opportunity, and I hope you will bear yourselves in such a manner as not to tarnish that reputation. Whether legitimately or illegitimately obtained, I don't care a cuss--I want you to maintain it."^[5]

In December, 1862, Col. Casement fell ill with Typhoid Fever while at the general court martial trial of Col. Doolittle in Lexington. He would return to the regiment on 22 Dec 1862. By February, 1863, Col. Casement would travel to Cleveland to recover from sickness. He returned to Kentucky in March 1863. The 103rd was on the move from March-August 1863. Col. Casement had the men march for 45 minutes and then rest for 15 minutes which seemed to allow his regiment to handle the marches very well. Col. Casement spent part of these months on Court Martial Duty and was absent from his regiment. During his absence, Lt. Col. Sterling was in charge of the regiment. Col. Casement returned from Court Martial duty in April and was in command on the field on 1 May 1863 when the 103rd held position on Albany Road at the Battle of Monticello, KY. Col. Casement received a furlough from 25 May 1863 through the first week of June. On 9 Aug 1863, the 103rd was reassigned to the 2nd Brigade, 3rd Division, 23rd Corps, Army of Ohio and ordered to march to East Tennessee to help bring Tennessee back into the Union.

In September of 1863, Col. Casement wrote to his wife about his frustration with the orders of marching forward and then retreating multiple times:

"I started on fight and had the enemy badly scared but was stopped so the enemy got away without a thrashing and are now full of spunk with all the force they had at that time with some additions while we are reduced to less than half of what we then had."^[6]

The Battle of Blue Springs, Tennessee on 10 Oct 1863 would be the regiment's first significant engagement with the enemy. Col. Casement had sent two companies of the 103rd out in front and he mounted his favorite horse "Old Rover" and set up the skirmish line. The confederates retreated during the night. After the Battle of Blue Springs, the regiment marched on toward Knoxville and became part of the Siege of Knoxville by the Army of Ohio. Col. Casement gained his first experience commanding a brigade when he was assigned command of the Provisional Brigade, made up of unorganized regiments around Knoxville. Captain John T. Philpot took over regimental command of the 103rd OVI. Col. Casement reassumed command of the regiment on 28 Jan 1864. He fought of illness in the month of March and then took a 30 day medical leave of absence on 30 April 1864. Col. Casement returned to the field on 21 May 1864 and took temporary command of the 2nd Brigade. On 4 Jun 1864, Col. Casement resumed command of the 103rd during General Sherman's Atlanta Campaign. Under his command the 103rd was the first regiment to cross the Chattachoochee Riveron 8 July 1864 concluding the first phase of the Atlanta Campaign. On 1 Aug 1864, Col. Casement was promoted to the permanent command of the 2nd Brigade, which he held until the end of the war. The 2nd Brigade became the first unit to secure a section of the Macon and Western Railroad on Sherman's entire front at about 3 pm on 31 Aug 1864. This lodgement forced the evacuation of Atlanta by Hood on 2 Sep 1864. General Jacob Cox recommended Colonel Casement's advancement to the rank of brigadier general stating, "long... meritorius and faithful services."^[7]

Casement's 2nd Brigade was at the center of the Union line at the Battle of Franklin on 30 Nov 1864. Confederate Lt. Gen. John Bell Hood's Army of Tennessee conducted numerous frontal assaults against fortified positions occupied by the Union forces under Maj. Gen. John M. Schofield. Hood's forces struck Casement's brigade at least 6 different times. The dead piled up three and four deep and blood flowed in the ditches in front of Casement's Brigade to the right of the Lewisburg pike. ^[8] General Cox credited Casement with "saving the day for the Union."^[9] Casement was appointed as a brigadier general on 25 Jan 1865. His brigade then moved on to the Carolinas campaign, where he led troops in the Battle of Wilmington. Casement resigned his commission on 30 Apr 1865, concluding his Civil War service.

Railroad Career

After the war, Casement resumed his career in the railroad industry. Casement and his brother Daniel were hired to direct the contstruction of the Transcontinental Railroad. John directed the construction crews, who referred to him as "General Jack". John and Dan used their own money to help fund the project. To make money on the side, John took grading work and opened general stores in towns along the route. Under the Casements, the work was completed in record time on May 10, 1869. In July 1870, John was hired to reconstruct the Union & Titusville Railroad to standard guage track. John also constructed track in Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, New York and Central America.

Obituary

DEATH OF GEN CASEMENT A shock will come to the members of the Army of the Ohio over the unexpected announcement of the death of Gen John S Casement at Painesville. Gen Casement and his fine regiment the 103d Ohio and his brigade played a most conspicuous part in making the history of which the members of the Army of the Ohio are deservedly proud. The last news that we had from Gen Casement was that in spite of his age he was in excellent health and full of life and vigor. It seems that he had never really recovered from the shock of his accident at San Jose, CA during the earthquake when the Hotel Vendome fell and caught him in the debris breaking several ribs. The severe weather brought on an attack of pneumonia and Dec 15 after an illness of three days he passed away.

Gen Casement was born at Geneva N Y in 1829 and married his wife in 1857. Three sons were born to them of whom one Dan Dillon Casement survives. Immediately after the news of the firing upon Fort Sumter Gen Casement enlisted in the 7th Ohio of which regiment he became Major. His first fight was at Cross Lanes Aug 26 1861 where he showed high courage and brilliant management. Later he helped raise the 103d Ohio and became its Lieutenant-Colonel. He soon succeeded to the Colonelcy and was much of the time in command with his brigade consisting of the 65th Ill, 65th and 124th Ind, 103d Ohio and 5th Tenn. He took a brilliant part in the great victory of Franklin. Of this Comrade T H Stevens Minneapolis MN says: “The accounts leave out altogether his Franklin campaign which as you know was one of the greatest in his career as ho took such a prominent part in the battle of Franklin and Is known throughout the South as the Brigadier-General who held our line cast of the Columbia Pike in front of the old cotton gin where so many of Hoods men lost their lives in trying to drive him out of the works Jn front of his brigade Gens Cleburne, John Adams and Quarles gave up their lives and fully 40 per cent of their commands were left stretched on the field In front of Casements Brigade. For this service as you know Casement received a Brigadier Generals commission and served to the end of the war as commander of the Second Brigade of the Third Division of the Twenty third Corps. I have always been proud that I was a humble member of his command. His men all loved him and would have died for him at any time if called upon to make the sacrifice.”

Upon leaving the army, Gen Casement began railroad contracting and achieved much fame by his great work. He laid the original rails of the Lake Shore and Big Four Railroads and built the first part of the Nickel Plate from Cleveland to Buffalo. He also built important pieces of road in South America and particularly in Costa Rica. His greatest work however was in laying the track of the Union Pacific to Cheyenne Wyoming. The work done then was one of the wonders of railroad building and Gen Casement made a remarkable record of seven miles a day which has not been exceeded since. Up to 1885 the General had laid more miles of track than any other contractor in America. He kept his home in Painesville however and was much interested in everything that related to that city and Northeastern Ohio.

The Painesville Telegraph-Republican says: “The death of Gen Jack Casement comes as a severe blow to the community. So recent did the fatal illness attack him that very few with the exception of relatives and intimate friends even knew of his indisposition There will be great mourning here where his kindly personality has brought sunshine into the community and elsewhere where he had hosts of friends and admirers.”^[10]
