It affiliated with the Ohio National Guard in 1877, formed part of the 1st Ohio Volunteer Cavalry in 1898, was absorbed into the 135th Field Artillery in 1918, and reorganized in 1920 as Troop A of the 107th Cavalry Regiment of the Ohio National Guard. It became part of the 107th Armored Cavalry Regiment in 1947. The Cleveland Gatling Gun Battery was also founded in 1877 to quell labor violence. It disbanded by 1905. The collection consists of photographs of Troop A, of Cleveland, Ohio, and the 135th Field Artillery. One album contains photographs of Troop A training in August 1912 at Novelty, Ohio. Another album depicts members of Troop A patrolling the Mexican border during 1916 and of the 135th Field Artillery during World War I. Loose photographs contain group portraits and other images which chronicle the 135th Field Artillery during World War I. There are also photographs of Field Marshal Foch's visit to Cleveland in November 1921 and a Troop A 85th anniversary event in 1962.
