Carroll. 3' Div." featuring the Acorn corps badge of the XIVth corps. William Carroll (alt. Carol) enlisted as a private on 21 October 1862 and was mustered into Co. K of the 11th Ohio the same day. He transferred to Co. I of the 11th Ohio Battalion Infantry on 21 June 1864 and while in their service was listed as a prisoner of war on 29 January 1864 at Sister's Ferry, GA. He was paroled on 1 March 1865 and mustered out with the regiment at Camp Chase, OH on 20 June 1865. His later transfer suggests this ladder badge to be war-date.
