Hi Diana/Maggie,
   Ran Caleb Ely and only three Calebs came up. None in the 107th.
Two served for Ohio and one for PA. Diana, does your friend know
anything else about her great grandfather? Was Caleb his first name?
Did he survive the war?Does she have a company designation that he 
was in? Could he possibly have been on The Sultana? The only regiment
that I know of for Portage County was the 115th OVI., formed from

three Calebs that came up in the search:
