The dead of the regiment are beyond the tribute of tears.""The Fourteenth Regiment of North Carolina Troops, organized originally as the Fourth Regiment of North Carolina Troops, was formed at Garysburg, N. C., early in June, 1861, and was composed of patriotic and eager men and youths, who tendered their services to the State to maintain the dignity and rights of the State in the conflict then imminent.""Of the one thousand four hundred officers and men of the regiment borne upon the muster-rolls from the outbreak of the war until Palm Sunday in 1865, when the pale flag of defeat drooped over the guns which had upheld the life of the 'New Nation, ' scarcely fifty escaped wounds during their service."

This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North Carolina 8th Infantry Regiment State Troops completed its organization at Camp Macon, near Warrenton, North Carolina, in September, 1861. A study of this regiment will show that they were placed in two key positions and essentially abandoned. The first was at Roanoke Island in 1862 and the second at Fort Harrison in 1864. In both instances the 8th fought gallantly and lost mightily against over-whelming odds. Had they been properly supported with reserve troops and proper munitions, the war may have turned out VERY differently. This lack of support is tied very closely with the fact that their Brig. Gen. Clingman did not get along well with Jefferson Davis and other politicians of the Confederate Government. Companies of the NC 8th Infantry Regiment Members of the NC 8th Infantry were from the counties of Pasquotank, Perquimans, Camden, Currituck, Edgecombe, New Hanover, Franklin, Granville, Cumberland, Chatham, Harnett, Warren, Rowan, Greene, and Alamance.
