This book was released on 2019-10-25 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North Carolina sent over 125,000 men and boys to service in the Civil War. It is estimated that about 40,000 lost their lives through disease, accidents, or on the battlefield during the four war years. Previous to the war, death was a more private affair, with family and friends there to comfort the dying and bid him or her farewell. Burials took place in the community in a churchyard or in a selected place where generations of a family lay. But with the war, what would happen to the bodies of their loved ones-fathers, husbands, sons, brothers, and other relatives so far away from home? This book, a compilation of obituaries written in NC newspapers, seeks to answer that question-what happened to a loved one? There are approximately 1200 names in this collection.

Download or read book Civil War Courts Martial of North Carolina Troops written by Aldo S. Perry and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2012-08-09 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Civil War, Confederate military courts sentenced to death more soldiers from North Carolina than from any other state. This study offers the first exploration of the service records of 450 of these wayward Confederates, most often deserters. Arranged by army, corps, division and brigade, it chronicles their military trials and frequent executions and offers explanations of how the lucky and the clever were able to avoid their fate. Focus on court activity by company allows for comparisons that emphasize the wide disparity in discipline within a regiment and brigade. By stressing the effectiveness of these deadly decisions as deterrents to others, this work maintains that an earlier and wider reliance on execution would have strengthened the Confederacy sufficiently to force a negotiated end to the war, thus saving many Confederate and Federal lives.

Download or read book The 4th North Carolina Cavalry in the Civil War written by Neil Hunter Raiford and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-09-03 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In April 1862, the Civil War was entering its second year and North Carolina was rallying to supply more troops for the Confederacy. The Partisan Ranger Act, passed by the Confederate Congress on April 21, prompted local leaders to recruit companies of irregular soldiers for service in the Confederate Army. Seven such companies were banded together into a regiment to form the 4th North Carolina Cavalry: a true cross-section of North Carolina, it contained soldiers from the largest urban areas and smallest rural areas from fifteen counties. This history of the 4th North Carolina Cavalry is based largely on primary source material--the official records, letters, diaries and recollections of the soldiers. The 4th North Carolina saw action in North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania, and was a part of General Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. The roster comprises a large part of the book and provides biographical, genealogical and military information about each soldier.

Long overshadowed by Appomattox, this event was equally important in ending the war, and is much more representative of how most Americans in 1865 experienced the conflict's end. The book includes a timeline, organizational charts, an order of battle, maps, and illustrations. It also uses many unpublished accounts and provides information on Confederate campsites that have been lost to development and neglect.
