Extractions: There were roughly 185,000 Irish-American immigrants who fought on both sides of the American Civil War. Of that number all but about 40,000 were in the Union forces. (The large total does also not include descendants of earlier immigrants who may have still held some affinity to their Irish heritage.) The bulk of the immigrants served in largely Irish units, though the organizational placement of those Irish units in the Union and Confederate armies was considerably different. Why separate Irish units? It helps to understand how the armies were formed but it is also impossible to ignore that there was a certain amount of distrust and discrimination against the Irish in the United States at the time the war broke out.

Extractions: Journey to Equality This edition of Bill of Rights in Action focuses on issues of equality. The first article recounts the struggle of black men to serve during the Civil War. The second article focuses on affirmative action and a recent Supreme Court decision on this issue. The third article examines the culture of the Mandinko, one of the West African peoples ensnared in the slave trade. U.S. History : Black Troops in Union Blue U.S. Government : The Adarand Case World History : The Mandinko of the Gambia Black Troops in Union Blue Nearly 180,000 free black men and escaped slaves volunteered for service in the Union Army during the Civil War. But at first they were denied the right to fight by a prejudiced public and a reluctant government. Even after they eventually entered the Union ranks, black soldiers continued to struggle for equal treatment. Placed in racially segregated infantry, artillery, and cavalry regiments, these troops were almost always led by white officers. Black soldiers, including more than a dozen Congressional Medal of Honor winners , fought in 449 Civil War battles. More than one-third of them died during the war. Through their courage and sacrifice, these black men helped press the African-American fight for equality.

Extractions: War came to Virginia shortly after its leaders voted to secede from the United States on 17 April 1861. For the next four years the Old Dominion was the major battleground of the Civil War. Its geographical location, being so near Washington, D.C., and the fact that Virginia's capital city of Richmond also served as the southern capital, guaranteed that Union armies would try to end the war quickly by capturing the seat of the Confederate government. By the end of the war in April 1865 Virginia had hosted over four hundred military engagements, including twenty-six major battles. The presence of so many soldiers marching and fighting across the state also devastated the economy of the Old Dominion. Farms and towns suffered under the weight of occupying armies. The war also ended slavery forever. Thus Virginia, home to the largest population of slaves in the country, experienced a difficult transition. Anyone conducting research on the Civil War in Virginia is faced with a daunting task. Thousands of books have been written about America's bloodiest war, and many of those focus entirely or at least in part on the war in Virginia. Almost every aspect of the state's wartime experience has been written about. Studies on the economic, military, social, and political effects of the Civil War fill the shelves of bookstores and libraries across the country. Biographies of major military and political leaders also account for a large portion of the Civil War library.

JOSIAH PENDER AND four of North Carolina s regular military units to proceed This was soon followedby the unit s induction into of America, after North Carolina left the union. http://www.clis.com/friends/pender.htm
Extractions: JOSIAH PENDER AND THE CAPTURE OF FORT MACON (published in the Spring '97 Ramparts) by: Bennett R. Moss Fort Macon was built to protect Beaufort and its harbor from hostile invaders. Whoever possessed Fort Macon would have effective control of an important area of eastern North Carolina. When word of the Confederate siege of Charleston's Fort Sumter was received in Beaufort, a local unit of secessionist militia decided to take action against Fort Macon. The militia unit, known locally as the "Beaufort Harbor Guards" consisted of 17 men under the command of Josiah S. Pender. On April 14, 1861, the Beaufort Harbor Guards and some of their friends, descended upon the surprised Union caretaker, Sergeant William Alexander, and took possession of Fort Macon for the Confederacy. They lowered the Stars and Stripes and replaced it with an improvised Confederate flag. Sgt. Alexander was not the only one surprised by this venture. The governor of North Carolina was also surprised when he heard of it. The War had barely begun. Not only did the capture of Fort Macon occur just one day after Fort Sumter fell, but North Carolina was still a part of the Union, and remained so for another 35 days! To say the least, the military career of the militia commander, Josiah Pender, was strange. Pender was born into a wealthy North Carolina family in March, 1819. At the age of 16, he obtained an appointment to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. He entered West Point on July 1, 1835. Seven months later he resigned from the Academy because he found military discipline to be intolerable. He then turned to the study of art.

Extractions: Beginner's Guide to Family History Research - Chapter 7 As you research your ancestors back through time, consider their participation in wars. Remember, you are searching for circumstances and events that created records with genealogical value. Military service often creates two kinds of records: service and benefits from having served. The National Archives in Washington, DC, is the largest repository of military records in the United States. An entire microfilm catalog is devoted to military records. Copies of those microfilm publications have been distributed throughout the United States and are available at major libraries with genealogical collections. Read a basic United States history text to learn more about the wars in which our country has been involved. Our government began with a war, the American Revolution, 1776-1783. We fought Great Britain again in 1812 and lost many records in a fire in Washington DC, the nation's new capital. In the early 19th century, we fought a series of wars with various Indian tribes. In 1846-1848, we fought a war with Mexico over Texas' entry into the union. The bloodiest of all our wars was the War Between the States or Civil War, fought between 1861 and 1865. We participated in the Spanish-American War in 1898, a war for independence for Cuba and the Philippines. World War I, once called the Great War, involved the United States in 1917 and 1918. 'Modern' wars, World War II, Korea, and Vietnam, are within living memory of many Americans.
Military Records Research Service union and confederate Records. Compiled military Service Records (CMSR). Each volunteersoldier has one Compiled military Service Record (CMSR) for each unit ( http://history-sites.com/research/basic.html
Extractions: +Comments Union and Confederate Records Compiled Military Service Records (CMSR) Generally, Union CMSRs contain more "cards" and provide more information than Confederate CMSRs due to the loss and destruction of Confederate records and the institutions which stored them. In addition, many Confederate CMSRs are incomplete beyond 1863 and in some cases would lead the researcher to believe that the soldier went "AWOL" (absent without leave) or deserted, when in fact, their absence was temporary and the later documents showing additional "distinguished" service do not exist. Our researchers will take this into account when providing your records and attempt to find war ending records of their continued service, such as, "Surrender Rolls" for Appomattox, VA, Greensboro, NC, Gainesville, AL, Shreveport, LA and other lesser-known locations where Confederate veterans were surrendered and paroled at wars end. Pension Records Most Union army soldiers or their widows or minor children later applied for a pension. On a percentage basis, fewer Confederate Soldiers and their widows received pensions, as Confederate pensions were generally made available at a much later date than the Union pensions, therefore, many of the Confederate Veterans and their spouses had passed away by the time the pensions made available to them. In some cases, a dependent father or mother applied for a pension. If you are fortunate enough to have a Confederate Ancestor with a pension, you may find a wealth of information in them similar to the Union pensions.
