Book Description
Excerpt from Gibson County in the Civil War; An Address by Col. Gil: R. Stormont, at the Dedication of the Gibson County Soldiers Monument at Princeton, Indiana, on Nov, 12, 1913 History of Other Monuments in Gibson County The record of Gibson County in the Civil war was the subject of an address which I had the honor to deliver at the dedication of the Gibson county soldiers' monument in Princeton. November 12, 1912. This was published in the local papers at the time and met with such general interest and approval, because of the historical matter presented, that the suggestion came from various persons that the address should be published in a convenient form for preservation. In compliance with these suggestions, and as an acknowledgement of the compliments of friends as to the merits of the address, this publication is made. And this is offered for whatever apology or explanation may seem necessary for this booklet. As an additional matter of interest the history of the 58th Indiana regimental monument is included in these pages. This monument stands in the court house square, in Princeton, and is conceded to be one of the most unique relics of the civil war. The history of the monument erected at Oakland City, by the surviving members of Company F, 42d Indiana, also finds appropriate place in these pages. With the belief that this record of the loyal and patriotic spirit manifested by the people of Gibson county in the war of the rebellion is one that should be regarded with pardonable pride by every citizen, this little booklet is respectfully submitted.

Kalamazoo County and the Civil War
Author: Gary L. Gibson
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 1467145858
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
More than 3,000 Kalamazoo County men served in the Union forces during the Civil War. They fought in the most horrific battles from Blackburn's Ford to Appomattox, and 396 did not return home. The war tested the area not just on the battlefield but in its collective back yard and, at times, its front yard. A peace rally held by local Democrats was interrupted by Lincoln supporters who viewed the Democrats as traitors. Residents reacted jubilantly to the capture of Richmond, the Confederate capital, and mourned the assassination of Lincoln, who had visited the village of Kalamazoo before the war. As veterans, the former combatants left behind indelible reminders of their sacrifice. Local historian Gary L. Gibson uncovers long-lost stories, many never before told, of Kalamazoo County during and after America's bloodiest conflict.

Civil War Generals of Indiana
Author: Carl E. Kramer
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 1467151955
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
Meet the Hoosier Generals of America's Conflict When the Civil War erupted, the Union and the Confederacy faced the challenge of organizing huge armies of volunteers with little or no military experience. Crucial to this task was finding generals, and Indiana answered this call with approximately 120 of them. Though a competent division and corps commander, Ambrose E. Burnside's leadership of the Army of the Potomac at Fredericksburg proved disastrous. Jefferson Columbus was a relentless commander but murdering his superior in a Louisville hotel halted his probable rise to major general. As commander of the Louisville Legion, Lovell H. Rousseau was the only Civil War general commissioned by a city. Compiling years of research, historian Carl E. Kramer provides biographical sketches of every identifiable Indiana general who attained full-rank, brevet, and state-service status in the tragic struggle.
