Book Description
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.

Book Description
North Carolina sent more than 125,000 men and boys to fight the Civil War. It is estimated that about 40,000 lost their lives on the battlefield or by disease. Most were sent home for burial in family plots or community churchyards but thousands could not be identified or could not be transported and were interred in unmarked graves across the country. Many never had an obituary published. Others had obituaries that included directions to the deceased's final resting place. This compilation of obituaries from North Carolina newspapers documents the date and cause of death for hundreds of soldiers, with many providing place of burial, surviving relatives, last words, accounts by comrades and details of military service.

Book Description
This is a collection of war letters written by teenagers George and Walter Battle during their service in Company F, 4th North Carolina Regiment, CSA. Underage, yet full of vitality and idealism, these boys were not just fighting for their country; they were fighting to protect their family's name. Two young brothers had gone off to war as mere boys. Their experiences quickly hardened and molded them into veterans of the greatest army ever to march on American soil.

Book Description
Excerpt from Roster of North Carolina Troops in the War Between the States, Vol. 1 North Carolina, having exhausted counsel and entreaty upon those who were leaders on both sides in the great contention between the States, was at length made aware that peace had become impossible, and nothing was left but the choice of sides in a controversy not of her seeking. Very calmly and more in sorrow than wrath the flat went forth that was to convert her peaceful fields into one great military camp. There had been never much exceeding an hun dred thousand votes polled at any State election, and the whole sum of the white population was but six hundred thousand souls. How many of those of their own accord left the endearments of home, at what they felt was the call of duty, this work seeks to disclose.
