The Civil War In Arkansas - People | Aaron Hurvey The civil war in Arkansas What happened in various counties, stories aboutancestors of current Arkansans, and information on groups in Arkansas recording, http://www.civilwarbuff.org/hurvey.html
Extractions: Ronnie Nichols (second from right) at drill during the filming of the motion picture "Glory." Aaron Hurvey is Ronnie's Great Uncle. Aaron Hurvey, an escaped slave, is one of 5,526 recorded black soldiers who joined the Union Army in Arkansas during the Civil War. Hurvey enlisted in the 4th Arkansas Regiment of African Descent (later changed to the 57th United States Colored Infantry) at Helena, Arkansas, on April 6, 1864. The following passages are from a statement that Hurvey filed on May 3rd, 1909, at the age of seventy for a military pension. "I have no record of my age and know of none other public, baptism, family or Bible record. I was a slave and my parents before me slaves without the knowledge to keep or appreciate records or to read or write. What little I can do I learned since Slavery I was sold with the whole plantation and everything in 1858 and I was knocked down for $1,500.00 and since then I was with the speculators [slave traders] and know nothing until I joined the U. S. Army." During the Civil War, Hurvey escaped from his owner in Mississippi and crossed the Mississippi River to Helena, Arkansas. In 1911, when he was applying for an increase in his service pension, Hurvey succeeded in getting his old friend, Burrill Eastman, to give the following testimony on his behalf:

Extractions: The Civil War was caused by a myriad of conflicting pressures, principles, and prejudices, fueled by sectional differences and pride, and set into motion by a most unlikely set of political events. At the root of all of the problems was the institution of slavery, which had been introduced into North America in early colonial times. The American Revolution had been fought to validate the idea that all men were created equal, yet slavery was legal in all of the thirteen colonies throughout the revolutionary period. Although it was largely gone from the northern states by 1787, it was still enshrined in the new Constitution of the United States, not only at the behest of the Southern ones, but also with the approval of many of the Northern delegates who saw that there was still much money to be made in the slave trade by the Yankee shipping industry. Eventually its existence came to color every aspect of American life. At the Constitutional Convention there were arguments over slavery. Representatives of the Northern states claimed that if the Southern slaves were mere property, then they should not be counted toward voting representation in Congress. Southerners, placed in the difficult position of trying to argue, at least in this case, that the slaves were human beings, eventually came to accept the three-fifths compromise, by which five slaves counted as three free men toward that representation. By the end of the convention the institution of slavery itself, though never specifically mentioned, was well protected within the body of the Constitution.
Extractions: Literally thousands of books have been written on the single subject, or some detail of the subject of the American Civil War. I do not propose to write another one here. I cannot expect to entirely do justice to an event in American history which defined us as a people and redefined the country as a Nation, rather than as a mere experiment in Federal Republicanism. The war profoundly changed the people who endured it. Those changes remain very much with us today. Its conclusion established the supremacy of the authority of the Federal government over that of the individual states, ended the institution of slavery, and stimulated the industrial growth and prosperity of the entire country. The cast of characters, the violent clash of opposing beliefs, and the huge stakes involved in the outcome make the Civil War a drama which is hard to ignore for anyone interested in our history. What have I to add the din of 50,000 authors that could be new or worthwhile?
