105. Civil War Nurses, "The Angels Of The Battlefield" Discusses conditions and contributions of the approximately two thousand woman who volunteered in military hospitals during the civil war. http://www.civilwarhome.com/civilwarnurses.htm

Civil War Nurses "The Angels of the Battlefield" William Ludwell Sheppard's watercolor In the Hospital, 1861 (above) pays tribute to those women of the South who labored ceaselessly to care for the war's wounded. "I have never worked so hard in all my life and I would rather do that than anything else in the world," declared one weary attendant. A devoted nurse later praised her female colleagues: "Would that I could do more than thank the dear friends who made my life for four years so happy and contented; who never made me feel by word or act, that my self-imposed occupation was otherwise than one which would ennoble any woman. If ever any aid was given through my own exertions, or any labor rendered effective by me for the good of the South-if any sick soldier ever benefitted by my happy face or pleasant smiles at his bedside, or death was ever soothed by gentle words of hope and tender care, such results were only owing to the cheering encouragement I received from them. They were gentlewomen in every sense of the word, and though they might not have remembered that "noblesse oblige," they felt and acted up to the motto in every act of their lives. My only wish was to live and die among them, growing each day better from contact with their gentle, kindly sympathies and heroic hearts. Approximately two thousand women, North and South, served as volunteer nurses in military

107. Southern Horizon - An Authentic Civil War Era Band This civil warera band plays period arrangements on antique instruments. http://www.southern-horizon.com/

Southern Horizon Authentic Period Music for Civil War Balls, Living Histories and Related Events Southern Horizon has been performing 19th century period music since 1987 for reenactments, museums, conventions, schools and private engagements. The group presents music popular of the period from 1816-1865. The music and arrangements are researched to present an accurate portrayal of the music heard in that period. The band performs in costume on instruments similar to those that would have been found in the homes of the citizenry of the 19th century. This ensemble has performed at many Virginia state parks and historical sites as well as at the centennial events for the Sons of Confederate Veterans and the United Daughters of the Confederacy. Other performances include programs for school groups and all performances focus on the representation of the lives and lifestyles of the 19 th century. The music is drawn on the tradition of the people who played it; Scottish, Irish and English influences combine with the turbulence, joy, and sadness of this period in American history. What began as a “pick-up” band has developed into a group of musicians with diverse backgrounds, all dedicated to developing an authentic sound of the music of mid-19

The Library of Congress home Overview Topics 6-pdr. Field Gun, between 1860 and 1865. Civil War Photographs In 1861, the United States faced its greatest crisis to that time. The northern and southern states had become less and less alikesocially, economically, politically. The North had become increasingly industrial and commercial while the South had remained largely agricultural. More important than these differences, however, was African-American slavery. The "peculiar institution," more than any other single thing, separated the South from the North. Northerners generally wanted to limit the spread of slavery; some wanted to abolish it altogether. Southerners generally wanted to maintain and even expand the institution. Thus, slavery became the focal point of a political crisis. Following the 1860 election to the presidency of Republican Abraham Lincoln, 11 southern states eventually seceded from the Federal Union in 1861. They sought to establish an independent Confederacy of states in which slavery would be protected. Northern Unionists, on the other hand, insisted that secession was not only unconstitutional but unthinkable as well. They were willing to use military force to keep the South in the Union. Even Southerners who owned no slaves opposed threatened Federal coercion. The result was a costly and bloody civil war. Almost as many Americans were killed in the Civil War as in all the nation's other wars combined.

Texas During The Civil War Louis J. Wortham, A HISTORY OF TEXAS: FROM WILDERNESS TO COMMONWEALTH, Volume 4, Chapter LX, Worthham-Molyneaux Company, Fort Worth, Texas 1924 DURING the period between the submission of the secession ordinance to the people of Texas for approval and the date on which the ordinance went into effect, a group of seceded states, in convention at Montgomery, Ala., organized the Confederate States of America. A constitution was drafted and on February 9 Jefferson Davis of Mississippi was elected president of the new federal republic thus brought into being. Texas was received as a state of the Confederacy immediately after the final adjournment of the secession convention and members of the first congress and two senators were elected from Texas. Louis T. Wigfall and William S. Oldham were the senators named and President Davis appointed John H. Reagan as a member of his cabinet, assigning him to the portfolio of postmaster general. Thus was the plan of "peaceful secession" carried out and thus did Texas take her place in the Confederacy. News of the firing on Fort Sumter was received at Austin on April 17, 1861, and immediately Governor Clark took steps to prepare for the war. He provided for the organization, equipment and instruction of volunteer companies in every county in the state. Lieut.Col. John R. Baylor took possession of the army posts west of San Antonio, occupying the Rio Grande into New Mexico. Col. William C. Young raised a cavalry regiment and captured Forts Arbuckle, Washita and Cobb, in the Indian territory beyond Red river, and compelled the Federals to retire into Kansas. A clash occurred between Texas forces and the Federals concentrated on the coast from the various Posts, before the state was completely free of United States troops, but finally the embarkation of the latter was accomplished.

118. Handguns Of The Civil War, By Kerry Barlow Explore the many different pistols, and revolvers or handguns as they were called at the time, used throughout the civil war. http://www.pride-net.com/1998/january/civilwar/

For those in need - we invite you to visit Serenity If you have a bit of time, please visit our affiliate site ArtSelect Revolutionary online art gallery 40-50% off Custom Framed Art Prints Handguns of the Civil War by Kerry Barlow Many different pistols, and revolvers or handguns as they were called at the time, were used throughout the civil war by both the North and the South. Sometimes the exact same model and version of a handgun would be used by both sides, or the handgun would be built to specifications set forth by the respective faction. Generally speaking the Confederate troops were always outnumbered by the North in both manpower and available weapons to use.This caused the confederate troops to use as many captured weapons as possible throughout the war.This crossing over of weapons from one side to the other, as well as the actual production of the same model handgun in various styles makes it difficult to specifically say one weapon was used by any one side. If there was any one handgun used the most by Union troops it would have to be the Colt models 1851 and 1860 army versions.For the Confederate troops it would again be either the Colt models or the Remington model 1858 revolver. A short description of terms may be in order before you actually go to view the specific handgun models. A

November 19, 2005 National Headquarters National Civil War Museum Harrisburg, Pennsylvania In 1866, Union Veterans of the Civil War organized into the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) and became a social and political force that would control the destiny of the nation for more than six decades. Membership in the veterans' organization was restricted to individuals who had served in the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, or Revenue Cutter Service during the Civil War, thereby limiting the life span of the GAR. The GAR existed until 1956. In 1881 the GAR formed the Sons of Veterans of the United States of America (SV) to carry on its traditions and memory long after the GAR had ceased to exist. Membership was open to any man who could prove ancestry to a member of the GAR or to a veteran eligible for membership in the GAR. In later years, men who did not have the ancestry to qualify for hereditary membership, but who demonstrated a genuine interest in the Civil War and could subscribe to the purpose and objectives of the SUVCW, were admitted as Associates. This practice continues today.
