Westerners in Gray by Phillip Thomas Tucker Pdf

Few infantry regiments in the Civil War compiled a more distinguished record than the Fifth Missouri. The unique blending of fiery Irish Confederates from St. Louis with rural pro-Southern Missourians forged an unshakable esprit de corps, making the unit the crack infantry regiment in the western sector. Most of Colonel James C. McCown's troops were young men in their 20s, and their good health and physical conditioning allowed them to carry out their "shock" missions throughout the region. From the perspective of the common soldiers and the unit's leaders the activities and battles of the Fifth Missouri are recounted here.

Guerrilla Warfare in Civil War Missouri, Volume III, January-August 1864 by Bruce Nichols Pdf

This book is a thorough study of all known guerrilla operations in Civil War Missouri from January through August 1864. It explores the various tactics each side used to try to gain advantage, with regional differences affected by the differing personalities of commanders. The author utilizes both well-known and obscure sources (military and government records, private accounts, county and other local histories, period and later newspapers, and secondary sources published after the war) to identify which Southern partisan leaders and groups operated in which areas of Missouri, and describe how they operated and how their kinds of warfare evolved. This work presents the actions of Southern guerrilla forces and Confederate behind-Union-lines recruiters chronologically by region to reveal the relationship of seemingly isolated events to other events. The book also studies the counteractions of an array of different types of Union troops to show how differences in training, leadership and experience affected actions in the field.

The Flags of Civil War Missouri by Glenn Dedmondt Pdf

This comprehensive historical reference offers an in-depth look at the Confederate flags of Missouri during the Civil War. Throughout the 1860s, scores of flags representing the Confederate State of Missouri and its soldiers were unfurled in the fight against the Union armies. Symbolizing the way of life those men sought to protect, these flags provide a unique index to the history of the Civil War in this western state. This comprehensive study of Missouri’s Civil War–era flags presents more than fifty authentic flags, along with information on their origins and the units they represented. The emblems, materials, construction, and dimensions of each flag are also included. From the banner borne by the First Regiment Missouri Volunteer Militia, which serves as a significant reminder of the Camp Jackson massacre, to the famed flag Brig. Gen. Joseph O. Shelby never surrendered, each Missouri ensign represents a moment in history.

Kentuckians in Missouri by Stuart Seely Sprague Pdf

"From the multitude of biographical and genealogical sketches found in [61 Missouri county histories and biographical compilations] I have compiled this record of over 4,000 persons who were born in Kentucky but who late migrated to Missouri, some by way of Ohio, Indiana, or Illinois. ... Arranged in tabular format under county of origin the entries include some or all of the following information: the name of the Kentucky migrant, his birthdate, the names of his parents, and their dates and places of birth (if known), the name of the Missouri county in which the migrant first settled -- if different from his "current" county of residence -- and the earliest know date of his residence in Missouri. ..."--Forward.

Guerrilla Warfare in Civil War Missouri, Volume I, 1862 by Bruce Nichols Pdf

This book is a thorough study of all known guerrilla operations in Civil War Missouri in 1862, the year such warfare became the primary type of military action there and the year that the state saw almost constant fighting. An enormous variety of sources--military and government records, private accounts, county and other local histories, period and later newspapers, and secondary sources published after the war--are used to identify which Southern partisan leaders and groups operated in which areas of Missouri, and to describe how they operated and how their kinds of warfare evolved. The actions of Southern guerrilla forces and Confederate behind-enemy-lines recruiters are presented chronologically by region so that readers may see the relationship of seemingly isolated events to other events over a period of time in a given area. The counter-actions of an array of different types of Union troops are also covered to show how differences in training, leadership, and experiences affected behaviors and actions in the field.

A Burned Land by Robert R. Laven Pdf

Often neglected by historians, actions in Missouri and Kansas had an important influence on the course of the Civil War, with profound effects for the communities and people in the region. Outside of Virginia and Tennessee, Missouri was perhaps the most hotly contested territory during the war. The fighting in Missouri culminated with an expedition that re-wrote the books on tactics and the use of mounted infantry. This book focuses on the experiences of the soldiers, officers and civilians on both sides. The author brings to life the events in the region that contributed to the internecine strife in the Western Theater.

The Washingtons. Volume 2 by Justin Glenn Pdf

This is the second volume of a comprehensive history that traces the “Presidential line” of the Washingtons. Volume one began with the immigrant John Washington who settled in Westmoreland Co., Va., in 1657, married Anne Pope, and was the great-grandfather of President George Washington. It continued the record of their descendants for a total of seven generations. Volume two is a collection of notable descendants of the next eight generations of John and Anne Washington’s descendants, including such luminaries as General George S. Patton, the author Shelby Foote, and the actor Lee Marvin. Future volumes will trace generations eight through fifteen, making a total of over 63,000 descendants. Although structured in a genealogical format for the sake of clarity, this is no bare bones genealogy but a true family history with over 1,200 detailed biographical narratives. These in turn strive to convey the greatness of the family that produced not only The Father of His Country but many others, great and humble, who struggled to build that country. The Washingtons includes the time-honored John Wright line which in recent years has been challenged largely on the basis of DNA evidence. Volumes one and two form a set, with a cumulative bibliography appearing at the end of volume two.
