============================================================ From: SOFTDSIGN@aol.com Date: 12/19/04 13:21:59 To: vlrhodes@centurytel.net Subject: Augustus F., James P., John H. & W.J. Campbell - Iredell Co. Confederates Hello Ms. Rhodes, I found you at GenForum. I may have written to you before regarding a different surname from the list below. I am a civil war collector and trader and also a writer. I am currently working on a book regarding the "Saltillo Boys". This is a company of voluteers in the Civil War from Iredell County, North Carolina. They were called the Saltillo Boys because some of their number had participated victoriously in the Battle of Bueno Vista during the Mexican War. Their actual designation was Co. C of the 4th Regiment of North Carolina Volunteers. All of Co. C was from Iredell County, N.C. There were four Campbells listed as a part of Co. C. Augustus F. Campbell was 18 when he was mustered in on 6/7/1861 as a private He was wounded on 5/31/1862 at the battle of Seven Pines in Virginia, from which he apparently recovered but was listed as died on 3/14/1863 at Fredericksburg, VA. James P. Campbell was 19 on 6/7/1861 when he also enlisted into Co. C as a private. All I know about him is that he was wounded on 9/17/1862 at Sharpsburg, MD. A different source indicates him to be in Co. G of the 4th NC which may be & probably is incorrect. John H. Campbell was 20 on 6/7/1861 when he was mustered in and was listed as wounded on 12/13/1862 at Fredericksburg from which he also apparently recovered because he was listed as "returned" on 9/30/1863. W.J. Campbell was 29 when he enlisted and was mustered in on 2/26/1862. He was detailed as a teamster from 8/13/62 to 8/31/64. He was listed as a POW on 4/3/1865 at Petersburg and confined at Hart's Island, NY. I am interested in additional information regarding these Campbells for use in my book. I am interested in any and all info that can be obtained - especially personal information. I am also keenly interested in how or if these men were kin to one another. Please e-mail me directly at softdsign@aol.com The 4th Regiment completed its organization in May 1862 at Camp Hill, near Garysburg, NC. It was ordered to Virginia, where the unit served in General Featherston's, G.B. Anderson's, Ramseur's and Cox's Brigade. It was active at Williamsburg, Seven Pines, and the Seven Days' Battles, then shared in the campaigns of the army from South Mountain to Cold Harbor. Later the 4th was involved in Early's Shenandoah Valley operations and the Appomattox Campaign. It lost 77 killed, 241 wounded, and 6 missing of the 678 engaged at Seven Pines, sustained 58 casualties during the Maryland Campaign and had 45 killed and 110 wounded at Chancellorsville. At Gettysburg, the unit lost thirty-one percent of the 196 engaged and 18 were disabled at Bristoe. The records show 8 officers and 101 men present on April 9, 1865. Its field officers were Colonels George B. Anderson, Bryan Grimes, Edwin A. Osborne, and James H. Wood; Lieutenant Colonels David M. Carter and John A. Young; and Majors Edward S. Marsh and Absalom K. Simonton. A complete list of soldiers, for whom I am asking for information, associated with Co C 4th NC Infantry include: William M. Adams Claudius S. Alexander Thomas A.
