28th North Carolina Infantry Regiment
The Weekly Standard [North Carolina], Dec. 2, 1863
A BRIEF HISTORY
OF THE 28TH REGIMENT OF NORTH CAROLINA TROOPS
FROM ENTRANCE INTO SERVICE TO OCTOBER 1ST, 1863
In writing this short
history, it is not intended to go into an
extended notice of the prominent part this fine regiment has borne in
the
most glorious and most bloody campaign of the war. The pen of the
future historian must do it that justice, which for
lack of time, space
and capacity, I am unable to perform.
The 28th Regiment North Carolina Troops, organized at
Camp Fisher, near
High Point, North Carolina, on the 21st September 1861, for twelve
months. LIEUTENANT COLONEL JAMES
H. LANE, on the 1st November was
elected Colonel; CAPTAIN THOMAS L. LOWE, Lieutenant Colonel, and
CAPTAIN R. E. REEVES,
Major.
The Regiment numbered about 900 men at the time of its organization. On
the 30th September the Regiment
left its first camp and under command
of LT. COL. LOWE was transported to Wilmington, North Carolina, at
which city
it arrived on the 1st October, went into camp near the city
on the Goldsboro Railroad, and was incorporated into BRIGADIER
GENERAL
JOSEPH R. ANDERSON'S Command. COL. LANE arrived on the 1st October and
took command of the Regiment. Here
the men built a handsome barracks,
and here they underwent the drill and discipline that was necessary to
prepare
them for a more active service. Here the regiment did post duty
and guarded the railroad bridges to the Virginia line.
At this camp,
seven companies of ten, reorganized for three years or the war in
February, 1862.
Newbern was
attacked, and the 28th Regiment was ordered to that point.
LT. COL. LOWE in command, embarked his men on the train, the
13th of
March, 1862, and reached Newbern the 14th, only in time to assist in
covering the rear of our discomfited
troops. He, with GEN. BRANCH'S
brigade, then fell back to Kinston, N. C. Whilst in this vicinity the
28th Regiment
became a part of GEN BRANCH'S Brigade.
On the 12th April, 1862, the regiment reorganized for the war, and
having
received many recruits it was about 1250 strong. COL. LANE and
LT. COL. LOWE were reelected to their former positions
by acclamation,
and CAPT. SAM. D. LOWE of Company C, was elected and Major. BRANCH'S
Brigade was ordered to Virginia.
The 28th Regiment took the cars at
Kinston on the 2nd May with 1199 men for duty, and arrived at Rapidan
Station,
Va. the 6th, where it did picket duty. The Regiment then
returned to Gordonsville, the 15th and through Madison, several
miles
about that place, on the Robinson as was the report to join Gen.
EWELL, then at New Market in the Valley. An
order recalled the brigade
to Hanover where the 28th fought the first battle on the 27th May,
1862, with heavy loss.
The regiment here was cut off from the brigade
and was engaged with Gens. MARTINDALE'S and BUTTERFIELD'S brigades for
over four hours inflicting greater loss than it did receive, executing
one of the most difficult retreats of the war.
After a short respite,
it opened the battles in front of Richmond, it being the first
brigade to cross the Chickahominy
on the 26th June, on which day it
fought at Mechanicsville, on the 28th, at Cold Harbor on the 30th, at
Frazier's
Farm and at Malvern Hill on the 1st July, 1862.
After these exhausting battles, the troops were allowed a short time
of
rest; the 28th, with the other regiments of the brigade going into
camp below Richmond, till the 29th July, when
it took up the line of
march, which ended in the Cedar Run Battle -- the regiment bearing a
conspicuous part in the
action, 9th August. On the 20th August the
brigade, now in command of the immortal JACKSON, whom it followed the
remainder
of the hero's life, began the famous march to POPE'S rear,
encountering heavy shelling at Warrenton Springs the 24th August
and
meeting the enemy at Manassas Junction, on the 27th August had a short
fight at that place; on the 28th, 29th
and 30th at Manassas Plains, and
at Ox Hill on the 1st September -- the 28th Regiment fought in all
these battles,
led in each of them by COL. LANE, whose cool courage on
all occasions is proverbial with the brigade.
After the
battle of Ox Hill, the troops moved towards the Potomac. The
28th Regiment crossed at Edward's Ferry on the Potomac River
on the 5th
September, marched to Frederick, Md., the 6th, then turned across the
Blue Ridge, recrossed the Potomac
at Williamsport on the 11th September
and formed in the line investing Harper's Ferry on the 13th --
participated in
the capture of the place on the 15th September, crossed
into Maryland a second time at Shepardstown on the 17th, and took
an
active part in the battle of Sharpsburg the same day. MAJOR MONTGOMERY
was in command of the brigade after the
fall of GEN. BRANCH. As our
army fell back, the 28th Regiment crossed the Potomac on the 19th
September at Shepardstown,
forming a part of the rear guard of the
entire army of Northern Virginia, and was in the gallant charge on the
20th
which drove the enemy's troops which had followed our army to the
South bank, back into the Potomac Branch's brigade (at
and after the
battle of Sharpsburg, commanded by COL. LANE) was quiet in camp near
Bunker Hill, Va.; after the Maryland
campaign its numbers very much
reduced, the campaign, its numbers very much reduced, the 28th Regiment
numbering 150
men until the 15th October when the command was ordered
to move up to Heagersville and destroy the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad,
which was most effectually done, after which the brigade returned to
Bunker Hill the 22nd Oct. Various moves
were made near Charlestown and
Snicker's Gap and Camp Lee, near Winchester, and on the 22nd Nov. 1862
the brigade
commanded by GEN. LOVE (COL LANE had been promoted to
BRIGADIER GENERAL) commenced the long march to Fredericksburg, and
arrived in time to meet Burnside at that town. In the great battle of
the 13th Dec. 1862, the 28th regiment fought
nobly and suffered
severely. The army immediately went into winter quarters after this
victory, GEN. LANE'S Brigade
at Camp Gregg, 10 miles below
Fredericksburg on the Rappahannock.
The winter passed. The 29th of April, 1863, found
the brigade marching
to Chancellorsville to a victory which the 28th regiment contributed
largely to win, on the 3rd
May, losing more heavily than ever in any
battle before in killed and wounded. This done, it was marched back to
Camp
Gregg and there remained till the 5th June 1863. Then the regiment
left the old camp for a destination which proved to
be Gettysburg, Pa.
Crossing the Potomac for the 5th time at Shepardstown the 25th of June,
reached Gettysburg the
lst July and was precipitated upon the heights
which rendered the Yankee General's position impregnable, losing about
two-thirds of the entire regiment in killed and wounded. This fierce
and desperate, but unfortunate charge, was on
memorable (to North
Carolinians) 3rd July, 1863. In the retreat the regiment was engaged in
several skirmishes at
Hagerstown and Falling Waters, at which point it
was the last organized body of troops to cross the Potomac into
Virginia
on the 14th of July. Without any occurrence of striking
importance after the date of these above recorded, the regiment
found
itself encamped at "Liberty Mills" near Orange, Va. on the lst day of
October 1863, at which time this record
ceases to correspond with the
"Roll." The muster rolls of the regiment footed up at that date an
aggregate of about
800.
These notes, though supposed to be accurate, very imperfectly express
the sufferings of the regiment,
and the immense value of services it
has enduring in this stupendous war. Forced marches, short rations,
often no
rations for days together, marching over roads knee deep in
mud, wading rivers to the armpits, lying in line of battle
in snow,
rain and hail -- add to this the sudden death of best friends, brothers
fallen by your side in the strife
of deadly conflict -- all for the
boon of Liberty, and then a faint idea only is given of the hardships,
privations,
bereavements, and services suffered and endured by this
veteran regiment. Volunteer recruits have partially made up the
heavy
losses of the regiment -- a statement of which loss, in every battle,
will be appended to the accompanying "Roll."
About 50 conscripts have
been enrolled in the regiment.
Very respectfully submitted

Recommended Reading: The 28th
North Carolina Infantry: A Civil War History and Roster. Description: In
April 1861, public opinion in North
Carolina was divided between Union and secession supporters. It was only after President
Lincoln issued his call to arms to subdue the rebel state of South Carolina that North Carolina seceded, primarily in protest
of the order to fight her sister state. Beginning with a look at the prevailing atmosphere in North Carolina in the spring of 1861, this volume provides
an in-depth history of one Confederate infantry regiment, the 28th North Carolina, which was comprised primarily of units from the central
and southwestern parts of the state. Continued below...
It discusses
the various battles in which the 28th North Carolina was involved, including Hanover Court House,
Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Chapin's Farm andAppomattox. Special emphasis is placed on the thoughts and surviving
accounts provided by those soldiers who witnessed firsthand the atrocities of war. Appendices contain (among other items)
a chronology of the 28th North Carolina; a list of casualties among officers; a list of casualties in the 28th from 1862 through
1864; and the full text of letters from two members of the 28th, the Harding brothers. About
the Author: Retired research assistant from the Bowman Gray School
of Medicine in Winston-Salem, Frances H. Casstevens, is also the author of Clingman's Brigade in the Confederacy, 1862-1865, Out of the Mouth of Hell: Civil War Prisons and Escapes, Tales from the North And the South, and The Civil War and Yadkin County, North Carolina (1997,

and Diaries, 1861-1865. Vol. 1: The Piedmont, this work presents letters and diary entries (and a few other documents) that tell the experiences of soldiers and
civilians from the mountain counties of North
Carolinaduring the Civil War.

The Civil War
in North Carolina: Soldiers'
and Civilians' Letters and Diaries, 1861-1865 (Volume 2): The Mountains, is the soldier's story. It is an A-to-Z compilation
of what the "rank and file soldier" experienced during the American Civil War. TheWestern
North Carolina soldiers express their hearts to their
loved ones and friends, thus allowing the reader the most intimate and personal view of the war. From triumph to tragedy,
the "soldiers' letters" express what few authors or writers can achieve--realism. According to cartographic and demographic
studies,Southern Appalachia comprised
a unique indigenous people, and by isolating these rare letters it allows the reader the most detailed insight to their experiences.
The soldier experienced various traumatic stressors in the conflict: such as witnessing death or dismemberment, handling dead
bodies, traumatic loss of comrades, realizing imminent death, killing others and being helpless to prevent others' deaths. Plain, raw and to the point: The reader will witness the most detailed insight
to the so-called American Civil War. Intimate and personal: diseases, privation, wounds, loneliness, exhaustion, heartache,
and death are all explored. This book includes a lot of information about: Western North Carolina Civil War History (North Carolina
mountain troops), soldiers' photos
(some tintype photographs too), and rare pictures. For example, on page 143, there is a photo of Gov. Zeb Vance's
brother, Robert, at Fort Delaware Prisoner of War Camp; he had been captured by Pennsylvania cavalry in East Tennessee. You
may see a rare photo or letter of an ancestor. The maps, which reflect the region, have keys which place each
regiment to each respective western county (where the troops were raised). The soldiers - collectively
- also present a detailed North Carolina Civil War History. By reading the letters, you will easily form a timeline
that is filled with first-hand facts. To be very candid, it is not only filled with primary accounts of the war, but
it is one of the best books to read about the war...Creates an indispensable
historical timeline of the life, times, and events of the brave men from the Old North State.
Recommended Reading: Remembering North Carolina's Confederates (NC) (Images of America). Description: The American Civil War was scarcely
over when a group of ladies met in Raleigh and began to plan commemoration for the honored Confederate dead of North Carolina. In 1867, they held their first memorial service. Two
years later in Fayetteville,
the first monument to the state's fallen Confederate soldiers was erected. Over the next 14 decades, countless monuments were
commissioned in cemeteries and courthouse squares across the state. Continued below…
Following Reconstruction, the
veterans themselves began to gather in their local communities, and state and national reunions were held. For many of the
Confederate veterans, honor for their previous service continued long after their deaths: accounts of their sacrifice were
often chiseled on their grave markers. The numerous images within this book, photographs of veterans and reunions, monuments,
and tombstones are but a sampling of the many ways that the old Confederate soldiers are commemorated across the Old North State.

Carolina, Hill discusses North Carolina’s massive task of preparing and mobilizing for the conflict; the
many regiments and battalions recruited from the Old North State; as well as the state's numerous contributions during
the war. Continued below...

the reader begins with interesting and thought-provoking statistical data regarding the 125,000 "Old North State" soldiers that fought
during the course of the war and the 40,000 that perished. Hill advances with the Tar Heels to the first battle at Bethel, through numerous bloody campaigns and battles--including North Carolina’s contributions at the "High Watermark" at Gettysburg--and concludes with Lee's surrender at Appomattox.
