Thus far, research has narrowed the identification of the four remains to 21 or 22 individuals who “likely died during the period when the (Union-operated) hospital” was caring for the Confederate dead and dying after the Battle of Williamsburg on May 5, 1862. The original list contained 59 names and their units.

My ancestor Noah Crews was with Lawton’s Brigade 26th GA at Sharpsburg/aka Antietam. Quite possibly in the Cornfield. May we always remember this day Sept. 17, 1862. The bloodiest single day in American history. 160th Anniversary
At 10 P. M. of the 16th, Lawton's Brigade advanced from its position west of the Dunkard Church and relieved Wofford's Brigade of Hood's Division in the fields south of the Cornfield and east of the Hagerstown Pike. Skirmishers were thrown forward into the south edge of the Cornfield. In this position the Brigade was attacked at about 5:30 A. M. on the 17th by Seymour's Brigade of Meade's Division on the right and, at 6 A. M., by three Brigades of Doubleday's Division on the left. After losing its commander and more than one-half its members, it was relieved by Wofford's Brigade of Hood's Division and withdrawn to the woods southwest of the Dunkard Church and was not again engaged.

Canada and the Southern states had great flags during the War. Think Canada helped the North? Think again! Canada used a UK ensign flag and the CSA had a First National Flag. SEE Below
The Scalawag Roy Eugene Barnes, the Disgraced Governor of Georgia, testified on behalf of Fani Willis as a character witness of sorts this week regarding her corruption. He was the 80th Governor of GA. He is responsible for removing the battle flag from the GA state flag. He’s still a scalawag!
