David D Collins - Unknown
|
Born in 1838. He was a farmer and at age 23 enlisted on 10-16-1861. Present until he deserted on 4-11-1864. Returned to duty on 9-18-1864. Surrendered at Appomattox Court House, VA, on 4-9-1865. This is all the information I have. I know that he fathered two children, my great grandfather and his brother who were illegitimate and so his surname was not passed down to me. Instead, their mother gave her children her own maiden name which was later mine.

John C Cozort - Private
|
John C. Cozort (aka Cozart) was the older (b. 1836) brother of Thomas Jefferson Cozort of the 26th NC Infantry who was killed at The Angle during Pickett's Charge at Gettysburg 7/3/1863. Both were born in Surrey County and lived in Yadkin County. One source states that John enlisted 6/1/1862. Since he was killed at Beaver Dam Creek (Seven Days Battles) on June 26, 1862, he was a soldier for less than a month. [It is possible that John enlisted a year or so earlier, when the unit was formed.] The fight at Beaver Dam Creek (VA) is also known as Mechanicsville, and John apparently lost his life on the first day of the Seven Days conflicts. Interestingly -- or tragically -- about a year after John was killed, his 38th was involved in the infamous 'Pickett's Charge' at Gettysburg. The 38th is said to have suffered 90% casualties on that day. Brother Thomas' life was lost during that same battle, and his 26th NC Infantry lost more than 90% on the day. Thomas was killed some 10 to 20 feet short of The Angle, the spot where the Confederates' 'High Water Mark' of the Gettysburg battles was reached -- where they breached Union lines during Pickett's madness. Some of John's comrades also reached The Angle and the rock walls of the High Water Mark.

James Ervin Stokes - Private
|
James was born and raised in Surry Co. (Now Yadkin Co.) N.C. There has been great confusion on the fact that there were two James Stokes's in the 38th, Listed as Sr. and Jr. The eldest enlisted at age 36 and is my 2nd Greatgrandfather . The other James enlisted at age 19 and is His Nephew , born to his eldest brother John. His full name being James Nathen Stokes. James Ervin also had a brother named Henry, that joined the 33rd . James Ervin was KIA at Beaver Dam Creek Jun 26 1862, and Henry was KIA Jun. 27 1862 at Gaines Mill . I have been searching for any indication of where the KIA's are buried with no luck , seems there is no record of the location of the dead from the 38th or 33rd during the 7 days Battles Can anyone help?
