History of Kershaw's
Brigade "I have in this appendix endeavored to give a
complete roll of all the members who belonged to Kershaw's Brigade. I have taken
it just as it stands in the office of the State Historian in Columbia. The work
of completing the rolls of the Confederate soldiers from this State was first
commenced by the late General H. L. Farley and finished by Colonel John
P.Thomas, to whose courtesy I am indebted for the use of his office and archives
while completing these rolls. There may be some inaccuracies in the spelling of
names or in the names themselves, but this could not be avoided after the lapse
of so many years. Then, again, the copy sent to the 'State Historian was often
illegible, causing the same names to appear different and different names to
look the same. But I have followed the records in the office in Columbia, and am
not responsible for any mistakes, omissions, or inaccuracies.
by G. Augustus Dickert
In the list
of officers there will appear some seeming irregularities and inaccuracies, but
this is accounted for by the fact that the duplicate rolls were those taken from
the companies muster rolls when first enlisted in the Confederate service, and
little or no record kept of promotions. Thus we will see Captains and
Lieutenants in these rolls marked as non-commissioned officers. This was
occasioned by those officers being promoted during the continuance of the war,
and no record kept of such promotions."
