Emmitsburg's Civil War Soldiers

(Company C, Cole’s Cavalry)

John Miller

My personal thanks goes out to everyone who submitted the information within these pages. I'd like to especially thank my wife who painstakingly helped transcribed most of the material for me. As you can tell, we have a long way to go to fill in the gaps. Our main objective is to raise awareness and educate the public about the historical significance these men took part in shaping America as we know it today. We want to create a 'hyperlinked' history of Cole's Cavalry.

Unlike a traditional history book, which forges a set path through time, hyper-linking allows readers to follow any path through history they chose providing our viewers a single internet source to learn the life history of each of the soldiers of Cole's Calvary, from who they were and what they did before the war, their actions during the war, and their lives after the war. 

If you would like to contribute any material no matter the size of the story, (prewar, war, or postwar) for our archives - such as memoirs, photographs, and letters on the members of Cole's Cavalry, please contact us at John@emmitsburg.net. As always, if you have any information that could help us expand or improve our archives on the knowledge of the solders of Cole's Calvary, please send it to us.

Sincerely,

John A. Miller; Civil War Historian, Emmitsburg Historical Society
