Soldiers from Swedish that was in the American civil war 1861-1865
Pages for Scandinavians who fought for the Confederate States during the War Between the States. The subject has been a forgotten part of the history of the War.
Little have been known about many of the units they fought and who they were. These pages will try to enlighten some of the Scandinavians "in rebel ranks" that did fight for their new homeland. Since the war ended, almost everything related in the Scandinavian community has envolved around their participation on the Union side, and that`s natural, since 97% of the soldiers did fight on this side of the conflict.
This page is intended to inform people about Canadian (British North American) men who served and died during the American Civil War (1861-65). Canadians who fought in the war did so for various reasons; some went voluntarily, while others were pressed into service by shady recruiting tactics (crimping). Many more Canadians found themselves in a position where they were fighting for their "adopted country," having left Canada to reside in the States at some time in their lives, often when they were young. All in all, it is believed that between 40,000 to 60,000 Canadians served during the Civil War, the majority likely coming from the then independent Maritime provinces and Canada East (now Quebec). That this great of a number fought in the war is somewhat debatable, although I have read that someone has already managed to compile a fairly extensive list of names. Unfortunately, it looks as though this information will not be made available in the near future. For this reason, my intention is to make as much information available so as to provide all interested people with a wealth of knowledge on this oft neglected aspect of Canadian history.
I have a compiled the soldiers name in a alphabetical orderlist. Currently, the number of names stands at 3303
This list is a revision, expansion, and (I hope) an improvement upon the previous lists that I have compiled. My intention is to list every Canadian who served in the Civil War for whom there is some sort of documentation. Unfortunately, much of the relevant materials is not readily available, and therefore this list will never be an accurate reflection of the number of Canadians who served in the war. Nevertheless, I hope that the list will bring more attention to the role that these men played and, hopefully, assist some genealogically-minded people in tracking down a long lost ancestor. Please keep in mind that the list is currently a "work in progress". I have pieced much of it together from other lists that I have previously compiled, using different formats. I hope to have this lack of uniformity rectified as soon as possible.

This list is a revision, expansion, and (I hope) an improvement upon the previous lists that I have compiled. My intention is to list every Canadian who served in the Civil War for whom there is some sort of documentation. Unfortunately, much of the relevant materials is not readily available, and therefore this list will never be an accurate reflection of the number of Canadians who served in the war. Nevertheless, I hope that the list will bring more attention to the role that these men played and, hopefully, assist some genealogically-minded people in tracking down a long lost ancestor. Please keep in mind that the list is currently a "work in progress". I have pieced much of it together from other lists that I have previously compiled, using different formats. I hope to have this lack of uniformity rectified as soon as possible.

This list is a revision, expansion, and (I hope) an improvement upon the previous lists that I have compiled. My intention is to list every Canadian who served in the Civil War for whom there is some sort of documentation. Unfortunately, much of the relevant materials is not readily available, and therefore this list will never be an accurate reflection of the number of Canadians who served in the war. Nevertheless, I hope that the list will bring more attention to the role that these men played and, hopefully, assist some genealogically-minded people in tracking down a long lost ancestor. Please keep in mind that the list is currently a "work in progress". I have pieced much of it together from other lists that I have previously compiled, using different formats. I hope to have this lack of uniformity rectified as soon as possible.

This list is a revision, expansion, and (I hope) an improvement upon the previous lists that I have compiled. My intention is to list every Canadian who served in the Civil War for whom there is some sort of documentation. Unfortunately, much of the relevant materials is not readily available, and therefore this list will never be an accurate reflection of the number of Canadians who served in the war. Nevertheless, I hope that the list will bring more attention to the role that these men played and, hopefully, assist some genealogically-minded people in tracking down a long lost ancestor. Please keep in mind that the list is currently a "work in progress". I have pieced much of it together from other lists that I have previously compiled, using different formats. I hope to have this lack of uniformity rectified as soon as possible.

This list is a revision, expansion, and (I hope) an improvement upon the previous lists that I have compiled. My intention is to list every Canadian who served in the Civil War for whom there is some sort of documentation. Unfortunately, much of the relevant materials is not readily available, and therefore this list will never be an accurate reflection of the number of Canadians who served in the war. Nevertheless, I hope that the list will bring more attention to the role that these men played and, hopefully, assist some genealogically-minded people in tracking down a long lost ancestor. Please keep in mind that the list is currently a "work in progress". I have pieced much of it together from other lists that I have previously compiled, using different formats. I hope to have this lack of uniformity rectified as soon as possible.

This list is a revision, expansion, and (I hope) an improvement upon the previous lists that I have compiled. My intention is to list every Canadian who served in the Civil War for whom there is some sort of documentation. Unfortunately, much of the relevant materials is not readily available, and therefore this list will never be an accurate reflection of the number of Canadians who served in the war. Nevertheless, I hope that the list will bring more attention to the role that these men played and, hopefully, assist some genealogically-minded people in tracking down a long lost ancestor. Please keep in mind that the list is currently a "work in progress". I have pieced much of it together from other lists that I have previously compiled, using different formats. I hope to have this lack of uniformity rectified as soon as possible.

Law, James nativity: not stated; units(s): First Infantry, Louisiana Guard Battery--James Law resided in Hamilton, Canada prior to leaving for the United States in the summer of 1860. He eventually settled in New Orleans, and upon the breaking out of war, joined the Louisiana Guard Company of the First Infantry. This company was a short time later reorganized as an artillery battery. James Law was present on all rolls until February 1862. For March and April, he is listed as "Absent, under arrest by Civil Process in Suffolk, Va. Claims exemption, British Subject." It is still unclear what became of this, although it appears that he may have continued serving with the unit until the end of 1862, when he returned to Hamilton. Shortly after arriving home, he became ill and died. [8] [HS]

This list is a revision, expansion, and (I hope) an improvement upon the previous lists that I have compiled. My intention is to list every Canadian who served in the Civil War for whom there is some sort of documentation. Unfortunately, much of the relevant materials is not readily available, and therefore this list will never be an accurate reflection of the number of Canadians who served in the war. Nevertheless, I hope that the list will bring more attention to the role that these men played and, hopefully, assist some genealogically-minded people in tracking down a long lost ancestor. Please keep in mind that the list is currently a "work in progress". I have pieced much of it together from other lists that I have previously compiled, using different formats. I hope to have this lack of uniformity rectified as soon as possible.

Law, James nativity: not stated; units(s): First Infantry, Louisiana Guard Battery--James Law resided in Hamilton, Canada prior to leaving for the United States in the summer of 1860. He eventually settled in New Orleans, and upon the breaking out of war, joined the Louisiana Guard Company of the First Infantry. This company was a short time later reorganized as an artillery battery. James Law was present on all rolls until February 1862. For March and April, he is listed as "Absent, under arrest by Civil Process in Suffolk, Va. Claims exemption, British Subject." It is still unclear what became of this, although it appears that he may have continued serving with the unit until the end of 1862, when he returned to Hamilton. Shortly after arriving home, he became ill and died. [8] [HS]

This list is a revision, expansion, and (I hope) an improvement upon the previous lists that I have compiled. My intention is to list every Canadian who served in the Civil War for whom there is some sort of documentation. Unfortunately, much of the relevant materials is not readily available, and therefore this list will never be an accurate reflection of the number of Canadians who served in the war. Nevertheless, I hope that the list will bring more attention to the role that these men played and, hopefully, assist some genealogically-minded people in tracking down a long lost ancestor. Please keep in mind that the list is currently a "work in progress". I have pieced much of it together from other lists that I have previously compiled, using different formats. I hope to have this lack of uniformity rectified as soon as possible.

This list is a revision, expansion, and (I hope) an improvement upon the previous lists that I have compiled. My intention is to list every Canadian who served in the Civil War for whom there is some sort of documentation. Unfortunately, much of the relevant materials is not readily available, and therefore this list will never be an accurate reflection of the number of Canadians who served in the war. Nevertheless, I hope that the list will bring more attention to the role that these men played and, hopefully, assist some genealogically-minded people in tracking down a long lost ancestor. Please keep in mind that the list is currently a "work in progress". I have pieced much of it together from other lists that I have previously compiled, using different formats. I hope to have this lack of uniformity rectified as soon as possible.

This list is a revision, expansion, and (I hope) an improvement upon the previous lists that I have compiled. My intention is to list every Canadian who served in the Civil War for whom there is some sort of documentation. Unfortunately, much of the relevant materials is not readily available, and therefore this list will never be an accurate reflection of the number of Canadians who served in the war. Nevertheless, I hope that the list will bring more attention to the role that these men played and, hopefully, assist some genealogically-minded people in tracking down a long lost ancestor. Please keep in mind that the list is currently a "work in progress". I have pieced much of it together from other lists that I have previously compiled, using different formats. I hope to have this lack of uniformity rectified as soon as possible.

This list is a revision, expansion, and (I hope) an improvement upon the previous lists that I have compiled. My intention is to list every Canadian who served in the Civil War for whom there is some sort of documentation. Unfortunately, much of the relevant materials is not readily available, and therefore this list will never be an accurate reflection of the number of Canadians who served in the war. Nevertheless, I hope that the list will bring more attention to the role that these men played and, hopefully, assist some genealogically-minded people in tracking down a long lost ancestor. Please keep in mind that the list is currently a "work in progress". I have pieced much of it together from other lists that I have previously compiled, using different formats. I hope to have this lack of uniformity rectified as soon as possible.

Those were the days of sailing ships augmented by steam power and China was as remote from the Eastern United States as it was possible to be. Still, Chinese Americans found their way to the East Coast, and researchers claim that as many as 50 Chinese fought as soldiers during the American Civil War. The number does not include the Chinese who served in the U.S. Navy. The soldiers fought on both sides. Chinese soldier of the Union participated in the most famous battle of the Civil War: the three-day Battle of Gettysburg. Pvt. Joseph L. Pierce enlisted in the 14th Connecticut Infantry in August 1862.

My interest concerning the participation of Hungarians in the Civil War (1861-65) began in earnest about a dozen years ago, when a friend in Hungary sent me a copy of Magyar America [Hungarian Amerika] by Ödön Vasváry, - better known in English-speaking circles as Edmund Vasvary - the renowned chronicler of Hungarian-American history.
An avid student of European and American history from an early age, I knew that Hungarians had fought in the conflict, but I was not familiar with the particulars of their lives. To satisfy my curiosity, I began to explore the Civil War literature and the writings of the 1848-49 War of Liberation exiles.
Initially I was laboring under the impression that, given the relatively small number of Hungarians involved, my findings would be meager. I didn't take very long to realize that my assumption was entirely incorrect; the amount of information available, albeit scattered, is simply staggering. Just in the massive 128-volume The War of the Rebellion: A Compilation of the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies, the "Bible" of the Civil War, there are hundreds of reports and letters by Hungarians, and an even greater number of documents by others mentioning them.
By going through thousands of primary and secondary American and Hungarian sources patiently and systematically over the years, following leads as they materialized, I managed to accumulate a vast body of details on nearly 150 Hungarians who served in the war. Sources consulted and yielding dividends included military records, federal and state publications, general historical works, census data, obituary notices, diaries, biographies and autobiographies, regimental histories, local history books and pamphlets, official and personal correspondences, literary reviews, reminiscenses of soldiers and civilians, campaign and battle accounts, newspaper stories, diplomatic papers, and popular and scholarly journal articles.
As I delved deeper and deeper into my reasearch, two facts became obvious: 1) there is no single comprehensive work adequately recounting the lives of these Hungarians, and 2) many of the books and articles contain glaring factual errors, misleading statements, and unwarranted suppositions.
The best known and most frequently quoted publication is Vasvary's Lincoln's Hungarian Heroes. Written in 1939, this slim volume, with a bilingual text and an extensive list of references, provides capsule sketches on a number of Hungarians not only on the Union side but also in the ranks of the Confederacy. For those unable to read Hungarian, the book remains the definitive work to this day. For example, the large section devoted to Hungarians in Ella Lonn's monumental and highly acclaimed Foreigners in the Union Army and Navy is based almost entirely on Lincoln's Hungarian Heroes.
Vasvary certainly deserves a lot of credit for his trail blazing efforts. He not only revised and improved upon the earlier writings of Eugene Pivány and Géza Kende, but also brought to light new information and placed people and events in their proper historical settings. His book contains much useful data and is a valuable guide to those seeking an introductory picture on the role of Hungarians in the Civil War.
Mistakes and oversights are bound to occur in pioneering works, and therefore it would be a grievious omission not to mention the shortcomings of the book. As pointed out by the eminent German-American historian Carl Wittke in his review of the monograph (p. 422, Vol. 26 (1939-1940) of The Mississippi Valley Historical Review), Vasvary lists several individuals who were definitely not Hungarians. On the other hand, conspicuous is the absence of Hugo Hollan, one of the better known figures among the emigres. A substantial portion of the biographical sketches is woefully sparse; often consisting of no more than one or two sentences. Various major and minor factual inaccuracies crop up throughout the text. The phrase "we have no other information about him" occurs far too often, leading the unwary reader to conclude that this is indeed the case when usually the opposite is true.
American writers unfamiliar with Hungarian names, history and customs tend to let their imagination roam freely when giving biographical details, resulting in startling and often comical errors. For example, in some Wisconsin historical publications Joseph Vandor, colonel of the 7th Wisconsin Infantry, has been "Dutchified" to Van Dor.
While such errors are to be expected and perhaps even be overlooked, others are inexcusable. For example, according to Smithsonian's Great Battles and Battlefields of the Civil War by Jay Wertz and Edwin C. Bearss, names respected in Civil War circles, General Alexander Asboth's left arm was so seriously injured during the battle of Marianna, Florida, that the limb had to be amputated. The numerous wounds Asboth sustained are graphically described in Medical and Surgical History of the War of the Rebellion as well as in Medical Histories of Union Generals. According to these, the doctors were able to save the mangled arm, though it remained quite useless. The Smithsonian's book also purports the battle as a Confederate victory, a claim not entertained by even rabid partisans of the Lost Cause.
To provide a succint, but reasonably thorough, overview of Hungarian participation in the Civil War and to correct some of the errors abounding, Also outlined at this site is a description of my book The Libby Prison Diary of Colonel Emeric Szabad, which contains an edited version of the diary, his biography, and a gist of the events which shaped the course of his life.
A very talented individual who wrote with equal ease in Hungarian, French and English, Szabad, a veteran of the 1848-49 War of Liberation and Giuseppe Garibaldi's campaign in southern Italy, spent several months in the notorious prison at Richmond, Virginia, after his capture by Confederate raiders while on a scouting mission. Because of its objectivity and non-recriminatory tone, his diary is often quoted in books and articles dealing with prisons and prisoners-of-war, perhaps the most sensitive and emotional issue of the war.
A lengthy article I contributed to the Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States (MOLLUS) on Major-General Julius Stahel, the highest ranking Hungarian of the Civil War and recipient of the prestigious Congressional Medal of Honor, while a shorter one on him for Arlington National Cemetery. My summary of the life and career of Frederick Knefler, colonel of the 79th Indiana Infantry, brigadier-general by brevet and lifelong friend of the famous author Lew Wallace, can be found at
A brief essay on Hungarian involvement in the Civil War, along with capsule biographies of six of the more notable figures (Alexander Asboth, Julius Stahel, Frederick Knefler, Nicholas Perczel, Charles Zagonyi and Frederick George D'Utassy), I prepared in conjunction with a presentation at the Hungarian Canadian Cultural Centre in Toronto.
One of the gratifying results of these postings has been the feedback from other Civil War enthusiasts and the subsequent lively exchange of information. Most pleasantly surprising has been the contact initiated by a half-dozen descendants of the families of Hungarian veterans of the war. Spencer Radnich, a direct descendant of Stephen Radnich, one of the few successful settlers of the Hungarian colony in New Buda, Iowa, was kind enough to send a batch of family documents, which provided invaluable information not only about Stephen, but also on his two more adventurous brothers: Imre, a member of the Lopez filibustering expedition against Cuba in August 1851, and János, artillery commander of the Hungarian Legion in Italy.
Despite the abundance of reliable information, some errors have become so ingrained that they pass for facts. One of the most widespread and persistent of these concerns the fate of Charles Zagonyi, commander of General John C. Frémont's Body Guard and later the general's chief of cavalry. Zagonyi owes his fame and seemingly ceaseless fascination by Civil War historians to his daring charge against an overwhelming number of Confederates at Springfield, Missouri, on October 25, 1861. Recent American articles on Zagonyi and his gallant deed tend to conclude with the comment that he returned to Hungary following the Compromise of 1867 and became the proprietor of a tobacco shop (e.g. "Taking Off the Kid Gloves" by Judy Yandoh in America's Civil War, March 1992). This contention is most assuredly wrong, with the most compelling evidence coming from the memoirs of his good friend Lajos Dancs. Zagonyi simply disappeared around 1867 while still in the United States and his fate remains shrouded in mystery.
Francis B. Heitman's Historical Register and Dictionary of the United States Army, published in 1903, denotes Leonidas Haskell, who served on General Frémont's staff, as a native of Hungary. Ever since, American writers, and even some Hungarian ones, have been routinely footnoting him as an Hungarian, even though it's quite evident from the writings of Jessie Benton Frémont, the general's redoubtable wife, that Haskell was the scion of an old New England family. Haskell was a sly and unpopular figure; fellow staff officer Colonel Albert Tracy refers to him in his diary as "a bird of ill omen," and asks: "Why are we to be always afflicted with this man - a most thorough disorganizer, and disliked by us all?" Therefore, Haskell's deletion from the list of Hungarians is no great loss.
A number of Hungarian works (e.g. Gábor Bona's Tábornokok és törzstisztek a szabadságharcban 1848-49 [Generals and Staff Officers in the 1848-49 War of Liberation]) state that Major Stephen Kovacs, 54th New York Infantry, perished while a captive in Libby Prison. Kovacs not only survived, but following his exchange returned to his regiment and continued his distinguished military career, as recapitulated in Frederick Phisterer's New York in the War of the Rebellion. He died in 1884; his obituary is printed in the April 17 issue of the New York Times.
Incidentally, while Hungarians fighting for the North have received considerable attention, Hungarians in the Southern army have been largely ignored. This is understandable; the overwhelming majority of Hungarians supported the Union, and only one, Colonel Bela Estvan, remembered more for his book War Pictures from the South than his military accomplishments, achieved prominence among the secessionists. For those desiring to learn more about Hungarians in the Confederacy, James P. McGuire's well-researched The Hungarian Texans is highly recommended.
Hopefully current and future writers will not repeat the mistakes of previous authors. Hungarians, in blue as well as in gray, served valiantly and deserve a faithful rendition of their lives, the only lasting monument to their memory.
Notes:
- The names of all participants in the Civil War is given as they appear in the standard American reference works.
- Lajos Kossuth (1802-1894) was Governor of Hungary during the 1848-49 War of Liberation. After the revolution was suppressed, he fled to Turkey, toured the United States from Dec. 1851 until July 1852, settled down in England, and then moved to Italy where he died.
- The Mississippi was the steam frigate dispatched by President Millard Fillmore to bring Kossuth and his companions to America.
- The Hungarian Legion in Italy was established shortly after Garibaldi's landing in Sicily in 1860 and remained in existence until 1867.

When more than two thirds of the men became seized with panic and retreated on the run, he remained with the party until dark when it came safely away, bringing its wounded, its arms and its colors.

As the threat of civil war loomed over the nation, Thomas Francis Meagher, joined the 69th New York State Militia. This was a ninety-day regiment that first saw action at First Bull Run and was under the command of Colonel Michael Cocoran. The colonel was captured and spent more than a year in a Confederate prison. When the ninety-day enlistment expired, Captain Meagher returned, with his regiment to New York.
Shortly after his return, Meagher began raising a unit of Irish volunteers to serve for a term of three years. This unit would eventually become the 63rd, 69th and 88th New York Voluntary Infantry Regiments. The 69th and 88th regiments were organized at Throgs Neck, New York and enlistments primarily occurred between early September through mid-November, 1861. The 63rd New York was organized at Staten Island, New York. Meagher was appointed brigadier general and took command of the Irish Brigade on February 5, 1862. During the spring of 1862 a non-Irish regiment, the 29th Massachusetts was added to strengthen the Brigade during the Peninsula Campaign.
In October, 1862, the men of the 116th Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment joined the ranks of the brigade. Composed primarily of Irishmen from Philadelphia they were organized at Camp Emitt and joined the brigade at Harper's Ferry. One month later, in November, 1862, the 29th Massachusetts was traded for another Irish regiment, the 28th Massachusetts. This regiment was organized at Cambridge, Massachusetts, December 13, 1861.
The brigade was assigned to General Edwin V. Sumner's Division, Army of the Potomac. In March of 1862, the brigade became the 2nd Brigade of the 1st Division, 2nd Army Corps.
Throughout its life in the Army of the Potomac, the Irish Brigade was almost always at the foremost position and suffered high casualties as a result. Such was the case at the "Bloody Lane" at Antietem, below Marye's Heights at Fredericksburg, the battle in the Wheatfield at Gettysburg and at Chancellorsville. Efforts were made after the Chancellorsville battle to disband the brigade. General Meagher protested this action and resigned his commission on May 14, 1863. Though his resignation was later cancelled, he never again served in the field with the Irish Brigade.
Though the brigade continued to distinguish itself on the battlefields, increasing casualties forced changes within the brigade. By June, 1864, the brigade had been reduced to that of nearly regimental size. The brigade was officially disbanded in June, 1864, with the 116th Pennsylvania being made part of the 2nd Corps, 1st Division, 4th Brigade, in July. The three New York regiments now comprised the 3rd Brigade. Later in the year, the Second Irish Brigade was created, comprising of the 63rd, 69th, 88th New York, the 28th Massachusetts and the 7th New York Heavy Artillery. The 7th New York was then replaced by the 4th New York Heavy Artillery in the early part of 1865. During its almost four years of service, the Irish Brigade lost more than 4,000 officers and men, more than which served within the brigade at any one time. Though Richard Byrnes, Richard Duryes, Patrick Kelly, Robert Nugent and Thomas Smyth held temporary commands at various times through the brigades existence, Thomas Francis Meagher served as the brigade's only commanding general.
Pages for Scandinavians who fought for the Confederate States during the War Between the States. The subject has been a forgotten part of the history of the War.
Little have been known about many of the units they fought and who they were. These pages will try to enlighten some of the Scandinavians "in rebel ranks" that did fight for their new homeland. Since the war ended, almost everything related in the Scandinavian community has envolved around their participation on the Union side, and that`s natural, since 97% of the soldiers did fight on this side of the conflict.
We`ll take a closer look on the last 3% of these brave men on "the other side".
Time to honor..
An impression of Southern general view goes to that Federal forces was "an army of foreigners and immigrants". That is to some extent true, but the view lefts out; too often, that there was a large number of "foreigners and immigrants" fighting in grey too. Their participation and "fighting spirit" have been toned down in Confederate WBTS-history. The truth is that in units with mostly "foreigners and immigrants" was amoung the hardest fighting. A good example of that are the 10th Louisiana - "Lee`s Foreign Legion". A regiment with over 22 different nations represented. Around the campfire you would hear soldiers speaking Russian, Polish, Spanish, French, Swedish, Norwegian, Italian, German etc. They did fight hard, and was in front on many occasions. So was others at fronts and battles around America during those faithful years... .
Scandinavian soldiers did share all the aspects of a WBTS-soldier: - you`ll find him in prison-camps for a long period, in hospitals, in massgraves on different battlefields, some even on "french-leave" for a period, others deserted both ways and several spoken of in greate honor. This pages will present them all...
The facination and interest of the WBTS drove us to present our fellow countrymen and bloodbrothers in CSA. Largely due to that we here and there came by statements from Scandinavian federal soldiers that they were in contact with fellow countrymen in grey, and books that have stated that there was Scandinavian soldiers in grey. We asked ourself: "Why haven`t we heard about them ? Who were they ?". We did understand that it was time to try to find " The Forgotten Boys of The South".
"I am wondering.."
You may wonder why we present all the Scandinavians together, since we are all independent nations ? The main reason is that they in most cases did fight together in same regiment or company. Secondly, Scandinavians in America, both South and North, did settle themselves in the same geographical area. The third reason is that the names of the soldiers are difficult to judge in some cases that they either was Danish, Swedish or Norwegian.This is because of the bad recordkeeping they kept in the South during the War. A search after immigrants/foreigners in the South are as "looking for a needle in the heystack". This is due to they didn`t in most cases write down place of birth or nationality in the soldiers military records.
Main aim..
The information presented have been collected thru many years, months, weeks, days and hours to get hold of by many different people. For our part, it has been a patient task to obtain all the data, and find bits and pices here and there. But,we do hope everyone enjoy our discoverys, because our main aim are to honor those who fought, and that people that are interested in Scandinavian participation during the War Between The States do have a source for information to turn to. A new leaf in Confederate history are about to be turned. Enjoy !
The involvement of Finns in the American Civil War (1861–1865) has received very little attention. The American Civil War, as we know, was the result of disagreements involving the issue of slavery between the northern and southern states of the Union. While the South favoured slavery, the North was against it. Literature which deals with the involvement of Finnish soldiers and sailors is limited to one major contribution (Ilmonen, 1919). In his book on Finnish-American history, a number of individuals -- particularly sailors -- are noted, who fought on the side of the Northern Union.
In this brief article, I present some findings of individuals who participated on both sides of the Civil War. A list of soldiers and sailors is also presented from data collected from Ilmonen (1919), from archival sources obtained from the U.S. National Archives in Washington DC as well as from the Sailor’s Snug Harbour facility which was the home for many retired Finnish sailors following the Civil War.
According to Ilmonen, the participation rate of the Finns was significant and greater than expected given the small Finnish population that lived in America at the time. Ilmonen estimates that some 1000 Finns lived in the United States during the 1860s, and of this number perhaps as many as one hundred Finns fought in the Northern Army and Navy (Ilmonen, 1919:158).
The largest proportion of Finns -- at least in the North -- joined the Navy. Only a few individuals were found in the Army. From primary sources dealing with the Confederacy, it appears that more Finns were part of the Army and Cavalry in the south.
Part of the reason for a lack of study on Finnish military involvement in the Civil War is the result of very poor records kept on the various enlisted personnel. Records are so poor in fact, that amongst the Confederate forces, no mention is made of the place of birth for the soldiers who were mustered into service in the Confederate South. Other scholars interested in this topic concur with this dilemma (Haggman, 1997; Olin, 1997). This has hindered the research in establishing ties to Finland, although a number of names are presented in this article which may undoubtedly have Finnish roots regardless of the spelling which may have been altered during the enlisting of each soldier.
An extensive 16-volume collection of participants in the Confederate Forces was published in 1995 (Hewett, 1995). Examination of this collection produced about a dozen names of possible Finnish soldiers, even though the spelling may be erroneous. Names such as Lambie and Mattil were originally believed to be of possible Finnish origin, but cross-referencing these names with the little data available for the Confederate Forces indicated that Lambie (who reached the rank of 1st Lieutenant in Virginia) was of Irish birth (Military Service Records - Virginia). According to other information, the Lambie name originates from Scotland (Lambie, 1998). The surname Mattil in turn most likely was of German origin (Mathiel) which was changed during the 1800s (Mattil, 1998).
A collection of names from the Union (Northern) Forces has been established previously by Ilmonen, and thus the soldiers in the Southern Forces is entirely new to the reader. The available literature generally points that more Finnish immigrants resided in the northern states, and thus more Finns were fighting in the Northern armies and navies than in the Confederate South. However, there were sizeable Finnish populations in coastal cities such as New Orleans, Louisiana during the 1860s, where up to 200 Finns resided (Kero, 1997:130).
The presence of these early Finns may have been a source for some Finns in the Confederacy as proposed by the discovered data. Present research into the American Civil War and the Finnish involvement is being conducted by scholars such as K-G Olin of Jacobstad, Finland and Dr. Haggman of Helsingborg, Sweden (Olin, 1997; Haggman, 1997). Additional confirmation and service and pension records are being sought by the author for the numerous Union sailors listed by Ilmonen

Among the best examples of Finnish military involvement is found among the Union Forces, where Otto Mauno Geers served as a sailor and eventual quartermaster in the Navy (See Photo). Born in the parish of Eura, he immigrated to the United States in 1860 and settled in Boston. The following year he joined the Navy. Geers served in the Navy consecutively for 21 years.
Geers participated in a number of battles, and according to Ilmonen, the most memorable fight was the Battle of New Orleans. In this battle, Geers’ ship was sunk, and a large number of the crew drowned. As the ship was sinking, Geers jumped into the Mississippi River at the same time as the main mast was shot down by the Confederates. With the mast, the U.S. flag fell into the river. Geers grabbed the flag and swam to shore saving himself and the flag, which he kept as a treasured keepsake.
Among the Finns in the Confederate Forces, one sailor was discovered as being part of the 60-man crew of the renown Confederate Cruiser Alabama (Lonn, 1940:297). This sailor was named "Jackalanwiski", whose name is most likely spelled incorrectly. According to an autobiography written by an English sailor on board the ship Alabama, "Jackalanwiski" was such a difficult name to pronounce that the crew called this Finn by the name "Jack-o-lantern" (Haywood, 1886:36).
Haywood tells how the crew began to have re-occurring dreams which were interpreted as events that were to happen in the future. The Finnish "Jack-o-lantern" was a translator of dreams, and using a "dreambook" and speaking with "mysterious gutturals" (possibly in the Finnish language which does sound strange to foreigners!), attempted to embellish the situation and interpret the dreams. While the crew of the Alabama wanted to hear an interpretation of their dreams, an older bible-preaching member of the crew declared the event as being blasphemous and of the devil. This older sailor urged the crew to throw the devilish Finn overboard into the sea. Apparently the crew was afraid to do so. Haywood, who writes about the battles and travels of the C.C. Alabama until the final battle and destruction with the U.S.S. Kearsage in 1864 does not say anything else about the Finnish sailor (Haywood, 1886:114–115).
Conclusions
Much research remains to be done in a search for possible Finnish military involvement in the American Civil War. In discussions with members of the Virginia Civil War Round Table (a local group of Virginia historians interested in the Confederate Forces and the battles of the Civil War), even the thoroughly knowledgeable historians lack information on the involvement of the Finns (WSVA AM-550). The presence of the Swedes is much better known, and a few Russians have also been documented as participating in the Civil War. The Finns, however, remain a mystery. If, as Ilmonen suggests, the Finns represented a high degree of involvement compared to other immigrant groups found in the United States during the Civil War period, it is important to pursue this claim and uncover the stories and experiences of the Finns who fought on both sides of the War. Time consuming research in historical archives in locations such as Washington DC, Richmond, Virginia, and other locations are needed to build on the small list of names presented here.
By the outbreak of the War Between the States, there were some 1261 Danes, of all ages and both sexes, residing in the Southern states . The following served in the Confederate army and Militia (in parenthesis is noted birthplace in Denmark, if known).
Note that all names are indexed here in the spelling most frequently used on the muster rolls (more or less radically changed from the original Danish spelling). Full Danish name is given in connection with date and place of birth in the roster.

he 1860 census shows 188 Norwegians residing in the future 11 Confederate States, Texas excepted. There were 63 in Louisiana and 51 in Alabama - for the most part in New Orleans and Mobile -, with a small number scattered in Mississippi, Tennessee, Florida, Virginia, Georgia, Arkansas, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
Only 46 individuals have been identified as Confederate soldiers or sailors, but this number must probably be multiplied by 3 in order to arrive at a reasonable estimate of the total number of Norwegians who served in the Confederate military forces outside of Texas. Not all the records of the individuals listed below have yet been examined, thus there may be one or two Swedes or Danes among them. Very much research remains to be done with regard to this subject.
Note that all names are indexed here in the spelling most frequently used on the muster rolls (in parenthesis is noted birthplace in Norway, if known). Full Norwegian name is given in connection with date and place of birth in the roster, if known.

Not much is known about what was probably the only distinctly Scandinavian unit in the Confederate army, the Scandinavian Guards of New Orleans. Its muster roll, with the names of 100 officers and men, is reproduced here. This is the only roll in existence, and was provided by the Military Library, Louisiana National Guard (Jackson Barracks, New Orleans)
According to existing papers, the Scandinavian Guards was probably organized early November 1861. It became Company A of the Chalmette Regiment, Louisiana Militia, led by Colonel Ignatius Szymanski, native of Poland and known as "Old Sky". The regiment was entirely made up of foreigners. They were only to be called into service when the situation in the vicinity demanded it, in accordance with the regulations for local defense troops, established by act of C.S Congress on 21 August 1861.
A letter from an anonymous Danish ex-member of the Scandinavian Guards, dated New Orleans 15 Aug 62, sheds a little light on the organization of the company: ".. In order to avoid coming among so many different nationals, each nation organized its own companies for the defense of New Orleans. We now formed a company of Danes, Swedes, and some Norwegians, which was styled the Scandinavian Guards. We were armed with revolver-rifles,..., sword bayonet, dagger and pistol in the belt.." [printed in Almuevennen (Christiania (Oslo), Norway) no. 45, 8 November 1862, p. 359-60]

In April 1862, Lovell organized the defenses of New Orleans into two districts; the Coast Defenses (exterior lines) under Brig. Gen.. Johnson K. Duncan, and the Chalmette-McGehee Defenses (interior lines) under Brig. Gen. Martin L. Smith. Buisson's 1780 poorly armed state volunteers were assigned to Smith's command. On April 5, the Chalmette Regiment, with a strength of about 500 men, arrived at Quarantine Station, about 5 miles above Forts Saint Philip and Jackson, to guard the approaches to the city from the sea through the bayous and canals, on both sides of the river. Shortly afterwards, however, unprecedented high water dislogded many of the troops, who had to be removed to the west bank. Company D was detached to man the water battery at Fort Saint Philip.
On 18 April the Union Navy began a six-day bombardment of Forts St. Philip and Jackson. Then, on 24 April, the Federal fleet blasted past the forts and landed 18000 men on the eastern shore, near Fort St. Philip. The entire Chalmette Regiment (except Company D) was captured and paroled at Quarantine Station on 24 April 1862.
Lieutenant George H. Perkins of the USS Cayuga described the scene in a letter dated New Orleans, April 27, 1862:
"..The Cayuga still led the way up the river and at daylight we discovered a regiment of infantry encamped on shore. As we were very close in, I shouted to them to come on board and deliver up their arms, or we would blow them all to pieces. It seemed rather odd for a regiment on shore to be surrendering to a ship! They hauled down their colors, and the Colonel and command came on board and gave themselves up as prisoners of war. The regiment was called the Chalmette Regiment, and has been quite a famous one. The officers were released on parole and allowed to retain their sidearms, all except one Captain, who I discovered was from New Hampshire..."
At the military court of inquiry assembled in Jackson, Miss., to investigate the fall of New Orleans, Colonel Szymanski made the following statement when asked about the surrender of his regiment (April 18, 1863):
"When the forts were passed, just about break of day, the fleet came upon my small camp and opened fire. After losing some 30 men killed and wounded, without a possibility of escape or rescue- perfectly at the mercy of the enemy, he being able to cut the levee and drown me out- I thought it my duty to surrender. A single shell could have cut the light embankment."
Later, when Union Maj. Gen. Benjamin F. Butler assumed command in New Orleans, the officers and men of the Volunteer State Troops residing in the city were arrested as prisoners of war, and those who did not take the loyalty oath were exchanged on 8 October 62 near Vicksburg, Miss. The majority did take the oath, but a number enlisted in Confederate Louisiana units serving in the Vicksburg area.
At the upcoming reenactment of the Battle of Chickamauga in Georgia, a Norwegian Civil War story will be told. In September, the 15th Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry will be recreated at Chickamauga to tell an almost forgotten tale of brave immigrants turned soldiers.
News of Norway, issue 4, 1999
Led by Colonel Hans Christian Heg, the 15th Wisconsin was known as the Scandinavian regiment. Though thousands of Norwegians served on both sides of the war, the 15th in the Federal Army was the only Scandinavian regiment on either side. The soldiers of the 15th were predominantly Norwegian, including Col. Heg, but there were officers and enlisted men from Denmark and Sweden as well. The soldiers of the 15th were immigrants who had settled in Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
The idea to include the Scandinavian regiment in the reenactment that takes place Sep. 17-19 came from Scott Meeker, a computer software salesman from Wisconsin. Meeker, who has been a Civil War reenactor for years, was working with a reenactment group in Wisconsin, piecing together parts of the 15th Wisconsin's story and reenacting it for the public in Norwegian- American communities in Wisconsin. Late in the summer of 1997, Meeker heard about the plans to reenact the Battle of Chickamauga, where the 15th suffered large losses. "I thought that it would be very special if we could arrange for the 15th to be portrayed as a part of the overall reenactment and got involved with trying to make that happen," Meeker said. In order to pitch the idea to the Chickamauga organizing committee, Meeker needed to know more about the story he was pitching. A reenactment is not the mere physical portrayal of a historical moment.
According to Meeker, the participants need to know who their characters were, what the dynamics of the regiment were like and so on. The reenactors not only paint the picture but they relive and experience a situation that took place over a hundred years ago. For an untrained eye, a reenactment might look like utter chaos, but every battle is carefully planned, in detail, years in advance.
When taking a closer look at the 15th, Meeker discovered that a lot of the 15th's history was inaccessible to him due to a language barrier, as the literature about the regiment was mostly in Norwegian. Meeker then began doing his own research. The results of his research so far can be seen at the 15th Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry web site at www.15thwisconsin.net. Meeker said that he felt this was the best way to make the material accessible to the public.
The web site offers the full history of the 15th and profiles many of the soldiers and their stories. Currently, Meeker is working on finding the personal stories and destinies of the 906 officers and enlisted men of the 15th Wisconsin. One can also find the latest news on the upcoming reenactment at Chickamauga.
There is also a help page on the web as Meeker is dependent upon information from relatives or family friends in order to piece together the story of the 15th. Currently, he is in search of the name of an unknown soldier, whose picture is displayed on the page.
The 15th Wisconsin reenactment at Chickamauga will be closed to the general public. However, a special viewing arrangement has been granted to descendants of the 15th's soldiers, a group visiting from Scandinavia and others who have a special interest in the 15th Wisconsin, according to Meeker. The special guests will get to watch the battle at the Viniard's Farm, which takes place early Saturday morning on Sep. 18.
The Battle of Chickamauga, which took place Sep. 12-20, 1863, was the second bloodiest battle of the Civil War. In 4 hours of battle, the 15th Wisconsin suffered around 50 percent casualties. When the 15th went into the fight on the right wing of the Federal Army under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Johnson, there were 176 officers and enlisted men. The morning after the battle, only 75 officers and enlisted men answered roll call. A number of the 15th's men ended up in the notorious Andersonville Prison Camp. If it hadn't been for two companies left behind at Island No. 10, which the 15th helped capture, the 15th Wisconsin would have ceased to exist. For their bravery at Chickamauga, several of the 15th's soldiers were awarded the rank of Brevet Captain.
Col. Heg, who had been crucial in recruiting the men of the Scandinavian regiment that was mustered into service on Feb. 14, 1862, at Camp Randall in Madison, Wis., was among the casualties. The popular Norwegian born officer who had emigrated to the U.S. in 1840 died in a field hospital the day after the battle.
He would never know that Major General William S. Rosencrans, commander of the Army of the Cumberland, had intended to promote Heg to Brigadier General. Heg was still the highest ranked Wisconsin soldier killed in the Civil War, though. Rosencrans, who was relieved of his duty as commander of the Army of the Cumberland after the defeat at Chickamauga, said of Heg: "His bravery, demonstrated in many engagements, is unquestioned. It is not however, the reckless daring of an unskilled and careless man, but the cool and determined valor of a competent, thoughtful commander. He is prudent, but not timid; deliberate, but not slow in movement. In person he is of medium size, rather slender, and with features more than ordinarily prepossessing. With the courage he has power of endurance so natural to the Scandinavian, and well calculated to share the hardships and privations of a march as he directs the movements of his command."
Heg, who was the first Norwegian elected to a Wisconsin state-wide office, was buried at the Norway Lutheran Church Cemetery near Wind Lake, Wisc.
But the 15th Wisconsin cannot only be found in Georgia this fall. The history of the Scandinavian regiment will also appear at an outdoor history museum during Southeastern Wisconsin Labor Day weekend. The event will include a reunion of descendants of the 15th's soldiers, a warm up event for the reenactors and portrayal of what life was like for the 15th Wisconsin soldiers of the Federal Army. Two weeks later, the reenactors of the 15th Wisconsin will be among some 10,000 people expected to take part at Chickamauga.

Following the capture of Fort Donelson, Tennessee, 16 February 1862, some 30 Norwegians are reported to have been among the Confederate prisoners at Camp Douglas, Chicago, Illinois.
Surgeon Stephen O. Himoe, 15th Wisconsin Infantry Regiment, writes from Camp Randall, Madison, Wisconsin, 25 February 1862: "..Major Riis [Major Carl M. Riise, 15th Wisconsin] was also on the train during the return trip from Chicago, where he had seen the Norwegian prisoners. There are about 30 of them...."

Federal prisoner John McElroy, a private of Co. L, 16th Illinois Cavalry, described his arrival at Savannah, Georgia, after a stay in Andersonville: "..Our guards were now mostly sailors from the rebel fleet in the harbor - Irishmen, Englishmen and Scandinavians..."
[John McElroy, "This Was Andersonville", p. 183]
NOTE: As far as we know, 110 Norwegian Federal soldiers was at Andersonville and 79 of these died there. Most of them was from 15th Wisconsin Infantry Regiment, and been captured during Chichamuga and New Hope Church battles.
The following is a list of the Norwegians who served in the Texas Militia, Texas State Troops (TST), or other local defense military organizations. These were mostly small units which were in the field for a limited time only. This is just a survey - a more detailed roster will follow in a later edition.
