Concord Extract of Third North Carolina Volunteer Regiment [Colored Troops] 
Company Rosters -- Spanish-American War of 1898 

The 3rd Regiment of North Carolina Volunteers mustered in on May 12, 1898 at 
Fort Macon, North Carolina as a Battalion and then in July increased by seven 
companies to the 3rd NC Regiment.  In September the Regiment moved to 
Knoxville, Tennessee and in November to Macon, Georgia.  In Macon the 1st 
Army Corps (of which 3rd NC was a part) was alerted to prepare to proceed to 
Cuba but on 8 February 1899 the Regiment (and most other volunteer regiments) 
began the muster out of service.  The 3rd NCV didn't participate in the battles of 
the Spanish American War but those men who gave of their liberty and freedoms, 
if only for the preparation of war, are certainly worthy of our remembrances.

Captain Joseph J. Hood, Company D
Sergeant Terry White, Company D
Corporal James Pope, Company D
Private Arthur Barnes, Company D
Private Green Coleman, Company D
Private Amziah Crews, Company D
Private Alfred Faggart, Company D
Private George Harris, Company D
Private William Hammards, Company D
Private Henry Ivey, Company D
Private Allen Johnston, Company D
Private Zebulon Lynn, Company D
Private Edward Martin, Company D
Private George Miller, Company D
Private William Morrison, Company D
Private William Neil, Company D
Private Samuel Wilson, Company D
Private Jessie L. Beatty, Company D (disch. 12/19/1898)
Private Robert Christian, Company D (disch. 1/17/1899)
Private Charley Greeley, Company G

It seems clear that Company D was the "Concord" unit among the 3rd North 
Carolina Volunteers.
