Roster of Columbus County, NC Confederate Veterans Submitted to the USGenWeb Project by Dr. Jerome Smith gsmith@weblnk.net Roster of Columbus County NC Confederate Veterans This is a roster of the Columbus County, North Carolina Confederate Veterans. The list has been gleaned from A Roster of Confederate Veterans of Columbus County, Mrs. Homer L. Lyon, Jefferson Davis Chapter 657 United Daughters of the Confederacy, 1959. This publication referenced Application of United Daughters of the Confederacy papers, Cross of Honor Papers, North Carolina: Building an Ancient Commonwealth, American Historical Society, Inc., North Carolina Pension Rolls, Roster of North Carolina Troops in the War Between the States, John W. Moore, 1882, and lists of County Veterans from Camp James. Although the list Mrs. Lyon compiled is based on older works (particularly Moore's roster) most of the information is correct. Moore's publication has long been recognized as being inadequate and the North Carolina Department of Archives has been busy with a more accurate compilation, complete with mini-biographies. Consequently, corrections and additions to this list will be made as newer references are studied. Company H 51st Regiment soldiers are from North Carolina Troops 1861-1865 A Roster, North Carolina Division of Archives, Raleigh, 1990. This is the most reliable and most recent source available. Selecting a highlighted name opens the associated biography.
