There were a number of Greene county men in the Black Hawk war in 1831, of whom no records were kept. Some enlisted from other counties or states and located in Greene county after their military service, of such there are no records to be found. Of those whose records we cannot find I would call attention to Mr. Samuel Thomas, Mr. Black; from this cause we are compelled to disappoint the friends of a few worthy sol- ciers. J. B. HAYS.
MEXICAN WAR.
On the 11th of May, 1846, the United States congress declared that by the act of the Republic of Mexico, a state of war ex-

isted between that government and the Uni- ted States; at the same time appropriated $10,000,000 to carry on the war, and author- ized the President to call for 50,000 volun- teers. These troops were mostly secured from the southern and western states; Hli- nois furnished four regiments for one year service, the Ist, 2d. 3rd and 4th. After the expiration of this service the 5th and 6th regiments (known during the war as the Ist and 2d) were organized, mostly composed of veterans of the ist, 2d, 3rd and 4th regi- ments that had just been mustered out of service. Company C of the Ist Regiment was recruited from Greene county. After organization, the Ist Regiment started down the Mississippi river July 15. 1846. crossed the Gulf of Mexico, and established camp near the old town of Victoria in Texas. From this commenced the long march of more than one thousand miles to the south. Crossing the Rio Grande River, they entered Santa Rosa, Mexico, October 24. After resting a few days they took up their knapsacks and continued their Tramp. Tramp. Tramp: passing through Monclova, Parras and on to intercept Gen. Santa Anna's attack on Monterey, arriving at Agna Nueva, ending a six weeks' campaign. The army under General Wool rested here until January, 1847, when the march was resumed, Gen. Zachary Taylor in command. On the 22d and 23rd of February, the battle of Buena Vista was fought and the Mexicans, under Gen. Santa Anna, were completely routed, and the Ist and 2nd Illinois Regiments did honor to themselves and the state they rep- resented. The Ist Illinois lost fifty men killed and wounded in this engagement. This ended the active service of this regi- ment. On May 28, the regiment received orders for muster out, which was done at
Camargo, Mexico, June 17, 1847. After muster out the regiment returned home, dis- banding at Alton, Illinois.

tucky. One wishing to look up the records, should know the regiment and company of the soldier to begin with.
The result of this war was the acquisi- tion of 1,246,166 square miles of territory to our domain, from which have been erected the states of Texas, the western half of Colo- rado, Utah, Nevada, California, and the ter- ritories of Arizona and New Mexico, vast in resources, unlimited in the precious met- als, iron, coal, agricultural products and fruits of the temperate and semi-tropic zones ; the highest mountains; the broadest plains, and a most salubrious climate.
THE CIVIL WAR, 1861 TO 1865.
We now enter upon the titantic struggle for maintenance of the United States, for the great principles for which the war of the Revolution was fought-Liberty and National supremacy-instead of a compro- mised confederation of States. In 1861, we had a mongrel government, a compromise of a free Christian national government, with a loosely constructed confederation of states ; supported by one of the blackest crimes of the dark ages. This condition was no fault of the people living at this time, but the fruits of an unchristian greed of the owners of a cargo, that was landed on the James River in 1620. We, who filled the ranks of the Union army from 1861 to 1865, have no personal enmity against our brothers of the grey, with stars and bars, but the time had come when a "house divided against itself could not stand, but this government should and would become all free or all slave." Greene county sent 1,600 men to make this government all free. These men volun- teered to leave the comforts of home, and the dearest family ties, and take up the gun and
knapsack to do and to die, that freedom might live. I will give a few facts from the records of the war department to refresh the memory of a later generation of what their fathers did, that they might enjoy this great and good government, the beacon light of the world.
The total enlistments of the United States army 1861 to 1865 :
Total enlisted for 30 days 300
Total enlisted for 2 months 2,045
Total enlisted for 3 months 108,416
Total enlisted for 100 days 85.507
Total enlisted for 4 months 44

1,012
Grand total enlistments 2.778,606
.A great number of these were separate enlistments. A large number of individual soldiers enlisted from two to ten times, short term men and bounty jumpers; deduct the frequent enlistments, the bounty jumpers, deserters, and the 136,000 who veteranized, from the total number and in all probability less than 2,000,000 different men served during the war; this 2,000,000 includes of- ficers, privates, enlisted cooks, teamsters, musicians, pioneers, railroad, steamboat, quartermasters and commissary depart- ment, provost, post and R. R. guards, from the northern states to the army in the field, from the Atlantic to the Pacific oceans, and of these are included over 300,000 enlisted just at the close of the war and saw but little or no active service.

ORGANIZATION OF U. S. ARMY, 1861 TO 1865.
A company had one captain, one first lieutenant, one second lieutenant, one first or- derly sergeant and four duty sergeants, eight corporals and eighty-six privates. A regi- ment of infantry consisted of what are called
line officers as follows : one colonel, one lieu- tenant-colonel, one major, one adjutant, one quartermaster, one surgeon, two assistant surgeons, one chaplain, one sergeant major, one quartermaster and one commissary ser- geant, one hospital steward, one wagon mas- ter and helps for these officers; the fighting strength was composed of ten companies ; a regiment of cavalry, and of artillery com- posed of twelve companies, each of which was larger than infantry companies. A bri- gade was commanded by a brigadier-gen- eral, a brevet brigadier general, or by a col- onel who held the oldest commission; a brigade consisted of from three to five regi- ments, usually of five ; a division usually con- sisted of three brigades, designated as first, second and third. The division was com- manded by a major, or brevet major-general, more frequently in last two years of the war by a brigadier, often by a brevet brigadier- general. A corps consisted of three divis- ions, designated as first, second and third di- visions : their colors were: red for the first ; white, the second ; and blue the third. A corps was designated by a badge, as the fourth corps badge was a maltese cross, worn on the hat ; the first division a red cross : the second, a white cross; the third, a blue cross. The 14th corps badge was the acorn attached to its cup; the 15th corps badge was a repre- sentation of a cartridge box, with "forty rounds" stamped upon it. The forty desig- nated the number of cartridges contained in a box. 17th corps badge was an arrow ; the 20th corps badge a five pointed star ; and so on from the first to the twenty-fifth corps. A corps was commanded by a major or brevet major-general; an army consisted usually of two corps, commanded by a major-gen- eral. The different armies had names as Army of the Tennessee, Army of Georgia,
201
PAST AND PRESENT OF GREENE COUNTY.
Army of Ohio, Army of the Cumberland, Army of the Gulf and so on. A department consisted of two or more armies, as the de- partment of the East; Department of the trans-Mississippi ; the Middle Department ; and the Department of the Gulf. In estimat- ing the size of any integral part of the army, after January, 1863, make it on the basis of about 25 to 30 men to a company.
The Northern or Union States in 1860 had a military population of 4,500,000, add to this 500,000 boys who became of service age during the war, make a totol of 5,000,- 000: about two-fifths or 2,000,000 entered the army. The eleven Confederate states had 1.065,000 of military age in 1860, 200,- 000 became of service age during the war, the conscripted from 16 to 50 years of age, which gave the south near 1,500,000 men subject to military duty, four-fifths of whom were forced into the army; to this add those who volunteered from Delaware. 5,000; Maryland, 10,000; West Virginia. 38,000; Kentucky, 45,000; and Missouri. 50,000: a total of 1,618,000, this is taken from the best data obtainable, for the Confederates kept no records after the middle of 1863: they had 4,000,000 slaves to leave at home to raise provisions for the army, which enabled them to send approximately all their military population into the army. There were 765 regiments that served during the entire war. and were constantly being filled by con- scripts instead of forming new regiments as the North did : there were also home guards of boys and old men who held rear points ; such held the trenches at Petersburg June 15. 1864. until General Lee came up. There were also partisan bands. under Moseby and John Morgan, made up mostly from Mis- souri and Kentucky. There are no reports of losses during the last twelve months of
the war, excepting from the two Carolinas. North Carolina with a military population of 115,000, reports 19,673 killed and died of wounds, and 20,000 died of disease, a total death roll of 39,673; South Carolina with 55,046 military age, reports a loss in killed and died of wounds, 12.922; died of disease, 4,760 ; total deaths, 17,682 ; Virginia military population 196,587, reports only 7,847 ; died of disease, 6,947; total deaths, 14.794; 3,000 less than South Carolina, and 25,000 less than North Carolina: Alabama with twice the number of military population of South Carolina, reports 742 killed and died of wounds, and 724 died of disease ; a total death roll of 1.466; Texas with almost twice the military strength of South Caro- lina. reports number of killed and wounded, 2.589 ; death by disease, 1,260; total deaths, 3.849. To base the Confederate losses on the reports of the two Carolinas would be the proper way to estimate, which would give the Confederate losses about 100,000 in killed and died of wounds. The reports up to 1864 were fairly well kept, and at that time Confederate and Union losses were about equal, and it is fair to presume they so continued to the end of the war. The Confederate reports give no report of their losses in 149 battles, which is a great in- justice to the Confederate soldiers : this pol- icy was pursued by general order. The fighting regiments of the Confederacy were in more hard battles than any individual Union regiments, they having shorter dis- tances to travel, could be rushed from place to place to meet different commands of the Union army. . A large number of southern regiments fought in many large battles, while but few Union regiments was engaged in more than two or three large battles. MI- most one-third of the Union army never

heard the crash of battle, they were guard- ing points in the rear, but they did all the duty they were called upon to do and did it well. The loss of life and maimed was greater in this four years strife than similar losses of all the world in the preceding hun- dred years.
