19th Regiment, Georgia Infantry
19th Infantry Regiment was assembled during the summer of 1861. Its companies were raised in Henry, Jackson, Douglas, Coweta, Carroll, Mitchell, and Bartow counties. Comprising 900 men, the unit was sent to Virginia and placed in the Potomac District. In April, 1862, it totalled 395 effectives and during the war served under the command of Generals W. Hampton, Archer, and Colquitt. The 19th fought in many battles from Seven Pines to Chancellorsville, then moved to Charleston, South Carolina, and later Florida where it took part in the conflict at Olustee. In April, 1864, it returned to Virginia and continued the fight at Proctor's Creek and Cold Harbor and in the Petersburg lines south and north of the James River. This regiment lost 32 killed and 157 wounded during the Seven Days' Battles, 13 killed and 76 wounded in the Maryland Campaign, and 3 killed and 40 wounded at Chancellorsville. It sustained 96 casualties at Olustee. In 1865 the unit participated in the North Carolina Campaign and surrendered with the Army of Tennessee. The field officers were Colonels William W. Boyd, Andrew J. Hutchins, and James H. Neal; Lieutenant Colonels Tilman W. Flynt, Ridgway B. Hogan, and Thomas C. Johnson; and Majors William Hamilton, John W. Hooper, and Charles W. Mabry.

19th Georgia Volunteers, "Army of Northern Virginia Series, Heroes and Martyrs of Georgia, Georgia's Record in the Revolution of 1861," by James Madison Folsom. See the 1st Georgia for more information on this title.
1st Georgia Volunteers, "Army of Northern Virginia Series, Heroes and Martyrs of Georgia, Georgia's Record in the Revolution of 1861," by James Madison Folsom. An early and ambitious endeavor. A series of 4 volumes was planned but only this one was published. "The greater portion of my MSS, wrote Folsom, having been either carried off or destroyed by the Federals in their march through Georgia. I will be compelled to revisit the army, and re-collect the material to complete my work." Included are 18 detailed histories of infantry, cavalry, and artillery units, most of them written in the summer of 1864 by Confederate officers in the trenches at Petersburg. The author, James M. Folsom, originally intended on issuing multiple volumes that would chronicle the service of every military unit raised in Georgia during the Confederacy. Wartime experiences, including the destruction of his manuscripts at the hands of Sherman's men and postwar poverty, prevented Folsom from ever completing his project. The one volume he was able to publish through the firm of Burke, Boykin, and Company of Georgia, appeared for sale in the spring of 1865, only weeks before Appomattox. Today, fewer than a dozen of original copies of Heroes and Martyrs are known to exist in public repositories. 192 pages, cost $ 35.00, from Butternut & Blue, 3411 Northwind Rd., Baltimore, MD 21234. (Note: With histories of 18 Georgia regiments packed into only 192 pages, one must conclude that it must be concise to say the least!)
