Scott, my gg grandfather, Fowler Hembree enlisted in the 13th SC Infantry, Co I, on Sep 3, 1861, Spartanburg District. On Aug 29, 1862, he was wounded at the Battle of Second Manassas. He lost his right arm and muster roll for Nov and Dec 1862 reports he is at home on wounded furlough. I had the oportunity to visit Manassas battle field a few years ago and was able to visit the area where the 13th SC held a flank aganist the advancing Union forces. From accounts I have read of the 13th, the unit was involved in some bitter fighting at Manassas which got down to hand to hand combat. The 13th, having expended their ammo, threw rocks in their defense. I bought a copy of THE HISTORY OF A BRIGADE OF SOUTH CAROLINIANS by J.F.J. Caldwell which is a history of the 13th. Caldwell, a lieutenant in the brigade began the history while in the field. The history came to be written largely upon the insistance ot BG Samuel McGowan. I am proud of all my ancestors who wore the Sourthen Grey and am very fortunate to have a large oval framed picture of Fowler taken after the War. He is dressed in dark clothing and the right sleeve of his coat is pinned up. Great to meet someone else with 13th SC Vol Inf connections. Jack.
