Civil War in NE North Carolina
Burnside's Expedition and beyond
The Museum of the Albemarle is trying to identify the two Confederate soldiers in the photos below. If you recognize them, contact me at rblong@rblong.net .
The one below has been identified as Corp. Stephen N. Woodard, Co. A, 1st NC.
Chris M. Perry from Hobbsville has been very helpful with grave photos and information. I got an unexpected assist from my sister, of all people! (She has no interest in the Civil War but is very interested in geneology.)

I decided to search the Compiled Service Records for references to the 7th Regiment NC Volunteers to confirm the letter designations I had previously found in Fort Warren reports and autographs signed while at Fort Warren. (Autograph books became a fad among the officers while imprisoned there.)
The original line-up was apparently:
Co. A - Washington Grays
