In April 1862, the Civil War was entering its second year and North
Carolina was rallying to supply more troops for the Confederacy.
The Partisan Ranger Act, passed by the Confederate Congress on
April 21, prompted local leaders to recruit companies of irregular
soldiers for service in the Confederate Army. Seven such companies
were banded together into a regiment to form the 4th North Carolina
Cavalry: a true cross-section of North Carolina, it contained
soldiers from the largest urban areas and smallest rural areas from
fifteen counties. This history of the 4th North Carolina Cavalry is
based largely on primary source material - the official records,
letters, diaries and recollections of the soldiers. The 4th North
Carolina saw action in North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and
Pennsylvania, and was a part of General Lee's Army of Northern
Virginia. The roster comprises a large part of the book and
provides biographical, genealogical and military information about
each soldier.
