Charles Bryant - Private
|
Charles Bryant joined Orr's Rifles (1st Regiment) in 1862 as a
private from Anderson County. Orr's Rifles was later incorporated into Gregg's Brigade and ultimately into Stonewall
Jackson group. They fought at Fredericksburg where Bryant was
captured. He may have been released and recaptured a second
time. He was pardoned at Appomattox Courthouse in 1865. Very
proud he made it through all of that.
