Another Soldier Killed at Camp Wildcat in His First Battle, Lewis McFerrin, USA


From the Camp Wildcat Preservation Foundation.

The Civil War lasted barely a month for Private Lewis McFerrin of the Union Army.  He died on the morning of October 21, 1861, less than twenty minutes into his first battle.

He was one of fifteen men listed as killed at the Battle of Wildcat Camp.

I haven't been able to find out what Union regiment he was with.
