This blog grew out of my "Down Da Road I Go Blog," which was originally to be about stuff I was interested in, music and what I was doing. There was so much history and Civil War entries, I spun two more off. Starting Jan. 1, 2012, I will be spinning a Naval blog off this one called "Running the Blockade."

Some More On Private Stockwell
Elisha Stockwell's memoirs were put into a book in 1985 "Private Elisha Stockwell, Jr. Sees the Civil War," 224 pages, edited by Byron R. Abernathy.
Several sources said it was good reading, especially to get a teenager's view of service during the war. He enlisted in 1862 at the age of 15.
He was in Co. I, of the 14th Wisconsin, Infantry from Fon du Lac, Wisconsin.
