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."

Colonel Ethelbert Ludlow Dudley-- Part 1: Died of Typhoid Fever
I have been writing about a Col. William Dudley in my Not So Forgotten Blog: War of 1812 blog. His command was involved in what is now called Dudley's Massacre when it came to the relief of Fort Meigs in Ohio in 1813. I came across some other Dudleys in my research.
Theses are some Civil War Dudleys. I am not sure if any are related to him.
COLONEL ETHERBERT LUDLOW DUDLEY.
