The Fighting Men of Genesee County, Michigan: Remembering the Sacrifices of Civil War Soldiers from the Flint Area

Genesee County, Michigan, contributed over 2,500 Union soldiers in the Civil War. Many of these men did not survive the war, and were unable to tell their stories. Others, however, wrote extensively about their experiences. Unfortunately, their stories are not well-known, even within their own communities. Therefore, it is crucial to examine the lives of these soldiers, their experiences during the Civil War, and their contributions to the Flint area. By addressing these issues, this publication commemorates the many sons and husbands who sacrificed their lives to save a nation in turmoil.
