Bachman, Nathan DeWitt Memorandum relating to Bachman‟s Civil War service. Typescript, 1908. 6 pages
Bachman, Nathan DeWitt United States – History – Civil War, 1861-1865
Nathan DeWitt Bachman enlisted in Bristol and served in the 3rd and 63rd Tennessee regiments. Bachman saw action at First Manassas, Chickamauga, Fort Sanders at Knoxville, Walthall Station, Drewry‟s Bluff, and Petersburg where he was slightly wounded. He also engaged in numerous skirmishes and guarded against bushwackers in the mountains of East Tennessee. He surrendered with Lee at Appomattox. He attained the rank of adjutant of the 63rd regiment. “Confederate soldiers were not „Rebels,‟” Bachman concluded. “They fought and contended for rights and privileges guaranteed by the Constitution, and the mere fact of our defeat should not be taken as evidence that our Cause was not just.”
