Total 357 64 12 *Including the Lawrence Scientific School at Harvard The above total of Harvard alumni serving in the Confederate military included five major generals and eight brigadier generals, three of which were killed in battle. In addition, there were 29 Harvard alumni serving as civilians in the Confederate government. It surprises some that 28% of all Harvard alumni who served in the Civil War fought for the South but Harvard Confederates represent 44% of the sons of Harvard killed in action during this conflict. As result among Harvard alumni, Confederate military losses were 21% compared with a 10% casualty rate for the Union Army. Confederate soldiers were forced by the statutes of the Congress of the Southern Confederacy to serve throughout the war, regardless of the terms of their enlistment or commission, which was not the case on the Union side. Thus, Confederate soldiers generally participated in more engagements than the Union troops. Thus, Confederate soldiers generally participated in more engagements than the Union troops. Among the Confederate casualties from Harvard were: • An officer who was killed in the same battle where his brother fought as an officer in the Union Army • A brigadier general who was the brother in law of Abraham Lincoln. As expected, most of the Harvard alumni killed in the service of the Confederacy were born and raised in the Southern states.
