2013 Camden County Community Health Assessment Albemarle Regional Health Services and Albemarle Health 2013 Camden County Community Health Assessment May, 2013 Community Health Assessment funding provided by: Albemarle Regional Health Services Albemarle Health The Outer Banks Hospital Vidant Bertie Hospital Vidant Chowan Hospital ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The Community Health Assessment (CHA) process requires much work and dedication from those who are committed to identifying and solving health problems within our communities to improve the quality of life for our residents. The first phase of this process is forming a CHA Leadership Team. It is essential that the CHA Team involve people who have significant influence in the county, as well as the people who are most affected by health problems. People from throughout the county must be mobilized during this process, therefore a broad representation of county residents, agencies, and organizations were invited to be a part of this team.

Neely, Jr. McCabe-Greer Professor in the American Civil War Era Matthew J. Restall Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of Colonial Latin American History, Anthropology, and Women‘s Studies Carla J. Mulford Associate Professor of English *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT During the four years of the American Civil War, the twenty-three states that comprised the Union initiated one of the most unprecedented social transformations in U.S. History, mobilizing the Union Army. Strangely, scholars have yet to explore Civil War mobilization in a comprehensive way. Mobilization was a multi-tiered process whereby local communities organized, officered, armed, equipped, and fed soldiers before sending them to the front. It was a four-year progression that required the simultaneous participation of legislative action, military administration, benevolent voluntarism, and industrial productivity to function properly. Perhaps more than any other area of the North, cities most dramatically felt the affects of this transition to war. Generally, scholars have given areas of the urban North low marks. Statistics refute pessimistic conclusions; northern cities appeared to provide a higher percentage than the North as a whole.

Since this is the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, however, I wish to take another tack. Has anyone checked the passenger list of that grand ship for veterans of the War and provided vignettes of their fates? There surely were late 60ish and older men aboard who survived the war only to deal with that cold water 100 years ago this month.

  • REST in PEACE SERGEANT GARLICK Christopher Montagna In
    REST IN PEACE SERGEANT GARLICK Christopher Montagna In the summer of 1861, my great-grand uncle Evelyn Garlick was 18 years old, living in Lanesboro, Massachusetts and working as a clerk with Morley and Hand. On August 19, 1861, Evelyn enlisted with the 21st Regiment of the Massachusetts Volunteers. The 21st Massachusetts was formed in the summer of 1861 at Worcester, Massachusetts. The regiment departed for Baltimore, Maryland on August 23, 1861, and was eventually assigned to the 2nd Brigade, Burnside’s Expeditionary Corps. Evelyn Garlick served as sergeant with Co. I of the 21st Massachusetts and saw his first military action during the Battle of Roanoke Island in February of 1862. The regiment was also engaged at the Battle of New Bern and the Battle of South Mills. Evelyn was part of a battle-tested regiment when the Second Battle of Bull Run was fought in August of 1862. On August 30,1862, the Confederate forces broke the Federal ranks, who fled to Centreville, VA. The 21st Massachusetts was assigned to cover the retreating Union troops as they made their way back toward Washington, DC. The next day, in a driving rain, Confederate forces under General Lee attacked the Union forces at Chantilly, VA. On September 1, 1862, the 21st Massachusetts Regiment was ordered to follow a regiment from New York State into dense woods. Due to the dark, rainy conditions, the 21st failed to realize the New York regiment had halted their advance. As a result, the unit passed over the New Yorkers. As the 21st entered a clearing they observed forces in front of them.

  • Timeline 1862 1
    CIVIL WAR TIMELINE 1862 1 January Letters and editorials are full of thoughts about what is to be done with slaves, should they win their freedom. Most seem to favor the idea of returning them to tropical climates elsewhere – Haiti or Liberia, for example. Jan. 1 The Memphis Appeal reports on the resignation of Gen. Gideon Pillow and describes his emotional good-bye to his troops. Pillow, who has resigned after a dispute with Gen. Leonidas Polk, will reconsider his resignation a few days later and will be reinstated by Jefferson Davis. “ TN “Every preparation is being made to fasten the yoke of bondage upon the beautiful & chivalrous Southern country, but our people are determined to be forever free & independent of the Northern fanatics & tho the war may be long & bloody we will never submit.” [William L.B. Lawrence Diary] Jan. 3 TN Confederate troops in Greenville, TN, hang two East Tennesseans who were caught burning the Lick Creek bridge . Jan. 5 TN Brig. Gen. Zollicoffer sends out a proclamation to the state of Kentucky explaining that his continuing presence in Kentucky is not to invade them but to protect them from incursions by abolitionists and other “Northern hordes.” Jan. 6 Arson in several Southern cities leaves enormous devastation behind: Charleston has $12,000,000 damage; Montgomery is “fired in six different places by slaves”; a million dollars of commissary stores in Nashville are destroyed; a fire in Norfolk flattens the Custom-house, the post office, and a number of other buildings; public buildings in Richmond, a powder-mill in New Orleans, and the entire town of Greenville, Alabama, are burned.
