John Pegram

Edit - Sorry, Pegram is not the correct answer. He didn't die at Gettysburg.

Welcome to the trivia game, anyway, blwhite70. Hope you'll come back and play again.

Colonel Burgwyn

Edit - Tuffiann, I'm sorry, but I have to mark this answer incorrect. You named the right person, but the question asked you to also name his regiment.

Welcome to the trivia game, anyway. Hope you'll come back and play again.

[AUG]

Colonel Henry K. Burgwyn of the 26th North Carolina

Sorry if I gave away the answer in my earlier post. You should have picked something else because I posted the story of the 26th NC and the 24th MI earlier and it describes his action in that article.

 

[Bonny Blue Flag]

Henry King Burgwyn, jr

--BBF

Edit - Haven't seen you on the trivia game in quite a while, BBF. Welcome back.

Unfortunately, like a number of other players, you neglected to identify Burgwyn's regiment.

Hope you'll come back and play again, anyway.
