(Fun Facts, Two letters were written of Pvt.Matthew L. Chandler by his company captain that said he was an Honorable and Brave man, and he had none of that "OLD SOLDIER" in him (I have no idea what that means, he also married his wife while on furlough during the civil war in Jan-Feb, 1863)

My 1st Cousin 5x Removed and Cousin of Great Great Great Grandmother(stated above), Brother of Matthew. L. Chandler

Corporal John Chandler Enlisted age 20 July 7, 1861 in Clarksville, Mecklenburg, Virginia . 56th Virginia Infantry Regiment Company A. Records have him present up to December 1861.
and one record states he was captured at Saylors Creek in 1865 but demoted and that he survived the war.

and my last relative and my only UNION One that I have found (so far)

My Great Great Great Great Grandfather

First Sergeant Alva Kendall Fenton. Age 22 Enlisted Late 1864 at Scioto County Ohio, 173rd Ohio Infantry other than that i believe this regiment was a reserve unit and saw no action, other than guarding prisoners towards end of war. Don't know much about his service


Anyways, Im sorry for the long post, but I though this would be interesting to show everyone who my civil war relatives were, but i need some help with a few things and I was wondering if anyone on this forum would help.

I've tried but can't find any information on Corporal Matthew Chandler, it says he survived but there are no records of him after the war. And it has no records of him at all but this one saying he was captured at Saylors Creek in 1865, anyways if anyone could find what happened to him for me, or tell me where i could find more information on him that would be much appreciated (I've already checked the 56th Virginia book at my library and looked on fold 3)

Lastly, I don't know what "None of that old soldier in him" means when referring to Private Matthew L. Chandler's service.

And Finally, I cant seem to find when my GGG uncle Joe Martin returned to duty with the 34th North Carolina, is it possible he could of seen more battles?

Well, sorry for the long post, feel free to comment and answer, any information is welcome, and if you don't know any answers but want to say something about what I've found. I would be very happy to hear it. Thanks Everyone!

And I am currently looking for more soldiers!

Great research ! Thanks for sharing ! I would think Mathew's Captain was saying he was " brave to a fault." Was probably always out front and leading the way during every charge and yelling " come on boys ! " Not " overly cautious " as a old soldier might be who wanted to remain a " old soldier ! "
 
You've done some great research work and are asking some good additional questions.

Regarding the one captured at Sayler's Creek, you mean Corporal John Chandler, right? He might be one of those unfortunate cases in which there are no personnel records available for the unit in general or for him in particular. You can make an assumption that he was with the unit from enlistment up to his capture, but you won't know for certain if he was detached or sick at hospital during portions of that period. At least you can trace the history of that unit and get an idea what John Chandler might have been doing with the unit if present. Regarding his history after the war, I have several relatives who did a lot of moving after the war, bouncing from state to state looking for some place to settle. John might have been one of those who (whom? whatever...) the war made restless.

I think East TN Roots nailed it on Matthew L. Chandler.

Thank you, must of been one really serious wound, if he needed 7 months to recover (In his pension, a friend reported a bullet "crippled" his arm.)
I also noticed this was "estimate" So does this mean they are not exactly sure? In the book at my library it said, "Returned to duty prior to March 1863" and the Fold 3 records have him present at January, and the Nov-Dec. is not recorded, though I know that Fold 3 records are not the most accurate. Again Thanks!

I think East TN Roots nailed it on Matthew L. Chandler.

I forgot to put that the "POW" record does not have him listed as John but as "Jack Chandler" and he was a private, and I also forgot to put that Matthew and John had a younger brother named JAMES Chandler, and he was drafted into the 56th Virginia Infantry Regiment Company A, he fought at Cold Harbor and was present at the last know record, you think this could be actually him and they confused the names? A mystery really......

I also noticed this was "estimate" So does this mean they are not exactly sure? I would guess it came from the people transcribing the records. They probably didn't have the time ( or unable to take the time ) to be really accurate.
 
Do you have a birth date for John? and where was he born? Any more info is great
John Chandler was born 1841 or 1842 in Granville county, North Carolina later lived in Clarksville, Mecklenburg ,Virginia in 1850 and 1860, stated in census
 
That is not him unfortunately, that John Chandler was from Augusta County, which is in the Shenandoah Valley, the John Chandler im related too, is from Mecklenburg (which is in south central Virginia near Danville) and he enlisted at Clarksville, Virginia on July 7, 1861 as a Corporal. There is a civil war records of him on ancestry.

What does this mean?
 
What does this mean?

In Jan. 1862 the 56th was sent west to Wharton's Brigade, Floyd's Division, Army of Kentucky. Albert Sidney Johnston, ( A.S. Johnston ) the commander. They took part in the fight at Fort Donelson. There they suffered 8 killed 15 wounded, 3 missing, 11o captured ( I assume prior to the surrender. ) After being exchanged they returned to Virginia and remained there for the duration.

The 56th Virginia Infantry Regiment fought at theses battles
-Fort Donelson 26 causalities, 110 captured (Most of Regiment escaped on boat with General Floyd)
Later they would be assigned to Pickett's Brigade "The Gamecocks"
-Gaines Mill 80 casualties
-Frayser's Farm 22 casualties
-Second Manassas 13 casualties
-Boonsboro(South Mountain)-40 casualties
-Sharpsburg(Antietam)-8 causalties
-Gettysburg I don't know the exact casualties, but it was very high something around 60 percent of about 400 men, Pickett's Charge was a bloodbath
-Cold Harbor Unknown Number of Casualties
later they served through Petersburg and Appomattox Campaigns
The Source I am getting this information from is the "56th Virginia Regimental Book" and the casualties are estimates of what I thought I saw when reading the book at the library last week, (I don't have that book on hand).

Flag of 56th Virginia (I found it on www.civilwar.org on its page on the battle of Gaines Mill, where the regiment performed well. (FLAG IS ON RIGHT, it wouldnt let me post one flag for some reason)
