Such A Foe As Livingston The Ca
mpaign of Confederate Major Thomas R. Livingston's First Missouri Cavalry Battalion of Southwest Missouri, by John C. Livingston Jr., Editor Richard Peterson, 2004. 8½x11", hardbound book, 160 pages, indexed. Livingston was with Brigadier General Stand Waite at the first battle of Cabin Creek. Additionally, one of Livingston’s units of command was the First Missouri Cavalry Battalion, First Indian Brigade, also known as the “Cherokee Spikes”. From back cover: This is the story of the daring swashbuckler, Major Tom Livingston, of Jasper County, Missouri. Holding a Confederate commission, he recruited brave men and formed the First Missouri Cavalry Battalion to challenge Union occupation of Missouri. It details the saga of Livingston, his men, and the plight of Missourians in the midst of a land torn by Civil War and guerrilla warfare. Livingston, well known and hunted by Union commanders early in the war, nearly had his rightful place in history lost as he met with the untimely death in a raid midway through the war. The book tells a story that has been waiting for many years to be told. A subject heretofore mostly unknown, it fills a serious gap in the history of the war in Missouri. About the Author: John C. Livingston Jr., the great-great- grandson of Tom Livingston, spent ten years compiling the biography. A graduate of the University of Colorado-Boulder, he lives and works in Colorado.

Missouri Confederate Cavalry RegimentsThe Civil war saw the enlistment of almost every bodied men from age 18 and sometimes younger, to the men in middle 50s. This data covers more than one unit. At the end of the war, some records were sent by Federal Forces to Washington, DC, others retained by Missouri or the individuals from the units they were serving with and in some instances, destroyed. To enable researchers to more easily identify individuals, the author has tried to reconstruct more complete Regiment and Company Rosters than can be found in just one document from a variety of sources: Enrollment Records, Compiled Service Records, Miscellaneous Records, Hospital Reports and the Register of confederate Soldiers, Sailors and Citizens who died in Northern Prisons and Hospitals (M918), Casualty Reports (M836), Final Statements (RG-929), the Official Record and Supplements of the Union & Confederate Armies along with some newspaper articles that help flesh out these records. Re-organization and consolidation were the order of the day in the Confederate Army from the time the Missouri Regiments joined the regular Confederate Service to the end of hostilities. In addition, due to personnel loss, etc.; many of the units were merged or transferred to other Trans-Mississippi Departments, where additional records may be located. Many Cavalry Units were enlisted at the commencement of hostilities and fought throughout the conflict, often enlisted at more than one point, so it was impossible to list each enlistment site - but usually their enrollment and discharge location were common.

Missouri Infantry RegimentsNumerous Missouri Infantry Regiments were organized following the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861. However, following the Battle of Wilson's Creek, most of these units were consolidated and became the Missouri Confederate Infantry Regiments.Unfortunately, many records were lost, destroyed or perhaps taken home by individuals as evident from gaps in the existing records. Some of the enclosed records (RG-133-907 & RG-908 series microfilm) were constructed from the Enrollment Records. Miscellaneous records include information from the Register of Confederate Soldiers and Sailors who died in Northern Prisons and Hospitals, the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies, along with some newspapers articles that help flesh out these records. Remember that re-organization and consolidation, along with transfers to other Trans Mississippi Commands were common. Many Infantry Units were enlisted at the commencement of hostilities and fought throughout the conflict and often enlisted at more than one point so it was impossible to list each enlistment site but usually their enrollment and discharge location were common but one must look at the muster card for each person for additional information.

Missouri VolunteersThe Civil War in Missouri saw the call up of all military age men at various times and their service is often found in more than one unit, but since there was no consolidated records by county or counties, it is often difficult to identify individuals when so many phonetic spellings as well as transcribing errors exist. Many of these men were later discharged, paid commutation taxes, moved to other counties or states, died or were transferred to other Regiments; however, when trying to identify individuals, this is an excellent source because phonetic and misspelled surnames can more easily be identified in this work. Although some of the original records were typed, most were hand scribed on Enrollment Cards and due to faded ink or the penmanship variations and transcribing errors, it makes it even more difficult to identify those that researchers are looking for. While compiling these volumes, it became clear to the author that some were misfiled with other regiments and cannot be located in their correct service regiments.

Also covered are some unassigned soldiers and any units that were composed of colored soldiers from Missouri in the Missouri State Archives. Several regiments were involved in battles and skirmishes like ones at Fort Blakely, Alabama and Mount Pleasant, Louisiana. Colored units suffered like other troops through various epidemics, impacting both Union and Confederates, as evident in the number of deaths reported. Although considered Missouri Units, most of the officers were assigned from other states, especially, Illinois, Kansas, Colorado, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, etc. These included white officers do not have (col.) noted in this work.

Missouri UNION RecordsThe Civil War saw the enlistment of almost every bodied men from age 18 and sometimes younger, to the men in middle 50s. The Enrolled Missouri Militia were raised in late summer and fall of 1861. All able-bodied men between the ages of 18-45 were required to enroll to fight rebel guerrillas operating in their local areas. These men served within the borders of Missouri, unlike the Volunteer Militia who served throughout the Trans-Mississippi Region. However, some men bought an annual exemption fee to be excluded from serving and many muster cards list people who deserted and left the county or enrolled in the Southern Cause. Many men only served a short period and received discharge for physical disabilities or deserted. They often re-enlisted in other units as well. Many times members were transferred to other State military units and the remarks on each muster card must be checked for additional clues once one locates a particular name. Many Calvary Units were enlisted at the commencement of hostilities and fought throughout the conflict and often enlisted at more than one point so it was impossible to list each enlistment site but usually their enrollment and discharge location were common but one must look at the muster card for each person for additional information.
