Alfred Mallory Edgar was born on July 10, 1837, in Greenbrier County, West] Virginia, the son of Archer Edgar and Nancy Howe Pearis. Their mill, known as Edgar's Mill, is now the site of present day Ronceverte, West Virginia. At the outbreak of the Civil War, the family owned ten slaves, five males and five females, ranging in age from 7 to 39 years old.

On May 9, 1861, at 23 years of age, Alfred volunteered for service in the Greenbrier Rifles, which would become part of the 27th Virginia Infantry, a regiment in the famous Stonewall Brigade of the Confederate Army. The Stonewall Brigade received their name from their legendary commander, General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson. The 27th Virginia fought in many of the major campaigns and battles of the Civil War, including First Manassas, the 1862 Shenandoah Valley Campaign, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and the 1864 battles of the Wilderness. Edgar was wounded in the left shoulder at the Bloody Angle at Spotsylvania Court House, Virginia, on May 12, 1864, and was made a prisoner of war. He was sent to Fort Delaware until he became part of a group that would be known as The Immortal 600. This group of Confederate officers were taken to Morris Island, South Carolina, at the entrance to Charleston Harbor, and exposed to enemy artillery fire for 45 days in an attempt to silence the Confederate gunners manning Fort Sumter. This was in retaliation for the Confederate Army imprisoning 50 Union Army officers and using them as human shields against federal artillery in the city of Charleston, in an attempt to stop Union artillery from firing upon the city. Edgar was finally released on June 16, 1865.

In June, 1875, he married Lydia McNeel, daughter of Col. Paul McNeel, whom he had met while a student at the old Lewisburg Academy. They settled at Hillsboro in Pocahontas County, West Virginia, where he was a farmer and stockman. Captain Edgar died in Pocahontas County on October 8, 1913, and is buried in the McNeel Cemetery.

Later in life, he wrote his reminiscences of the war. This work presents those memoirs with only minimal editing. It is the compelling personal account of a young Confederate soldier describing his dramatic experience in the Civil War and its impact on his life, family, and community.

Runs small, great quality
Size: X-Small, Color: White 2-pack
Quality is great but the sizing isn’t what I though. My 3.5 year old (he’s typical size, skinny, not short but not the tallest kid) is in between a 3 and 4T. I bought the XXS and XS. Both were too small! The shirt also seemed like maybe a girls cut, the sleeves were short and it seemed to have a bit of a curve on the sides like some girls clothes do. I still gave 5 stars because they are really nice shirts for the money.

Favorite White Tee
Size: Medium, Color: White 4-pack
Love these simple white tees. They don't shrink and are adequately sized. They wash well. My 6 year old loves them too. Light and comfortable. They can be dressed with jeans, shorts, work as an undershirt or pajama shirt. Favorite white tees for any outfit. Excellent priced. Great shirts overall.

Great for pajama shirts
Size: Large, Color: White 4-pack
Shirts are true to size. The material is soft and not too thin. We used these as pajama shirts for my preteen and he got a lot of use out of them. Pro - cheap and well made Con - they did shrink slightly after a few washes so the shirt is shorter. Didn’t impact our use though
