Description
The regiment was organized in the spring of 1861, and its ranks were filled with a mix of farmers, laborers, and businessmen. The regiment’s first commander was Colonel Edward Willis, a West Point graduate who had served in the Mexican-American War. Under Willis’s leadership, the 35th Georgia was assigned to the Army of Northern Virginia, and it saw its first combat at the Battle of First Manassas in July 1861.
The 35th Georgia fought in some of the most famous and bloody battles of the Civil War, including the Seven Days Battles, Second Manassas, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Chickamauga, and the Overland Campaign. The regiment’s casualties were heavy, and by the end of the war, only a fraction of its original members remained.
Despite the heavy losses, the 35th Georgia never wavered in its loyalty to the Confederate cause. The regiment’s soldiers fought bravely and with distinction, and they earned the respect of both their comrades and their enemies.
