William R. Carr 12th MassachusettsWilliam R. Carr 12th Massachusetts Vols. KIA Gettysburg Civil War Archive 9 letters from Sgt. William R. Carr 1861-1863. Plus 6 related family letters. The war letters start with Carr??Ts May 17 1861 admission to his father that yes he had run off and joined the militia. You said that Uncle Daniel let the cat out of the bag about my Enlisting in my Country??Ts Service; myself and eight others enlisted... I enlisted for three months at first but if they want us longer while we shall go... we are styled Company D 7th Reg. Mass Volunteer Militia H.J. Herve Captain. Liman Dike is Colonel of the Regiment. Lyman Dike prominent Stoneham resident had been colonel of the 7th Massachusetts Militia since 1858. In 1861 he was detailed by Governor Andrew to command a camp of instruction at Lynnfield to prepare the state militias for Federal service. The 7th was incorporated into the 14th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry during this time. Note that this letter contradicts Carr??Ts service record which gives his enlistment date as June 26 1861 into the 12th Massachusetts Infantry. Carr??Ts letter of August 11 from Pleasant Valley Maryland explains what happened: I left that Regt about five weeks ago and joyend the 12th Massachusetts Regt. Commanded by Col. Fletcher Webster son of Daniel Webster. the reason why I left the 14th was because the Governor took our Captain away from us and we would not stand for it and so we broke up the Company and went into the Webster Regt... We have got a very fine Regt. I suppose you have seen Accounts in the Newspapers about the Webster Regt. Carr gives a detailed account of his first month in the 12th and relates how his company had to make a reconnaissance of the overgrown mountain at Maryland Heights where Rebel troops had built a fort: Three weeks ago the Secessionists had possession of the Mountain. there is About fifty Logg Huts which they Built besides a large Stockade built of loggs. We did not find anything worth of note. The November 3 1861 letter from Camp near Seneca Hills [Maryland] gives a harrowing story of a storm so powerful that flash flooding extinguished all fires and soldiers had to stand outside in the torrential downpour and hold on to the tents to keep them from being blown away! Carr had an ever-positive attitude and a gift for describing camp life in entertaining detail throughout these letters. In this one he explains to his brother how the soldiers dug a stone-lined fire pit with underground flue and sod chimney to warm the large tents. December found Carr in Camp Hicks near Frederick. Maryland. On the 22nd he writes his father: I have been very busy of late... We are building logg houses to live in. we expect to quarter here this winter... We are encamped about three miles from the City of Frederick one of the Oldest Cities in the Country; some of the soldiers are quartered in barracks built by the English. On December 30 1861 Carr wrote his sister from Camp Hicks Maryland proudly giving a detailed description of the construction of the 16 x 14 ft. log cabin he and 14 others would be spending the winter in and how Army life had helped some of their friends straighten up their lives: Some people have an idea that the Army is a great place for all kinds of vices. It is not so at all events it is not so in this Regt. for I know of fellows in this Regt. who were regular Drunkards at home that are as steady as you could wish out here. I think it is a good school for such! The January 15 1862 letter is another vivid portrait of camp life. We shall have a boiled dish for dinner to day composed of Corned Beef Poark Potatoes Cabbage and Turnips.... We are very fortunate in our mess in having a good cook.... We have boards we put up for a table at meal times and Chairs are an unknown luxury for a Soldier. On January 21st Carr wrote his father that the regiment had been put on alert: Orders came into camp last night for us to be ready to march at an hour??Ts notice with two days rations. At 9 oclock in the evening orders came to have our Blankets ready to march at a moment??Ts notice without knapsacks... Reports said that we should go to Hancock or Winchester... I understand that the Rebels are collecting there in large numbers.? The next morning he adds: ?We have not had any further orders about Marching... I should hate to march now the roads are so bad. There is no snow here but a great abundance of mud! Carr wrote his sister on January 28 1862 explaining that he couldn't come home to visit because all furloughs had been cut off. So many men had left on leave that no one else was being allowed to go. This could not have happened at a worse time for one of the men in ?I? Company: he received a letter last night from a Doctor in North Bridgewater stating that his wife was very sick. they did not expect her to live but a short time and told him that if he wanted to see her alive that he must come home immediately and requesting him to show it (the letter) to the Officers he went to the Col. and handed him the letter and asked him for a furlough the Col told him at first that there was no possible chance for him to get home then after thinking it over a short time he told him that he would do the best he could for him he gave him a pass to go to Washington and see Gen McClellan his pass has got to be signed Genl Abercrombie Genl Banks and Gen McClellan. I don??Tt know whether he will get it or not but I hope he will for he is a good steady fellow and it would be to bad if they did not let him go. In September 1862 the regiment had been nearly destroyed at Antietam fighting the Louisiana Tigers in vicious combat in the infamous Cornfield and capturing the colors of the 1st Texas Infantry. The 12th Massachusetts suffered 67 percent casualties in that battle the highest of any unit. Only 32 men of an original 334 answered muster that evening. The last letter of this archive is dated May 30 1863 and covers the actions of the 12th Massachusetts at Chancellorsville. Carr writes his sister explaining why he hasn??Tt written in so long: Dear Sister Please excuse me for not writing to you before this late day. the reason that I have not written before is that I have had a very lame hand... I sprained my hand the day that we recrossed the River after the Chancellorsville fight. We left our position about three oclock in the morning [May 6] and marched towards the River. It was dark and rainy so dark and so many troops on the march we could hardly pick our way along. We came to a fence and we commenced to scramble over it. there were some eight or ten on the length that I was on. Our weight proved to much for the fence and down we came all in a pile. I threw out my hand to save myself and caught hold of a rail and at the same time that my hand struck the rail a comrade??Ts gun struck my hand and a pretty hard blow too... Our Regt was not in any regular engagement across the River but acted as skirmishers. We were out one day & one night. As skirmishers we had two men wounded and some eight to ten taken prisoners. There was only 75 of us in the Regt all told and we took one hundred and two prisoners. A pretty good day??Ts work don??Tt you think so? A month after this letter the 12th Massachusetts was one of the first Union infantry regiments to reach Gettysburg on July 1st as the Confederate Army closed in. With the rest of Baxter??Ts Brigade they surprised Iverson??Ts brigade of Confederates at Oak Ridge annihilating them. Facing the brunt of Ewell??Ts Second Corps Baxter??Ts Brigade were forced back to Cemetery Hill in vicious fighting. Sergeant William Carr was severely wounded in the left leg during this action. His leg was amputated and he died of his wounds July 14 in Gettysburg. He is buried in Gettysburg National Cemetery in gravesite MA-C-13.
