• Civil War Archive of 3 Members of 25th
  Civil War Archive of 3 Members of 25th Mass. Vols. Lot of 7 letters. Brothers Chester Greenwood WIA & George Greenwood DOW and George H. Barnes DOW. Five are soldiers' letters two are other family members (Sarah and William Earle); all letters to Oella Greenwood Barnes Worcester MA. The war-date letters are from George Greenwood Plymouth NC April 24 1863: He writes ...the rebels came down with so much force that a boat was sent for us and we destroyed all the property which we could not bring away and left the place. We went to Elizabeth City and Roanoke Island and while there had orders to come here and join the regiment... You must know that the sad news of Hobart's death was a great affliction and very hard to bear being so very far away from home and friends but as you say it may be that this great trial is for the best let us trust that it is. I am in good health as well as the rest of the Hubbarston [MA] boys.... In your letter you mentioned that you wanted I should make an agreement with the rest of the boys so that in case of the death of any of us so that the body should be sent home. I have not said anything to them about it yet for it is a subject they dislike to say much about but should there be need of it everything would be done which is possible under the circumstances. George Greenwood Rothman's Point Sept. 15th 1863: Most of the letter concerns a group that went home. He apparently was ill for a while but his condition seems to have been exaggerated to his sister: I hope you will not worry about my being sick till I write myself or get Geo B. to do so for me for you can not always tell by what others write and say. George H. [Barnes] Camp West near Williamsburg Va. Feb. 28th 1864: Geo [Greenwood] sits at my elbow and has just informed me of the lamentable fact that you are 22 years old today but it is better than it would have been if your birth day was tomorrow for then you would be only 8 years old and then how would you look with those great children running after you and calling you Mother.... At least they still have a sense of humor! He goes on to report that they advanced to within 12 or 15 miles of Richmond but have packed to to go back to Newport News. Whether we walk all of the way down there or ride on the boat from Yorktown I neither know nor care much for I have got so that I can stand almost anything. There is a callous on my back where the knapsack lays. He goes on to tell her that they were just paid and he received a check instead of cash: if we can't get exchanged down at Newport News or where ever we are we shall be obliged to send it home therefore we shall not spend so much as we otherwise would.... George Greenwood Gettys Station Virginnie April 3rd 1864: Most of the first half is about some pictures that were sent to them from home. ...Chester did not come with the rest of the boys and has not yet. I should think they would send them along soon. I wish he could have been persuaded to stay at home and help father for he will need him very much but he will have to make the best of the way he has chosen. I tried all I could to have him stay at home. I hope father will get along well till I get home which I hope will be in the fall...As for Geo. B. and I we are fat and well... Unfortunately things did not work out well. The fifth letter is from Chester Greenwood Cross Hill Va. May 25th 1864: We have had a hard time of it since we landed at Bermuda Hundred there has been hardly a day but there has been fighting and our Regt. has been under fire ten or twelve days since we came here.... We had a fight the next day after we landed at Valley Farm about three miles above here. George had the sole of his boot shot off in that fight. George was wounded at the Battle of Petersburg with three balls one passing through his breast one hit him in the groin one broke his right arm but for all that he lived till the next day and did not suffer at all. George Barnes was on picket at the time that fight came off...Role Pond was killed he was one of the best men in the company... [Roland Pond KIA 5/16/64 Drury's Bluff VA] George Barnes was lucky on this day but less than a month later (6/3/64) he too was killed at Cold Harbor. Chester was wounded the same day but did survive to make it home. Even though he enlisted late in the war he was discharged for disability in July presumably a result of wounds received at Cold Harbor rather than going West with many other 3-year enlistees. The other two letters are from noncombatant family members and predominantly discuss health business etc. No real war news. The ''Georges'' (Greenwood and Barnes) enlisted in August 1862 from Hubbardston MA and ''little brother'' Chester (Greenwood) in Feb. 1864 (presumably when he turned 18). After a veteran furlough in early 1864 the unit was reunited at the end of March near Portsmouth VA. Over the month of May into early June the unit lost 460 officers and men 112 mortally (killed or mortally wounded) at Port Walthall Junction Arrowfield Church Drury's Bluff Cold Harbor. Then the remainder proceeded to Petersburg until late August when it was withdrawn to Bermuda Hundred then Newbern NC where those who had not veteranized were sent home the rest settled in for the winter. The following spring it was in action at Wise's Forks then joined Sherman near Goldsboro. The war was nearly over for these battle-tested troops one of the few that lost nearly as many men in action as they lost to disease (163 KIA/ 169 DOD). They were ordered home in June and mustered out at Readville in mid-July. Condition: Variable with a few minor separations at folds. Overall very good.
