that is what had him heading toward farmville. as he is heading along, he comes to an area past deaton bill. it is a 23 mile march. as he is moving along the army is on a single roadway going across the rolling land of the he'd mocked. -- piedmont. union infantry will move upon the wagon train and his battle lines and there will be hit and run tactics by cavalry. that is what brings us to what happens on the evening of april 6 on sailor's creek. previous to fighting at sailor's creek, there was another small engagement just between sailor's creek and farmville. the engagement was for highbridge. union troops stationed in burke bill -- burkville realized they were living upon farmville at this time so they sent a group of union infantry, 900 men along with three companies of the fourth massachusetts calgary. the goal is to ride in front in getting front of the confederate army, move in front of highbridge, about four miles from here industry is -- destroy it. highbridge was 125 feet high. it was 21 for peers -- brick piers, most of

you can go to the farmville website and see what they are going to have going on related to high bridge. i think that is pretty much it in terms of general information. i want to go ahead and introduce the first speaker for the morning. bert dunkerly is a historian, an award-winning author. he has a degree in history from st. vincent college and a masters in preservation. he has worked at nine different historic sites most recently am currently at the richmond national battlefield park. he has written two books and i think we have at least one of them in the for-sale bookstore his most recent one, "the most famous bridal" -- -- struggle" -- i grabbed the wrong one. what is the most recent one? "to the bitter end," which deals with the surrenders in north carolina. his talk today will be on the forgotten surrenders. since i did my dissertation on florida, i hope you might mention florida once or twice because it was one of the florida regiments that was one of the last surrendered groups, week in june. -- late in june. bert dunkerly.

lee visited her home in farmville. but she had 4 young boys. he said they had their best chance to get out of here and go to brazil. the local minister told him to leave parishioners alone. the reality is that southern presbyterian denomination opened up a foreign mission field in brazil but it was really to be a chaplaincy outreach to our kind of people there. professor clabough: thank you. >> i had a quick question. do you think the majority of the people left for political reasons? not wanting to live under yankee rule or was it economics, perhaps hoping to establish a slave institution in brazil or elsewhere? do you have information about the states that they were more likely to have left? deep south like alabama or mississippi or upper south? i would think it would be deep south but i am guessing. professor clabough: let me start with your last question. yes, it was predominantly deep south states where the brazilian government advertised. the ports lended themselves to transportation to brazil as well. there were some virginians and they

. >> welcome to american history tv live from farmville virginia. >> i am one of your hosts. i am a park historian. it's great to see everyone it. we had quite a night last night some real terrific programs. i wish you could've been here. it was some real super stuff. tracy did a great job telling us about the fall of petersburg and the battle of five forks. we have five speakers on tap this morning. let's start off with chris talking about the battle of sailor's creek. i will talk about appomattox courthouse. this afternoon, we have elizabeth talking about the legacies of appomattox and mark bradley talking about what was going on in north carolina in 1865. as you know, this is a free civil war seminar. we are supported by the eastern national bookstore. we have our authors and speakers books at here. we have william thompson's books. could you stand up and raise your hand? he has several books on the civil war. specifically focusing on the events here in this area on april 7. i asked our speakers to gather at the table, even if they are speaking later in the day to the left

but was at the corner of main street and 2nd street here in farmville. and coincidentally, last night i had the pleasure of staying at the longwood red -- bed and breakfast on high street. in one of those rooms is a desk along with other furniture. that furniture came from general grant's orders in the prince edward hotel. and on one of those pieces, he wrote out a letter to general lee. it would turn out to be the first letter asking for the surrender of the army of northern virginia. it was written about 5:00 that afternoon, and was put in the hands of seth williams. who was the inspector general of the federal armies. because the bridges have been burned, he had to take a very particular route over the wagon bridge underneath highbridge. and he did not reach general lee until about 9:00 that evening. he had some difficulty getting his message through the lines but eventually was able to do so. general lee received the message , read it, didn't say anything. he then handed it to james oxford -- long street -- longs treet. he had one reply, not yet. he

go out there when it was supposed to be open and there was a note on the door that said gone to farmville for supplies. this went on for a couple of visits and we did catch up with chris. he did not know that we had made these earlier visits. we mentioned the signed that was on the door and he said the supplies were my girlfriend at longwood college. [applause] talking to the people around there, the state park gentlemen will tell you that the battle was here at the hillsman farm. a mile down the road at the intersection marshall's crossroads, the farmer that owned that property would tell us they don't know what they were talking about. look at all of these cannonballs and bullets that i find here. someone told us, you need to go two miles down the creek. see the gentleman owns the farm. we drive over to the locket farm. the gentleman there, his mother was in the house at the time of the battle. he was in world war i, so that tells you how old he was. we talked to him. he said they don't know what they are talking about. the battle was on my property. there is a marker out front. look at

he dies two weeks later here in farmville at the hospital. a bullet finds the chest of james haran, of the 189th new york. joshua chamberlain is leading the skirmishers of the fifth core. he has with him not the 20th maine, but his new brigade after his wounding at petersburg. the 185th new york, hundred 90 if pennsylvanian. he is taking casualties. this guy here. look at that. artillery shell takes off his foot. and some toes on his other foot. some of that artillery fire is coming from the yard of george pierce, at the eastern edge of the village. men in those batteries are members of the richmond howitzers and salem flying artillery. here is an illustration of the firing of the last gun. william brown is with the salem flying artillery. one of those shells finds this fellow here. hiram clarke. kimberlin claims him to be the last casualty. don't know that that is necessarily true. but it is a rather tragic story. hiram clarke is from marathon, new york. he is sick with jaundice in the hospital. he finds out his regimen is moving out i campa

york or minnesota, or even lawyers from new york city, the union soldiers who marched and -- into farmville on april of 1865. when they marched, did they march for freedom? did they march to end slavery? let me put the question differently. that might provoke some shaking or nodding subheads. did the confederates who rushed onto the field at gainesville or -- gains milk, or held the stonewall inn fredericksburg, did they fight to preserve slavery? to perpetuate it? i don't see anybody offering up any opinion in terms of shaking or nodding their heads. if you have worked at a civil war site for any amount of time, ron has heard it, patrick has heard it, you will hear something like this. my great great grandfather is from the shenandoah valley, or, pick your place. he did not own any slaves there he sure as hell did not fight to preserve slavery. he fought to defend his home the way of life, and the community and his city. the civil war was not about slavery. you are wrong to tell people that it was. have you had that happen? we have all had that happen. in fact, we've had it happened a -- w
