5 Civil War ID List Answer Key RM 48 John Bell Hood Hood was the first commander of the Texas Brigade, or Hood s Brigade. He was sent to Virginia to fight in The troops were distinguished in battle, leading to Hood s promotion to major general. Hood s Brigade played an active role during the Battle of Gettysburg in July Hood was wounded in his left arm, which he could no longer use. The brigade also fought in the Battle of Chickamauga. Hood lost his right leg during that battle. He had to be strapped to his saddle in order to ride, which he did during the battle to keep Union General Sherman from invading Georgia. Francis Lubbock Lubbock was the first governor of Texas as a Confederate government under Confederate President Jefferson Davis. He joined the Democratic Party during the Nullification Crisis of 1832 and was active in the state party in the 1850s. He served as lieutenant governor for one term. After serving as governor, he served in the army with Major General Magruder. John Magruder Magruder served as a Confederate major general during the Civil War and commander of Texas troops. He successfully led his troops during the Battle of Galveston on January 1, 1863, giving Texas temporary relief from the Union blockade. Galveston remained in Confederate control until the end of the war. John Reagan Reagan served as Postmaster General of the Confederacy and as Texas Democratic Party leader. He was involved in the Cherokee War and the battle that involved the killing of Chief Bowl. He served as a Senator from Texas from , when Texas seceded from the Union. At the end of the Civil War, he was captured by Union troops and imprisoned in Boston. He wrote a public letter from prison encouraging Texans to go along with the requirements by the U.S. government to re-enter the Union. That view was not popular in Texas at that time. After his imprisonment was over, he worked to restore political harmony and Democratic Party power in Texas as the state complied with the Reconstruction legislation. He was called by many the Old Roman, someone who had sacrificed for the good of his fellow Texans. Thomas Green Green served as a Texas Confederate general during the Civil War. He led troops into New Mexico, defeating Union soldiers at Valverde but losing at the Battle of Glorieta. He participated in the Battle of Galveston in January He led troops to victories during the Red River Campaign. He died during this campaign in April Battle of Galveston The Union wanted to capture Galveston and use it as a base of operations during the Civil War. Galveston was an important port for importing and exporting cargo for the Confederate cause. The Union captured Galveston in October 1862 but lost it as a result of the Battle of Galveston in January Page 1 of 2
6 Battle of Sabine Pass Union troops tried to invade the Confederacy through the Sabine Pass, a narrow channel near the border of Texas and Louisiana. Confederate troops under Texan Dick Dowling engaged the Union ships. Two of the Union ships were sunk, and no other ships attempted to sail into the channel. RM 48 continued Battle of Palmito Ranch This skirmish is considered to be the last land battle of the Civil War. It took place in South Texas near Brownsville, where the Confederacy had relocated some import and export activity as a result of the Union blockades. At the time, the Union controlled the port at Brownsville. The battle took place on May 13, 1865, after the surrender at Appomattox Court House, Virginia, by the Army of the Northern Potomac to the Union. However, these troops had not yet received the news. The Confederates won the battle. Page 2 of 2
