William Dorsey Pender
William Dorsey Pender (February 6, 1834 – July 18, 1863) was one of the youngest generals in the Confederacy in the American Civil War. Promoted to brigadier on the battlefield at Seven Pines by Confederate President Jefferson Davis in person, he fought in the Seven Days Battles and at Second Manassas, Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville, being wounded in each of these engagements. Lee rated him as one of the most promising of his commanders,〔Tagg, p. 326, quoting Robert E. Lee.〕 promoting him to major general at twenty-nine. Pender was mortally wounded on the second day of Gettysburg.
