15th Georgia Volunteer Infantry
The 15th Georgia Infantry Regiment was an infantry regiment in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War. It participated in most of the key battles of Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia.
==Service==
The 15th Georgia was organized in the spring of 1861, in Athens, Georgia. It contained troops from eight counties in Northeastern Georgia: Hancock, Stephens, Elbert, Lamar, Warren, Wilkes, Taliaferro, and Oglethorpe counties.〔https://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/15th_Regiment,_Georgia_Infantry_(Confederate)〕 It was initially attached to General Robert Toombs' Brigade in David Jones' Division of the Army of Northern Virginia. Under Toombs, the 15th Georgia fought in the Seven Days Battles, the Battle of Thoroughfare Gap, the Second Battle of Bull Run, and the Battle of Antietam. After this point, the brigade was under the command of Colonel (later General) Henry Benning. The 15th Georgia served with the Army of Northern Virginia for the remainder of the war, except when it detached with General Longstreet during the Tidewater Campaign, the Battle of Chickamauga, and the Knoxville Campaign of 1863. The 15th Georgia was present at the Battle of Appomattox Courthouse and the subsequent surrender. Twenty officers and 226 men of the 15th Georgia Infantry were present at the surrender.〔http://www.nps.gov/civilwar/search-battle-units-detail.htm?battleUnitCode=CGA0015RI〕
