John Kilgore served in the Nickelsville Spartan Band Roster, Company E 48th Virginia Regiment CSA.2 He was born on Jul 23, 1840.3,2 He died on Feb 16, 1862 S.P. McConnell's letter to Charles Kilgore on the death of his son, John D. Kilgore
As the year 1862 opened, the 48th Virginia was assigned to Colonel William Gilham's brigade of Brigadier General William Loring's Army of the Northwest. General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson had been given command of the Valley District in November. Jackson decided to combine his Army of the Valley District with Loring's small army and march on the little town of Romney which was the strategic key to the upper Shenandoah Valley.
Jackson's forces began their winter campaign on a pleasant New Year's Day, 1862, "springtime in its mildness". Conditions quickly deteriorated. A month of rain, sleet, bad roads, hunger, sickness, and misery followed.
During one march, Loring was so infuriated by an order from Jackson to keep his men moving that he announced, "By God, Sir, this is the damnedest outrage ever perpetrated in the annals of history, keeping my men out here in the cold without food." Brigadier General Richard B. Garnett had his first of several run ins with Jackson when he ordered his famished troops fed after 30 hours of continuous marching. Jackson took exception, stating that there was, "not time for that." One officer wrote that, "Two battles would not have done as much injury as hard weather and exposure have effected."
The march of January 7-8 was one of the worst. The temperature dropped to 20 degrees below zero. The soldiers marched over a road of ice covered with six inches of snow. Men were constantly "hitting the road with a thud like that of a pile driver." Horses also fell constantly. An artilleryman remembered that "from one horse's knees there were icicles of blood which reached nearly to the ground." By the time the men arrived at their destination, "every soldier's clothing was a solid cake of ice," and there were "icicles two inches long hanging from the hair and whiskers of every man."
By the end of January, the 48th Virginia was posted in the cold and dreary town of Romney which stank from tons of rotting beef left by the Yankees. Many of the officers from Loring's command petitioned that they be moved back to Winchester. Jefferson Davis agreed, and they were ordered back. Jackson tendered his resignation for this "interference". Jackson was later placated and his resignation withdrawn.
Jackson sent Col. Gilham back to his classroom at VMI. Loring was removed to Georgia. Garnett would have a more critical run in with Jackson at Kernstown. Many of the men openly jeered Jackson.
And a young farm boy, far from his Scott Couny home, died from the effects of the march in a military hospital in Winchester on February 16, 1862.
