Bachman, Nathan DeWitt

United States – History – Civil War, 1861-1865

Nathan DeWitt Bachman enlisted in Bristol and served in the

3rd and 63

rd Tennessee regiments. Bachman saw action at First

Manassas, Chickamauga, Fort Sanders at Knoxville, Walthall

Station, Drewry‟s Bluff, and Petersburg where he was slightly

wounded. He also engaged in numerous skirmishes and guarded

against bushwackers in the mountains of East Tennessee. He

surrendered with Lee at Appomattox. He attained the rank of

adjutant of the 63rd regiment. “Confederate soldiers were not

„Rebels,‟” Bachman concluded. “They fought and contended for

rights and privileges guaranteed by the Constitution, and the

mere fact of our defeat should not be taken as evidence that our

Cause was not just.”
