THE WASHINGTON GRAYS
  Company K  10th Regiment
  North Carolina State Troops
        Heavy Artillery
This page was last updated on: March 17, 2011
This battery of heavy artillery, called the "Washington Grays," was accepted in State service for twelve months on April 22, 1861 and assigned to the 7th Regiment N.C. State Troops as Company A on May 29, 1861 and ordered to Ocracoke.   On June 22, 1861 it was mustered into State service as Company K, 10th Regiment N.C. State Troops    (1st Regiment N.C. Artillery), and on August 20 it was transferred to the Confederate States service.   Originally known as "Sparrow's Company, " after its first Captain, it later became known as "Shaw's Company" when 1st Lieutenant William Shaw succeeded Captain Thomas Sparrow, who was promoted to Major on January 9, 1863.

On August 29, 1861 this battery was captured at Fort Hatteras and confined at Fort Warren, Boston Harbor, Massachusetts, until paroled and exchanged.   By the end of January 1862 the entire company had been exchanged and re-formed at Wilmington where it was detailed on garrison duty at Fort French.   It remained at Fort French through June 1863 when it was transferred to Fort Lee, near the same city.   It remained on garrison duty at Fort Lee until May 8 - 9, 1864.   On May 8 a detachment was sent to Weldon under Lieutenant John M. Blount.   The rest of the battery was transferred to Smithville on May 9, where it remained on guard duty until June 20 when it was ordered to North East.   After spending three days at North East, the battery returned to Smithville where on June 26, 1864 it was further divided.   Forty-one men were sent to Wilmington, and the balance of the battery remained at Smithville.   Muster rolls indicate battery headquarters were located at Wilmington for July - October 1864.   On November 10, 1864 the battery was included in a detachment sent to Masonboro Sound where it remained until recalled to Wilmington on December 16.   From Wilmington it was sent to Fort Fisher where it participated in the action on December 24 - 25, 1864 and was captured when the fort fell on January 15, 1865.   The men captured at Fort Fisher were confined at Elmira, New York, while the officers were sent to Fort Columbus, New York Harbor.   All were confined until paroled for exchange or released after the war had ended.

The detachment at Weldon remained there from May 1864 until General Lawrence Baker withdrew to join General Johnston on April 12, 1865.   Failing to penetrate the Federal lines, General Baker surrendered his command at Bunn's House, Nash County, on April 20, 1865. Lieutenant Blount's detachment was not listed on the parole rolls, consequently it must have left General Baker's command before he surrendered.   The other detachments of the battery, on duty at Wilmington, were absorbed by other commands, and as infantry, after the evacuation of Wilmington, they participated in the subsequent operations below Kinston, at Bentonville, and were surrendered by General Johnston April 26, 1865.

The information contained in the following roster of the battery was compiled principally from the company muster rolls, which cover from the date of muster in through October 1864, less the rolls for November - December 1862 and March - April 1863 which were not found.   Although there are no Roll of Honor records for this battery, useful information was obtained from receipt rolls, hospital records, prisoner of war records, and other primary records, supplemented by State pension applications, United Daughters of the Confederacy records, and post war rosters and histories.

MISCELLANEOUS
The following list of men was compiled from primary records which record the unit as the
10th Regiment N.C. State Troops (1st Regiment N.C. Artillery) but do not give the company
to which they belonged.   As the names do not appear on any of the surviving muster rolls of any company in the regiment, they have been checked for possible misspelling or incorrect unit designation.   Some men appear on records created in areas where the regiment did not serve.   It is possible the individual either gave an assumed name or purposely gave an incorrect unit designation.   Since it is impossible to identify them with any company, they are recorded separately.

I have been asked a number of times about the Washington Greys March and wanted to inform the readers of my website that this march was not written in honor of the Washington Grays from Washington, Beaufort County, North Carolina.  In fact, this march was written in honor of and for the 8th Regiment, New York State Militia. 

Claudio Grafulla was the composer of this march.  Written in 1861 for the 8th Regiment, New York State Militia, this work has been called a march masterpiece, a band classic, and the prototype of the current march.  Showing the stylistic influence of both German and Italian marches, the march has a marvelous balance of technique and melody in a continuous flow of musical ideas.  It dared to break the old formulas, however, because it has no introduction, no break strain, and no stinger.
