6th North Carolina Infantry Regimental "Deeds Not Words" Flag Shirt

She presented it to the Sixth Regiment North Carolina State Troops commanded by her brother Colonel Charles Fisher who was later killed on July 21, 1861 at the Battle of First Manassas. It is documented that the flag was carried not only at Manassas but also at Gettysburg in July 1863. The flag was carried by veterans from the regiment on May 20, 1894 during the laying of the cornerstone of the Confederate Monument on the grounds of the North Carolina state capitol building.

Tiernan had become an accomplished writer after the war using the pen name of “Christian Reid." [Read More]
