Honoring Civil War Soldiers

On May 20, 2023, the Madison County African American Historical Association partnered with Right the Record and History Quest to honor more than 300 African American soldiers who fought for the United States in the Union Army during the Civil War. Seventy-one soldiers from Madison County were commemorated in a solomn reading of the soldiers’ names. More information about this event can be found here. Right the Record continues to research the descendants of these brave men.
