32nd Regiment, North Carolina Infantry (Lenoir Braves) 

32nd Infantry Regiment was organized at Drewry's Bluff, Virginia, in April, 1862, 
using the 1st North Carolina Infantry Battalion as its nucleus. Its companies were 
raised in the counties of Tyrrell, Nash, Camden, Northampton, Catawba, Bertie, 
Chatham, and Franklin. The unit was stationed near Petersburg and Drewry's Bluff 
during the fall of 1862, then returned to North Carolina. Here it served in and around 
Kinston until May, 1863, when it moved back to Virginia. Assigned to General 
Daniel's and Grimes' Brigade it fought in various conflicts from Gettysburg to Cold 
Harbor, saw action in the Shenandoah Valley with Early, and ended the war at 
Appomattox. This regiment lost thirty-five percent of the 454 engaged at Gettysburg 
and sustained 3 casualties at Bristoe and 3 at Mine Run. It surrendered with 4 officers 
and 110 men on April 9, 1865. The field officers were Colonels Edmund C. Brabble, 
David G. Cowand, and Henry C. Lewis, and Lieutenant Colonel William T. Williams. 

1st Infantry Battalion was formed during the spring of 1861 with six companies. The 
unit served at Portsmouth, in eastern North Carolina, then the Petersburg area before 
merging into the 32nd North Carolina Regiment. Its commanders were Lieutenant 
Colonel William T. Williams and Major Edmund C. Brabble.
