Ellsworth Avenged 14”x 20” signed limited edition(100)print Elmer Ephraim Ellsworth was born just outside of Albany, New York in 1837. In the late 1850’s he moved to the Midwest and formed Ellsworth’s Zouaves, a militia drill team that became nationally known. He later studied law with Abraham Lincoln and assisted Lincoln’s 1860 Presidential Campaign. When war broke out Ellsworth came back to his home state and helped to raise the 11th New York regiment and became their Colonel. On May 24th 1861 day after Virginia’s Secession he led troops into Alexandria. Ellsworth spotted a large a confederate flag hanging from local hotel. Incensed, he entered the building and tore down the flag. As Ellsworth descended the stairway he was shot by the owner. The event stunned the North and provided a burst of early war enthusiasm. Part of that reaction was a call for a regiment to honor Colonel Ellsworth. The 44th New York was the result and the unit was given the nickname of “Ellsworth’s Avengers.” The original plan was to have one member from every locality in the state. While that concept was not completely adhered to, the regiment represented nearly every locality in the State. The 44th left Albany with 1061 recruits on October 21st 1861 and fought extensively in the Peninsula Campaign and 2nd Manassas as part of the Army of the Potomac.. The 44th came to Gettysburg with 460 men, its complement swelled by veterans from several mustered out regiments. As part of Colonel Strong Vincent’s Brigade of the 5th Corps the 44th was diverted to Little Round Top where held the center of the brigade’s line along side it sister regiment, the 83rd Pa. The vital hill was undefended before the Brigade’s arrival and almost immediately came under attack. Six regiments from Hood’s Division made repeated assaults from 5:00 PM until nightfall. The scene above shows the 5th Texas making a late assault. In the valley below the 40th New York is withdrawing for the area of Devil’s Den along with Ward’s Brigade on Houck’s ridge. The 44th held firm against each Southern attack. The price was high as 36 men died and 69 were wounded. 14” x 20” signed Limited Edition Print (100) with certificate of authenticity Just some of the feedback for Gettysburg Diographs.
