The Civil War Letters of James Bradley
註釋James E. Bradley was born in Northern Ireland and came to the U.S. in 1850 with his parents, who first settled in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. In 1858 they moved to a farm in Doniphan County, Kansas. James Bradley left the farm and ended up working in Memphis, Tennessee, where he joined the Confederate Army. He later "became disillusioned by the Southern policy to dissolve the Union", travelled to Virginia and joined the Army of the Potomac using the name McCullough (McCullock), his mother's maiden name. He fought in several battles with Company K of the 146th Regiment, New York State Volunteers. In 1864 he was transferred to Fort Snelling, near St. Paul, Minnesota to serve in "Company Q, known as the Rebel Deserters". Charles E. Bradley, the brother to whom most of the letters were sent was a student at the Academy of Christian Brothers in St. Louis, Missouri.
