Food for Thought: The principle for which we contend is bound to reassert it s self, though it may be at another time and in another form. - President Jefferson Davis, C.S.A. Confederate Railroads: A mile of Southern railroad required a large investment in iron, local products and labor. The labor came mostly from slaves hired from local plantations. Frequently, plantation owners along the proposed line of a railroad would pay for shares of ownership in the new railroad with the labor of their slaves on the line near the plantation. The local products were ballast material sand, gravel, crushed rock and wood. The wood was required for bridge, water tank, and station construction and for ties. The new railroad made do with whichever ballast material and wood it could obtain in the area. The iron was the difficult part of building the railroad. Rail was usually purchased from England and produced in Wales. The cost, including shipping, was about the same as Northern produced rail, but English rail had a reputation for lasting longer. Rail produced in the South was almost non-existent. Chairs and spikes were frequently Southern. Here are the numbers for one mile of track (both rails), made as cheaply as possible, consistent with accepted engineering practices: T-rail T-rail Chairs 3,500 yards of 62#/yard rail for the main line 60 yards of 50#/yard rail for 1/5th of a 480ft station siding (1 siding per 5 miles) # cast iron (1 per length of rail) A&P was established as "Gilman & Company" in 1859, and began selling bags of whole bean coffee on their own. Their coffee, however, was not given a true official name at that time, being sometimes called "Eight O'Clock Breakfast Coffee" at the start. Despite selling off the brand in 2003, A&P would continue to sell Eight O'Clock Coffee in its family of stores until the supermarkets closed in late Eight O'Clock is also sold in other supermarkets across the country. Spikes Total iron Ties Culverts Bridges Ballast Station Water tank 4,700 1# iron (2 per tie) 234,500 pounds / 117 tons 2,350 1 per 2.25 feet 1 per 5 miles 1 per 10 miles, very rough average varied, but always as little as possible in the initial construction 1 per 5 to 10 miles 1 per 15 miles, or more if the terrain required it 4
5 Confederate Manufacturers: On April 22, 1861, the state of North Carolina seized the Fayetteville Arsenal which was U.S. property. Governor Elis of N.C. offered the arms stored at the arsenal to President Jefferson Davis of the Confederacy. There were 32,678 muskets and 3,685 rifles confiscated. The captures rifle machinery at Harper s Ferry in April 1861 was shipped to Fayetteville Armory by June, At first the armory fabricated captured gun parts from Harper s Ferry and converted flintlock arms to percussion. By the spring of 1862 the armory was in full production. The early production rifles, marked 1861 and 1862, were made from captured Harper s Ferry parts. The lock plate was made for the Maynard tape priming primer, but not milled, and its shape was similar to the humpback Richmond lock. The second production type lock plate is less humpbacked, dated 1862, and made form Harper s Ferry parts. The standard type has a lock plate without the humpback profile and is similar to the U.S. Model 1861 musket. Also it has characteristics "S" hammer. The total production of the Fayetteville Armory was over 10,000 rifles. The brass mounted rifle was marked on the lock "Fayetteville, N.C." above the eagle and "CSA" under the eagle. The locks were dated 1862, 1863, and The brass butt plate was stamped "CSA". The barrel breech was marked "VP" with an eagle head motif and the date. This is identical to the Harper s Ferry barrel markings. The early rifles made in 1861 and 1862 used the saber bayonet with a lug on the barrel and after 1862 the socket bayonet was used to save material. The Fayetteville rifle was a well-made arm. It was.58 caliber with a 33" barrel and 49" in total length. The rifle was made with brass bands, butt plate, trigger guard, and force-end cap. The stock was marked "JB" which stands for James Burton, the Fayetteville inspector. Fayetteville also assembled a few hundred Model 1855 pistolcarbines from the captured parts from Harper s Ferry. The obsolete single-shot- pistol-carbines with attachable shoulder stock were produced because of the tremendous need for arms by the South. These arms are very rare. In March of 1865, the Fayetteville Armory machinery was shipped to Chatham Country to avoid Sherman s troops. However, within two months the Yankees found the machinery and transferred it to Raleigh." Confederate Kinfolk Corner: Alfred Manley Parrish, third great grandfather of William O Quinn enlisted in Orange County on February 4, 1863, for the war. Present or accounted for until transferred to Company E, 13th Battalion North Carolina Light Artillery on November 4, Present or accounted for through February Appears on roll of men paroled at Greensboro on April 27, Alfred was born 5 SEP 1827 and died 21 JUN He is buried at O'Kelly's Chapel in Chatham County, NC. He first married Dicey Harward, daughter of Britain Harward and Mildred Barbee. They had one son in 1853, William Haywood Parrish. Dicey died 9 days after the birth of their son. Next, he married, Frances Pope, daughter of Josiah Pope and Lucy Kennon. (Frances, third great grandaunt of Dick Pickett, is the younger sister of Erasmus Pope, who served in the 3rd Battalion Senior Reserves NC, Captain Isaac Laws' Company, Reserve Force in Orange County.) Frances and Alfred had five children. Their son Thomas Alfred Parrish is the second great grandfather of William O Qiunn. 5
