SUMMARY:African American Civil War Soldiers Honor Roll - Call for names
DESCRIPTION:Dear Friends and Community Members\, \nAcross Chicago\, countless stories of courage and service remain untold. Among them are the legacies of Black men who\, during the Civil War\, donned Union blue and fought for freedom—not only for themselves\, but for generations to come. \nOver the past two years\, Bronzeville Historical Society has encouraged family historians and community members to look closely at their family trees\, to uncover the names and stories of these patriot ancestors. Already\, a few names have been shared with us: \n\n• Enos Bond\n   Nero Cooper\n• Henry Slaughter\n• James Jackson\n• Charles Griffin\n   Mack Reese\n• Zach Bell\n• James Taylor\n• John Litre\n            and more….\nThese men’s sacrifices deserve to be remembered\, honored\, and taught. That is why we are developing a special exhibit that will feature images of these soldiers alongside their biographies. This project will be a lasting tribute\, ensuring that their names live on and inspire future generations. Bronzeville Historical Society is collecting names of African American Union Soldiers of the Civil War\n\nthrough December 2025.  The names will be added to an exhibit proposed for Illinois250 programs in June 2026. \nWe now turn to you. We invite Black Chicagoans to contribute the names of their Civil War ancestors who served. Whether you have a photograph\, a document\, a family story\, or simply a name passed down through the years\, we want to include your ancestor in this historic effort. \nTogether\, we can weave a collective tapestry of remembrance—one that uplifts our community’s role in shaping the nation’s history.\nPlease send names\, stories\, or photographs to: Sherry Williams \n\nEmail: bronzevillehistoricalsociety@gmail.com\nor by mail at 4455 S. King Drive Suite 103\n\n                        Chicago\, IL 60653 \nLet us honor our Civil War heroes by making their bravery visible. Their courage made our future possible; now it is our turn to carry their memory forward.
