Richard Garnett's war effects, along with those of his cousin
[General Robert Selden Garnett] are housed today in the Museum
of the Confederacy (Richmond, VA).
Richard Brooke Garnett Highest Rank: Brig-Gen Birth Date: 1817
Birth Place: Essex County, Virginia Biography:
Brigadier-General Richard Brooke Garnett, a cousin of Gen. R. S.
Garnett, was a native of Virginia and a graduate of the same
West Point class in which his cousin was a member.
Promoted second lieutenant of the Sixth infantry on graduation,
he began his services in the field in the Florida war of
1841-42. He subsequently served in garrison at Jefferson
barracks, MO, and on frontier duty at Fort Towson, Indian
Territory, and Fort Smith, Ark., and as aide-de-camp to
Brigadier-General Brooke at New Orleans.
He was promoted first lieutenant in February, 1847, and
continued in service, at San Antonio, Tex., and at Fort Pierre,
Dak., where he was promoted captain. He assisted in quelling the
Kansas disturbances in 1856-57, was detailed to escort the
southern boundary commissioners in 1857, served again in Kansas,
and was engaged in the Utah expedition and the subsequent march
to California.
In the latter territory and in New Mexico he served until he
resigned to offer his services to the Confederate States. He was
commissioned major, corps of artillery, C.S.A., and in November,
1861, promoted brigadier-general. Jackson, then in the
Shenandoah valley with a small force, was reinforced soon
afterward, and Garnett went with these forces, and at the
battle of Kernstown, March 23, 1862, he commanded the Stonewall
brigade.
During the Maryland campaign he commanded Pickett's brigade. In
the westward movement on September 14th, with his brigade he
reached Boonsboro after a hot and tiresome march over the
mountains, to which he was ordered to return that afternoon to
dispute the mountain pass with the Federal army.
His troops, almost exhausted, took a position before Turner's
gap, on the eastern slope of the South mountain, under artillery
fire, and sustained for some time a fierce attack from Reno's
corps of McClellan's army. On the 17th, Garnett and his men
fought to the southeast of Sharpsburg village, in support of the
Washington artillery, and later in the day in conjunction with
S. D. Lee's battalion, and were distinguished for bravery.
General Garnett was subsequently identified with the record of
Pickett's division, in command of his brigade, consisting of the
Eighth, Eighteenth, Nineteenth, Twenty-eighth and Fifty-sixth
Virginia regiments, which he finally led into action during the
memorable charge on the third day of the battle of Gettysburg.
The brigade moved forward in the front line, and gained the
enemy's strongest line, where the fighting became hand to hand
and of the most desperate character. The brigade went into
action with 1,287 men and 140 officers, and after the struggle
about 300 came back slowly and sadly from the scene of carnage.
General Garnett's part in this fatal action is thus reported by
his successor in command, Maj. Charles S. Peyton:
"Of our cool, gallant, noble brigade commander it may not be out
of place to speak. Never had the brigade been better handled,
and never has it done better service in the field of battle.
There was scarcely an officer or man in the command whose
attention was not attracted by the cool and handsome bearing of
General Garnett, who, totally devoid of excitement or rashness,
rode immediately in rear of his advancing line, endeavoring, by
his personal efforts and by the aid of his staff, to keep his
line well closed and dressed.
He was shot from his horse while near the center of the brigade,
within about 25 paces of the stone wall." Source: Confederate
