=Sanders, Col. C. C.=, Gainesville, Ga.; president of the State
Banking Co. of Gainesville; alternate commissioner to World’s
Fair, Chicago, Ill., 1893; vice-president for Georgia, American
Bankers’ Association. Col. Sanders is of Irish and English
ancestry. On the maternal side, he is descended from Thomas and
Theodosia M. Smyth who emigrated from Ireland, in 1793, landing in
Charleston, S. C. They settled in Jones county, Ga. Thomas died
Nov. 28, 1799. On the paternal side, Colonel Sanders is a
descendant of Rev. Moses Sanders who emigrated from England, with
two brothers, John and David, and arrived in Petersburg, Va.,
1765. They embraced the Patriotic cause in the Revolution and were
active in operations against the British. Col. Sanders, the
subject of this sketch, graduated from the Georgia Military
Institute, in June, 1861; entered the Confederate service; was
made lieutenant-colonel of the Twenty-fourth regiment of infantry,
Georgia volunteers, August, 1861; served under General Lee in the
Peninsular campaign, in the seven days’ battles around Richmond,
Va., and was among the bravest of the brave; commanded his
regiment at Malvern Hill and at Marye’s Heights, Fredericksburg,
where the Twenty-fourth was a part of the Confederate forces that
received the valorous charges of Meagher’s Irish Brigade. He also
commanded the regiment at the battles of Chancellorsville and
Antietam, at which latter conflict he was placed in command of
Wofford’s Brigade. While in this position he met a bayonet charge
from the Federals by a counter bayonet charge, and in the
desperate fighting that ensued, fifty-eight per cent. of Sanders’
heroic force was swept away. Colonel Sanders also led the
Twenty-fourth at Cedar Creek, Chickamauga, Knoxville, the
Wilderness, Spottsylvania Court House, and Sailor’s Creek. On Apr.
6, 1865, Ewell’s corps, to which Colonel Sanders’ regiment was
then attached, was captured, and Colonel Sanders was sent as a
prisoner of war to Washington, D. C. Writing of Meagher’s Irish
Brigade, Colonel Sanders says: “I was in command of the
Twenty-fourth Georgia regiment, with other troops, at the foot of
Marye’s Heights, receiving the five heroic and gallant charges of
the Irish Brigade, whose prodigies of valor have filled the
country with admiration. I saw the devoted Irish charge up to our
breastworks, to be mowed down by a line of Confederate fire that
no soldiers could withstand. I saw the Irish battalions cut down
like grain before the reaper, yet the survivors would
magnificently close up their ranks only to have huge gaps again
cut through them. When forced back they rallied and came bravely
on again, only to be riddled with bullets and torn by artillery.
Their fifth charge was made with greatly decimated ranks that
slowly recoiled like the waves of a tempestuous sea. When twilight
descended upon the scene, a spectacle was presented unequaled in
warfare. At least three fourths of my command was composed of men
of Irish descent and knew that the gallant dead in our front were
our kindred of the land beyond the sea. When, one by one, the
stars came out that night, many tears were shed by Southern
Confederate eyes for the heroic Federal Irish dead.” During the
war Colonel Sanders was offered the rank of brigadier-general but
declined the same.
