William Passmore Carlin

 

William Passmore Carlin (1829-1903) was a native of Illinois who

graduated from West Point in 1850 and served on frontier duty and

in Utah before the Civil War. Carlin began his Civil War career as

colonel of the 38th Illinois Infantry and served in the early battles

in Missouri and Mississippi. He commanded troops in the important

battles of Perryville, Stones River, Liberty Gap, Chickamauga,

Missionary Ridge, Buzzard Roost, Resaca, Kennesaw Mountain,

the siege of Atlanta, Jonesboro, and Bentonville. A successful

brigade and division commander from Perryville to Sherman's

March to the Sea and march through the Carolinas until the end

of the war, Carlin retired in 1893 as a brigadier general.
