It became part of New Jersey's proud Civil War history - and is now one of 170 state-related artifacts, largely assembled by Mount Holly historian and author Paul Loane, for the sesquicentennial of the conflict.
The exhibit, called "Gone for a Soldier - Jerseymen in the Civil War," will open Sunday at the Macculloch Hall Historical Museum in Morristown and will run through July 1.
"Almost everything in the collection has a personal history to it," said Loane, the exhibit's cocurator, who is related to six men who fought for the Union. "I selected things that were actually used by soldiers and all have little stories to go with them."
Loane, 63, retired director of alumni relations at Rutgers University-Camden, arranged to borrow the artifacts from museums and personal collections in New Jersey and nearby states, including the Museum of the Confederacy in Richmond, Va. He believes the exhibit is the largest public assemblage of New Jersey-related relics.
"The flag [of the 26th North Carolina] certainly symbolizes some of the most climactic moments of the nation's greatest struggle," Loane said. "It's one of those enduring symbols of the South's 'lost cause,' and recalls the bravery of men on both sides."
