The Blue Family In The Civil War.

I was trying to think of a family name that was a little uncommon but when I got to looking into the name I found the name was not that uncommon after all. But I couldn’t get it out of my mind, so I made this list of Blue’s in the Civil War, there is over 500 names, on this page. I hope this list will help you find your ancestor.

Note. The States are not in alphabetical order, but the names in each state are in alphabetical order. Be sure to read each note under each title or below the name.

A thank you from .

Darrell Blue, of Yakima Wa.

Thanks much for sharing the information about Civil War soldiers named Blue. I thought you might like to know that L. John Monroe Blue, Company D, 11th Virginia Cavalry was very famous in his part of the country. He was originally a spy for the Confedercy, and was captured two or three times by the Union army. He ultimately spent over a year in Union prisons, most of the time on Johnson Island, Ohio.

He lived near and in Romney, Virginia (now West Virginia), and in the 1890's wrote a series of articles about his war experiences for The Hampshire Review. In recent years, two books have been written about Lt. Blue, using those articles as a basis for the information.

The books are Lt. John Blue, Huckleberry Ranger, by Charles Ambler, and Hanging Rock Rebel, by Dan Oates. I believe that both books are now out of print. The Ambler book was never printed and distributed. The manuscript is held by the University of West Virginia. The Oates book was self published by the author who lives in Romney, WV, and is a reporter for The Hampshire Review. I have copies of boh books, and they are a terrific account of the horrors of war, and the motivation that both armies felt during this great conflict.
