Biographical History
Union soldier; enlisted in the 7th Illinois Cavalry Regiment, Company D, in 1861; died of wounds in 1864.
Charles W. Gallentine was a Civil War soldier in the 7th Illinois Cavalry, Company D.
Charles W. Gallentine and his younger brother, William, enlisted together as privates on August 10, 1861 and were mustered in September 7, 1861. Together, they left their farm in Farmington, Illinois at ages 20 and 21 to travel with the 7th Illinois Calvary from camp in Springfield, Illinois through Corinth and Jacinto, Mississippi; Courtland, Alabama; Bolivar, LaGrange, and Memphis, Tennessee. On the way, the Gallentines moved quickly from parading to active service, fighting in multiple skirmishes near Corinth and Coffeeville. Although Charles was soon tired of soldiering, he was committed to the cause and stayed in the war until he was wounded and died in February, 1864 at Okolona, Mississippi. William survived his brother and was mustered out on October 15, 1864.
