"Henry Bunn, a gallant Georgia
soldier in one of the first regiments enlisted for the period of the war,
the Sixth Georgia, is deserving of remembrance among the heroes of the
war in Virginia. He entered the service in Company I of the Sixth
Georgia, under the command of Gen. Alfred H. Colquitt, then a colonel,
and served in Virginia on the peninsula during the early months of the
war. He was in battle on the Yorktown lines, and in the retreat toward
Richmond, and on June 27, 1862, participated in the fighting of D. H. Hill's
division at Gaines' Mill or Cold Harbor, where his regiment suffered heavy
loss. He was shot in the hand, but after he had gone to the rear
and had this wound dressed he returned to the front and again joined in
the attack upon the Federal works, when a ball pierced his heart, instantly
putting an end to his heroic career. He was given a soldier's burial
on the field of battle.
His family was devoted
to the Confederate cause and yet cherishes the sacred memories of the war
for Southern ndependence. A brother, William C. Bunn, residing at
Cedartown, is now prominent as an attorney, and well known throughout the
State. He was graduated at Mercer university in 1881, and in 1882
began the practice of law at Cedartown. During the two decades which
have elapsed he has rapidly risen in his profession, and is particularly
prominent as a corporation lawyer, representing the Eastern & Western
railroad company, the Alabama & Georgia Iron company and Georgia &
Alabama mining company and several of the leading mills and factories in
northern Georgia. In 1898-99 he represented his senatorial district
in the upper house of the Georgia legislature. Mr. Bunn was married
in 1886 to Anna, daughter of Capt. W. C. Knight, a Confederate officer,
and clerk of the court of Polk county." Source:
