Clingman." Thomas L. Clingman (1812-1897) of North Carolina was a Confederate General during the Civil War. He had been in the U.S. House of Representatives 1843-45 and again in 1858-61. At the outset of the Civil War, he served as the commander of the 25th North Carolina Infantry and saw action at the Peninsula Campaign. Later he commanded Clingman's Brigade. They fought mostly in Virginia and North Carolina, seeing action at Goldsboro, Battery Wagner, Drewry's Bluff, Cold Harbor, Petersburg, Globe Tavern, Fort Fisher, and Bentonville. After the War he was not allowed to return to politics, but he acted as a voice for the development of North Carolina, especially in his home Mountains and foothills. Scarce.
