@Regrann From @theblaquelioness - "Some Historians Have Stated It Would Have Been Impossible For A Person

@Regrann from @theblaquelioness - "Some historians have stated it would have been impossible for a person who neither reads nor writes to have related the stories of the Civil War in such detail as Magee without having served in the conflict. One historian stated that Magee talked with 'rare intelligence and seldom rambled' in telling of his participation in the Civil War. ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ ➖➖➖ He lived to be, according to history and the data that we’ve collected throughout the Internet, he was 130 years of age when he passed away in 1971. Sylvester Magee had no birth certificate, but chancery court records in Covington County list him and his father as being passed on to the next of kin when their owner died in 1859. Mr. Magee always insisted his birthday was May 29th, 1841. Now as if being 130 years old when he died weren’t enough, there are a couple of OTHER significant details about his life and death that sets him apart. Not only was that old, but he was the last American slave (slavery victim in America) to die. And, because he did service with the Union Army in the siege of Vicksburg, he was the last Union Veteran to die. And since he started the war as an arms bearer to his master on the side of the South, he is perhaps also the last CONFEDERATE veteran to die. ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ He’s listed in the book 'Black Confederates.' His accounts of the Union Army crossing the Big Black River after the Battle of Champion Hill on their way into Vicksburg convinced historian A. P. Andrews he had to have been there, since Mr. Magee couldn’t read or write. How else could he have known all the minute details and names of the officers? 😊 And don’t forget, he also lived to be 130 years of age." ♥️ Source Sylvester Magee’s unmarked grave MSNewsNow.com -- blackthen.com ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ #SylvesterMagee #BlackHistory #theblaquelioness - #regrann
