Welcome to our site

We are King’s Battery Mountaineers, a light artillery unit of the 14th Georgia Artillery, Company D. Our “galvanized” Federal unit is the 13th New York Independent (read What is a “galvanized Yankee?” at our FAQs page). Formed in late 2005, King’s Battery consists of Civil War enthusiasts who want to enrich both our knowledge and heritage by participating in CW reenactments. Through our advocation, each of us has gained a deeper insight into various facets of this turbulent time in U.S. history which otherwise couldn't be acquired by simply reading a book or attending a classroom. We think of ourselves as “living historians” who desire to share our enthusiasm with the public in a way that is both informative and entertaining. We also strongly encourage Civil War buffs to participate in reenactments (hint: Join our group!). Check out our event schedule in the sidebar, and visit to witness the Civil War era come alive again!
