James T. Crossland
James T. Crossland III was a lieutenant colonel in the Confederate Army of Tennessee, serving under the commands of Major General Lafayette McLaws and Major General Walthall. He was killed during Braxton Bragg's defense of Lookout Mountain during the Chattanooga Campaign. Crossland, who was Bragg's cousin, reportedly called the defense a "selfish and overconfident move by a General who cared little for the welfare of the men under his command."
==Early life and education==
Crossland was born in 1829 in Kentucky to James T. Crossland Jr. and Mary Davis Crossland. His father was a lawyer in Louisville and was the brother of Margaret Crossland Bragg, the mother of Major General Braxton Bragg. In 1835, his family moved to Warrenton, North Carolina in order to be closer to their family. He attended Warrenton Male Academy where he excelled in English and was an excellent writer. He was later accepted to Yale University and began studying literature in 1847. After two years at Yale, Crossland accepted an appointment to the Virginia Military Institute in Lexington, Virginia. He was later commissioned as a second lieutenant in the 5th U.S. Artillery in 1851.
