CCWR Civilian & Non-Combatant Corps During the years of the Civil War, many civilians were displaced as the Union and Confederate Armies moved through the South. Many of these civilians were southern women, children and the elderly, who had to vacate their homes or farms quickly. Their only possessions were often no more than was carried or worn on their backs. Many re-enactors choose to portray these brave ones of the 1860's. Others choose to portray the Northern homefront. In either case the roles they assume during re-enactments give the public a taste of the harshness of life during the War. We are attempting to recreate parts of the whole picture of the period for our visitors. We wish also to encourage those who might desire to become a part of what we enjoy doing to join in and become a part of the living history found in the CCWR. Our Military Brigades re-enact the battles and the soliders' life during the Civil War; the Civilian and Non-Combatant Corps attempt to show people how the civilian population lived while the war took place.
