I find the author’s statement that blacks didn’t serve in South Carolina hard to believe.

Why?

I have seen Civil war photos of Black units (unknown configuration), from VA, GA and TN. They were fed and paid same as the Whites (for the most part).

Can you direct me to some? I have never seen anything documenting a single black unit in the Confederate army prior to March 1865.

You have never seen Civil war photos of Black Confederate units?

Unfortunately, I can’t remember any urls or names of books and other publications of the era at the moment, but maybe someone will see this post and accommodate us.
