31. Law, James nativity: not stated; units(s): First Infantry, Louisiana Guard Battery--James Law resided in Hamilton, Canada prior to leaving for the United States in the summer of 1860. He eventually settled in New Orleans, and upon the breaking out of war, joined the Louisiana Guard Company of the First Infantry. This company was a short time later reorganized as an artillery battery. James Law was present on all rolls until February 1862. For March and April, he is listed as "Absent, under arrest by Civil Process in Suffolk, Va. Claims exemption, British Subject." It is still unclear what became of this, although it appears that he may have continued serving with the unit until the end of 1862, when he returned to Hamilton. Shortly after arriving home, he became ill and died.

    This list was compiled from Louisiana Confederate Soldiers by Andrew B. Booth, which has been transcribed by Rootsweb. Unfortunately, the records that Booth consulted were often incomplete, and very often did not state the soldier's nativity. Based on the above list, then, it is safe to say that there were several hundred Canadian-born men serving with Louisiana regiments. Information on James Law was derived from obituaries that were printed in two Hamilton newspapers.
