The story of David Carll, as told by his descendants, is available to read. Born 1845 in Cold Spring Harbor, New York.  Prior to enlisting, David lived and worked as a boatman in Oyster Bay, New York. He enlisted to fight in the Civil War in 1863. As a free man, David would set out on a dark journey into a place and time far different from his home on Long Island. David's time in the southern states would forever change him.  After years of careful research, and family history passed down through the generations, David Carll's descendants are telling his story. In the books, "Footsteps of a Forgotten Soldier." and "Who We Are". From the small village where he lived, to his controversial interracial marriage, and his return home from the war, this story follows David Carll prior to enlistment, during his military training at Riker's Island New York, then, onto the battlefield at Johns Island and Honey Hill, South Carolina. A compelling true story that will literally take you in the footsteps of a forgotten soldier.
