Civil War Band Of Brothers - The Adcocks of Coalfield Made an Extreme Sacrifice
By Terry Futrell

Three Adcock brothers from Coalfield (then called Ruffners [Switch] ) provide an excellent example of the sacrifices made by many Morgan County families during the Civil War. Along with many men from Roane County, Archibald, James, and Pleasant Adcock made the harsh trip from Ruffners to Flat Lick, Kentucky in early February of 1862 to join the Union Army. The three brothers traveled through the mountains and Confederate lines to enlist in Company H of the 3rd Regiment East Tennessee Infantry Volunteers on February 10, 1862.
A few months after enlisting, all three brothers were captured by Confederates at the battle of London, Kentucky on August 17, 1862. Ironically, they were captured by Colonel J. S. Scott
