Grace Marmaduke Sharp provides: "Henry Hungerford Marmaduke, a youngerson of Meredith Miles and Lavinia Sappington Marmaduke, was born inSaline County, August 20, 1842. He died in Washington City, November15, 1924.
He spent two years in the St. Louis University, then entered theUnited States Naval Academy. At the breaking out of the War betweenthe States, he resigned a few months before graduation, in 1861, thathe might enter the Confederate service. He was mishipman on thegunboat "McCree," on the lower Mississippi. The following is takenmostly from the Missouri Historical Record:
'In November, 1861, he was transferred to the 'Merrimac'. In thebattle between the 'Merrimac' and the 'Monitor, ' he was the youngestofficer on the former. He was severly wounded in this battle, and hisgallantry won high praise from Admiral Buchanan.
He was also in the battle against eh 'Cumberland,' and was in thefight against the Union fleet in the Mississippi, October 11, 1861. Hewas sent to London by the Confederacy for services on a Confederatecruiser, but was recalled, and after running the blockade atWilmington, N. C., was given command of the 'Samson,' at Savannah,Georgia.
He was Lieutenant of the 'Columbia,' and executive officer of theironclad 'Chicorn.' In the battle of Sailor's Creek, he was takenprisoner and sent to the old Capitol prison in Washington.
When in his sixtieth year, in 1902, he was placed in command of thewar vessel 'Bagota,' and in October of that year was given command ofthe entire fleet of the Pacific. He was the last surviving officer ofthe fight between the 'Merrimac' and the 'Monitor.'
For a while after the war he served as an official of the PullmanCompany, in Atlanta, and later was employed in the Treasury, State andWar Departments.
When he died, he was laid to rest with military honors in Arlington,at the base of the Confederate monument. The inscription at the basereads:
Not for fame or reward,
Not for place or rank,
Not lured by ambition
Or goaded by necessity,
But in simple duty
As they understood it,
These men suffered, all.'"
