Petersburg Va

July 17, 1839

Killed in action Atlanta

July 20, 1864

Enlisted April 14, 1862 at Shelby Springs, Alabama as a member of Captains Selden’s company of Gid Nelson’s Light Alabama Artillery.His brother  L. White Duggar (also buried here) was a lieutenant in Selden's Battery. Fredrick was present for all musters of 1862 and 1863 during which time he attained the rank of corporal.  

On July 20, 1864  Selden’s Battery was engaged in the Battle of Peachtree Creek during the Union siege of Atlanta. The battery was in position on the left of Pace’s Ferry road on an open field on the slope of a hill in the rear of Reynold’s Brigade of Walthall’s Division. During the battle the battery was hotly engaged and was constantly changing face to return fire. Lieutenant Colonel Lovelace’s report mentions the gallant behavior of Lieutenant Duggar, but not the death of Fredrick.  About 4 p.m. killed by a piece of shell while sighting a cannon, possible from the cannon misfiring.  

He was buried the next day in Atlanta and after the war his body was removed back home to Alabama to St. Andrew's Churchyard in Hale County.
