Prior to the Civil War,
DeWitt Clinton Peters was stationed at Ft. Massachusetts,
New Mexico Territory and later at Ft. Davis Texas. When
Gen’l Twiggs turned over US posts under his command to the
Confederates, men from Ft. Davis who were loyal to the Union
attempted to make their way back North. Their journey was
interrupted by the firing upon Ft. Sumter. Peters and the
men he was with were taken prisoner at San Antonio, TX. As
an officer, Peters was exchanged and paroled for a
Confederate surgeon held at Ft. Warren in Boston, Harbor. He
was assigned command of Stuart Mansion Hospital, later
called the Jarvis U.S. General Hospital in Baltimore, MD.
The Jarvis was a 1500 bed hospital. According to family oral
tradition, Peters and his wife Emily (seven-months pregnant
with their son, also to be named DeWitt Clinton Peters) were
attending Ford’s Theater the night of Lincoln’s
assassination. After the Civil War, Peters was assigned as
surgeon in charge of the hospital in Fort Union, New Mexico.
