Thomas George

Thomas, GEORGE HENRY (1816-70), American soldier, was born in Virginia, and earned some distinction in the army in his earlier years. On the breaking out of the Civil War in 1861 he received a command, and his prowess soon made his name a household one throughout the Federal States. He fought at Mill Springs, Perryville, Murfreesboro, Chickamauga, and in other important engagements, receiving the thanks of Congress in 1864 after his crushing defeat of General Hood.
