Early life
David W. Baine was born on August 29, 1829, in Connecticut.[1] His father, John McBain, was a Scottish immigrant from Dunfermline and a Methodist preacher.[1] His mother, Maria Adkins, descended from an old Puritan family.[1]
Baine graduated from Allegheny College at the age of 17.[1]
Career
Baine began his career as a schoolteacher in Centre, Alabama, in 1848.[1] By 1855, he became a lawyer thanks to the influence of Thomas B. Cooper.[1] A year later, he moved to Hayneville, Alabama.[1] He quickly became the commanding officer (“general”) of a local band of militia, the Hayneville Guards.[1] He also shared an office with William L. Yancey in Montgomery, Alabama.[1] He was a delegate from Lowndes County, Alabama, at the 1860 Democration National Convention, where he supported the secession of Alabama from the Union.[2]
During the American Civil War of 1861-1865, Baine joined the Confederate States Army by enlisting in the 1st Regiment Alabama.[1] On August 1, 1861, he became a Lieutenant Colonel in the 14th Regiment Alabama.[1] He was first stationed in Camp Jones, Huntsville, Alabama, and he was transferred to Richmond, Virginia, on November 4, 1861.[1] He took part in the Seven Days Battles of June–July 1862, where he commanded the 14th Regiment Alabama alongside General James Longstreet's 5th brigade.[1] His last military action was at the Battle of Frazier's Farm.[1]
Personal life and death
Baine married Mary Powell Hogue, a Southern belle.[1] They had two daughters, Mary (born 1850) and Mildred (born 1855), and a son, Thomas Cooper (born 1860).[1] They resided on Washington Street in Hayneville, Alabama.[1]
Baine was killed in battle on June 30, 1862.[1] In 1866-1867, Etowah County, Alabama, was called Baine County in his honor.[1]
