Who was the man that died at fort Sumter?

A soldier of Sumters garrison, Private Daniel Hough, was killed. As the defenders were firing a 100 gun salute while lowering the US flag a cannon burst causing his death. This was after the fort had surrendered and not due to hostile action. Private Hough is sometimes pointed to as the first man to die in the War between the States.


Did anyone die in the Battle of Fort Sumter in 1861?

Yes, but not as a result of enemy fire. While executing a 100 gun salute prior to their surrender, nearby ammunition was ignited by a spark and one member of the gun crew was killed. The other crewmen were wounded, and one of those later died of his wounds. The salute was reduced 50 shots, the flag was struck, and the Union troops withdrew.no, but not as right away . and everyone was scary when someone died because i would be scared if that happened to me Chelsea i would be really scared and i would go to my mom or my dad or my family members.I heard on a TV documentary that there was one casualty as a result of the battle; a Confederate horse.No, noone died at The Battle of Fort Sumter. But a horse died.
