History of the North Florida Artillery The North Florida Artillery was formed as a partnership between two great cannoneers - Al Hartman and Jim Long.
They put their cannons and their heart and enthusiasm together in the fall of 2000 at Andersonville, GA. The organization
has grown to include dozens of civil war reenactors and their families. The North Florida Artillery was incorporated
as a non-profit organization in the state of Florida in March 2007.
In Memory of our beloved Captain and co-founder, Jim Long.
May St. Barbara, patron saint of artillery bless and keep you in heaven.

Our Charter
We are a Civil War reenactment group based
in north Florida and are actively recruiting members who have an interest in Civil War history and reenactment. We enjoy portraying members of both sides of the war as a tribute to our heritage
from the north and the south.
We are a family-oriented
group, and encourage the participation of family members in our camp. We feel that having family involved enriches the experience and promotes the best values of reenacting.
