Ambrose Burnside (1824–1881) was a Union Army general during the American Civil War, known for his distinctive facial hair, which gave rise to the term “sideburns.” Born in Liberty, Indiana, Burnside graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1847.
He served in the Mexican-American War and later designed a breech-loading rifle, the Burnside carbine, which was used by the Union Army. During the Civil War, Burnside commanded forces in notable battles, including the ill-fated Battle of Fredericksburg in 1862, where his leadership was heavily criticized due to significant Union losses. Despite this, he played key roles in other campaigns, such as the capture of Roanoke Island and the defense of Knoxville.
After the war, Burnside served as the governor of Rhode Island from 1866 to 1869 and was later elected as a U.S. Senator. His legacy remains a mix of military and political service, marked by both achievements and controversies.
