The Battle of Fredericksburg sung by George Vinton Graham.
I am guessing this was sung in San Jose, California in 1938 or 1939.

The Battle of Fredericksburg was fought December 11–15, 1862, in and around Fredericksburg, Virginia, between General Robert E. Lee's Confederate Army of Northern Virginia and the Union Army of the Potomac, commanded by Major General Ambrose Burnside, as part of the American Civil War. The Union Army's futile frontal attacks on December 13 against entrenched Confederate defenders on the heights behind the city are remembered as one of the most one-sided battles of the war, with Union casualties more than three times as heavy as those suffered by the Confederates. A visitor to the battlefield described the battle to U.S. President Abraham Lincoln as a "butchery.

George Vinton Graham was born in Ireland (possibly in the 1870s). He emigrated to the USA, where he lived in Iowa before moving to San Jose California. His singing is considered an important example of Anglo-American folk music. The Graham recordings were made by ethnographer Sidney Robertson Cowell in San Jose, California in 1938 and 1939.
