Bronze relief of Ogden sculpted in 1921

Frederick Nash Ogden was a Confederate officer and leading white supremacist organizer of New Orleans, Louisiana.[1] He was a major in the 8th Louisiana Heavy Artillery Battalion during the Siege of Vicksburg.[citation needed] He then led the 9th Louisiana Cavalry Regiment, a mounted infantry unit known as Ogden's Cavalry. After the war he became a leading White Leaguer and was involved in the Battle of Liberty Place.

He became known as General Fred Ogden and the Louisiana State Museum obtained a dress sword he was presented.[2] It also obtained a few of his papers.[3]

He served as president of the Crescent City White League shortly after its founding.[4]

A bronze relief was made of him by George T. Brewster in 1921 for his role at Vicksburg.[5] His funeral was a major event attended by political leaders. A road in New Orleans was named for him.
