Question: Sergeant James B. Bell received what honor for his actions in the war that broke out April 1861 
Context: Sergeant James Fegan (1827 – June 25, 1886) was an American soldier in the U.S. Army who served with the 2nd and 3rd U.S. Infantry during the American Civil War, and Indian Wars.  In March 1868, while escorting a powder train en route from Fort Harker to Fort Dodge, Kansas, he single-handedly prevented a mob from blowing up the train to free an army deserter.  For his efforts, he received the Medal of Honor. Arthur Wilbraham Dillon Bell (4 April 1856 – 29 May 1943) was an engineer active in New Zealand and Western Australia.  Bell was a son of Francis Dillon Bell; his father was at the time of his birth a member of the New Zealand House of Representatives.  His elder brother, Francis Bell, would later be Prime Minister of New Zealand.  Bell received his secondary schooling in New Zealand and after a time in journalism and as a public servant, he went to England to train as an engineer.  After a short period of engineering work in England, he returned to New Zealand in 1879, and in 1891 he went to Western Australia.  He retired young in 1907 and returned to live in New Zealand.  In 1917, the Bells moved to Melbourne to be with their daughter's family. The Battle of Sewell's Point was an inconclusive exchange of cannon fire between the Union gunboat USS "Monticello", supported by the USS "Thomas Freeborn", and Confederate batteries on Sewell's Point that took place on May 18, 19 and 21, 1861, in Norfolk County, Virginia in the early days of the American Civil War.  Little damage was done to either side.  By the end of April 1861, USS "Cumberland" and a small number of supporting ships were enforcing the Union blockade of the southeastern Virginia ports at the southern end of the Chesapeake Bay and had captured several ships which attempted to pass the blockade.  USS "Monticello's" bombardment of the Sewell's Point battery was one of the earliest Union Navy actions against Confederate forces during the Civil War.  While it has been suggested by some sources that the "Monticello's" action may have been the first gunfire by the Union Navy during the Civil War, a brief exchange of cannon fire between the U.S. gunboat USS "Yankee" and shore batteries manned by Virginia volunteer forces which had not yet been incorporated into the Confederate States Army at Gloucester Point, Virginia on the York River occurred on May 7, 1861. Francis Thomas Anderson (December 11, 1808 – November 30, 1887) was born in Botetourt County, Virginia.  He received his education at first from his mother and then at the school of Curtis Alderson at Ben Salem in Rockbridge County, Virginia.  Later he attended the Fincastle Classical School for several years before enrolling in Washington College, from which he graduated at the age of nineteen.  He studied law under Fleming B. Miller and Chancellor Creed Taylor and was admitted to the bar at the age of twenty-one.  For a few years, he taught a small class of law students, but because of his law practice, he had to give that up.  In 1855, he moved to Rockbridge County where he lived until 1866.  According to a statement found in the archive of the Virginia Military Institute, "Judge F. T. Anderson was to give an oration and raise the US flag at the court house (April 1861), but when he learned that Virginia had seceded (17 April 1861) he announced that the flag now “was in the hands of the enemy and would not be raised in Lexington.”"  He was elected to the Virginia House of Delegates in 1861 but owing to impaired health, declined re-election in 1863.  In 1869, he resumed the practice of law and, in 1870, was appointed to the Supreme Court of Appeals.  Here, he remained until 1883 when he retired and returned to private practice.  From 1879 until his death, he was rector of Washington and Lee University. Sergeant James B. Bell (August 9, 1835 – June 30, 1910) was an American soldier who fought in the American Civil War and a recipient of the U.S. military's highest decoration, the Medal of Honor, for his actions at the Battle of Missionary Ridge on November 25, 1863. The American Civil War (commonly known as the "Civil War" in the United States) was fought in the United States from 1861 to 1865.  The result of a long-standing controversy over slavery, war broke out in April 1861, when Confederates attacked Fort Sumter in South Carolina, shortly after Abraham Lincoln was inaugurated.  The nationalists of the Union proclaimed loyalty to the U.S. Constitution.  They faced secessionists of the Confederate States of America, who advocated for states’ rights to perpetual slavery and its expansion in the Americas. The United Kingdom Census of 1861 recorded the people residing in every household on the night of 7 April 1861, and was the third of the UK censuses to include details of household members.  The census was taken and recorded everyone living in a household on Sunday 7 April 1861 The 1861 format of the census was identical to the previous 1851 census, despite pressures for 'religious affiliation' questions to be included.  This suggestion was rejected at the time. Isabella Foster Rogers Kells (15 April 1861 – 12 July 1938) was a New Zealand teacher, postmistress and community leader.  She was born in East Tamaki, Auckland, New Zealand on 15 April 1861. Sergeant James Edgar Engle (1844 to November 19, 1897) was an American soldier who fought in the American Civil War.  Engle received the country's highest award for bravery during combat, the Medal of Honor, for his action during the Bermuda Hundred Campaign in Virginia on 18 May 1864.
