description	(Photograph appears to be an artistically retouched pre-war image.) Graduated from West Point, 1842; Mexican War veteran. Resigned his U.S. Army commission in 1854. Commissioned as a brigadier general in the Confederate Army in September 1861 and promoted to major general one month later. Major campaigns and battles include New Orleans and Corinth. Lovell was cleared of blame for the loss of New Orleans but was not given any more assignments in the war, despite numerous requests from well-respected Confederate officers. After the war, he remained in the South as a planter but later returned to New York City. He died in New York in June 1884 and is buried there. Sources: Boatner, Mark M. The Civil War Dictionary.
