Organized in Lexington, Holmes County, March 17, 1862. Mustered into Confederate service May 12 at Jackson.
The following is from: "Unveiling Ceremonies of Holmes County's Confederate Monument at Lexington, Mississippi December 1, 1908". Page 38 and 39 gives a list of Company A, and the following text.
"This Company was mustered into Confederate service March 15, 1862. Its principal battles were Iuka, Corinth, Vicksburg Siege, and Harrisburg, Miss. Was attached to Martin's Brigade at Iuka and Corinth, Hebert's Brigade at Vicksburg, and Mabry's at Harrisburg. The regiment carried into the fight at Harrisburg 279, rank and file, and only 44 escape being killed or wounded. every field and line officer was killed or wounded except Captain Green. From best information obtainable this Regiment had the largest per cent of loss in a single battle of any in the Confederate Army."
"Captain Keirn became Lieutenant Colonel of the Regiment, but was so severely wounded, never returned to duty. J. S. Hoskins became Captain and commanded until surrendered near Gainesville, Ala., in May, 1865. Lieutenant S. D. Gwin commanded a detachment of this Company in battle of Chickamauga, sustaining heavy loss."
We of the 38th would like to thank Mr. Ramon Tate for supplying us with the above information. It is thanks to folks like Mr. Tate that make this web sight possible so that we may all honor our Confederate ancestors who gave their all for their land, country, and the right of Self Government.
