Original Company

History

This regiment was organized at Camp Moore on August 13, 1861, with 857 men. Ordered to Kentucky, the regiment became part of the garrison at Columbus. On November 7, the men fought in the Battle of Belmont, Missouri; 12 were killed and 42 were wounded. The regiment moved to Island NO.10 after the evacuation of Columbus and remained there until March 17, 1862, when it went to fort Pillow. The regiment took 550 men into the Battle of Shiloh, April 6, and suffered heavily in a bayonet charge against an enemy artillery battery. Lieutenant John Cowley, who had lost his right arm at Belmont, lost his left arm in the battle. On May 9, the regiment participated in the Battle of Farmington, Mississippi; 12 of its men were killed, wounded, or missing. General Braxton Bragg ordered the regiment disbanded on August 19 because of its decline in numbers caused by battle casualties and illness. The men of Companies C, D, E, f, and G went into the 13th Louisiana Regiment; and those of Companies A, B, H, I, and K went into the 20th Louisiana Regiment. Some picked men were organized as part of the 14th Louisiana Battalion.
