he first six companies of the Mississippi 7th Infantry Battalion assembled at Quitman, Clarke County, May 3, 1862, were mustered into the service of the Confederate States and organized by the election of Lieutenant-Colonel Terral and Major Welborn. In June the battalion was joined by Company G. The battalion was assigned to Hebert's Brigade, Department of Mississippi and East Louisiana, and was captured when Vicksburg fell. After the exchange the battalion then served in Mackall's and Sears' Brigade. Few were included in the surrender in May, 1865.
