Lest We Forget Roster ©Ron Skellie 1999-2012





Roster 7th Regiment Mississippi Infantry

These company rosters were compiled to memorialize the service of as
many men as possible. The rosters are not to be considered chiseled in
stone because we have found many new names over the course of the
past ten years even after believing that we had a complete roster.
As more records surface, we will continue to update the roster. In some
cases because of transcription errors and other types of recording mistakes,
men who we cannot verify are listed in the roster. We also have listed as
many named Negro servants that accompanied these men since they too
were an integral part of the regiment.

Our whole purpose is to ensure that these men are not forgotten. Whether
the men actually left with the regiment or merely signed up and did not
muster or later joined another unit, we do not minimize their service.
Special note is made of men who were killed in action, were wounded,
or died as a result of illness. This latter group, those who died from illness
in many cases before the first battle were recognized by Lt. Job Foxworth
of Company D in his diary as follows:
Young Men Killed by Disease—Deserve no Less Credit and Remembrance
Foxworth fears for the fate of young men who are taken before they have
even fought a battle and declares: “It seems hard for a young man to be
removed from the field of his farm by the hand of disease, without a contest
with the enemy, but it is the mournful fate of many—of most—in our army.
Still they deserve no less credit and remembrance than if they had fell
while bravely contending for liberty”
Entries from William (Hadskey’s research, (WH) and Calvin Philips’ research,
(CP) and compiled lists from the CMR (Compiled Military Records) for
individual soldiers at the Mississippi Department of Archives and History
(MDAH) were used as the basis for the “Lest We Forget” Roster. To complete
the roster, these two lists were compared to the Dunbar Rowland Roster
(DR) of the 7th Mississippi Infantry located at the (MDAH). In addition,
individual original rosters from the (MDAH) and transcriptions resulted in
the addition of many names and corrections to many others. Individual
records held by families and documentation found in primary sources is
included. In many cases there are multiple listings of the same man due
to spelling variations. This roster is not the final roster because we
intend to update as our research of the
“Immortal Seventh Mississippi” continues.

KEY
Bold-Killed in Action (KIA) or died in service
(WIA) Wounded in Action
[from OR Supp. Vol. 33, letter collection, other primary source]
(NOTES)
* Not sure if 7th Regt. Miss. Inf. only listed in one source, or incomplete
or conflicting information
Italics- Letter Collection, Quotes
(D) Deserted-Many men were said to have been “absent without leave”,
but later returned or joined other units. Men listed as “deserted” actually
left the army or went to the enemy.
[In some instances men are listed more than once both in their company
and when listed in other companies in the regiment. (Officers and
non-commissioned officers are also listed in the alphabetical listing)]





“Franklin Rifles” Company A 7th Regiment Mississippi Infantry

There are at least two rosters that are transcribed and copied for
Company A.

There are some differences in spelling so we will show all forms of names.
Entries from William Hadskey’s research (WH) and Calvin Philips’ (CP)
research who both compiled lists from the CMR (Compiled Military Records)
for individual soldiers at the Mississippi Department of Archive and History
(MDAH) to complete their listings. These two rosters were compared to
the Dunbar Rowland Roster of the 7th Mississippi Infantry located at the
(MDAH). Individual records held by families and documentation found in
primary sources is also included.

"Jeff Davis Sharp Shooters" Company D 7th Regiment Mississippi Infantry





The “Captain Hamilton Mayson” Muster of August 1861 was used as the foundation for the complete roster of Company D. The muster indicated that most had enlisted between May 4 and July 30, 1861, in Columbia Mississippi. An additional roll divulged that this company mustered in Holmesville, Mississippi. Records of Marion County, Mississippi; Vol. IV; Compiled by E. Russ Williams, Jr. P.O. Box 1074, Bogalusa, Louisiana 70427. See Muster Rolls, Series L, Vol. 8 & 9, Regular Army of Tennessee, Mississippi Department of Archives and History, Jackson. Enlistment Period May 4 thru July 30, 1861. Using this roster as a foundation, names have been compared to the master roster of the 7th Mississippi compiled by Dunbar Rowland for the MDAH, William Hadskey’s roster (WH) prepared from the Compiled Military Records, and the Calvin Phillips (CP) records also compiled from the CMR as well as the OR Supplement and other research by (Ron Skellie). Many men in Company D and F were mentioned in the “Job Foxworth Diary” (JFDiary) and the page numbers are included in their entry.

"Franklin Beauregards" Company E 7th Regiment Mississippi Infantry

This roster has been compiled as a tribute to all the men who served in the "Franklin Beauregards" Co. E 7th Mississippi Infantry, C.S.A. Special tribute goes to my great great grandfather, Lt. Robert Cochran Bethea, M.D. whose story began my search for the regimental history of the “the immortal seventh” as they were referred by their Captain, Daniel H. Parker.

The roster is alphabetized from lists of members found on the roster of Company E located at the MDAH by Mrs. Lena Riley in the "John A. Cato Papers", and was transcribed with the assistance of Lena Riley, Chuck McMains, Debbie Hanson, Barbara Goode, Bob Crook, Shirley Meeter, Ed Godbold, Tony Miller, Ardeth Files, Bob Patterson, and Ron Skellie. Our goal as descendants was to get a complete and accurate roster for this unit of the 7th Regiment Mississippi Infantry of the "High Pressure Brigade".

The “Cato” roster was produced after Nov. 1, 1861 and lists the date of enlistment as May 4th (1861) Meadeville, MS. An additional original roster was located in 2007 By George Purvis at the archives for the May 4, 1861 roll. On April 1, 1999 a more complete copy was received from the archives. Several names had been deleted during the difficult task of copying this large document as creases obscured them. However, the missing names were added to the roll. All names that have been added were cross referenced with a complete listing of members of the 7th Mississippi compiled by Dunbar Rowland in 1915. In addition notes have been added based on the research of William (WH), Calvin Phillips (CP), and my fellow researchers.

There are instances where the Rowland spelling is different from the roster spelling. The alternate spelling will be in Parentheses ( ). The names will be listed in alphabetical order with their rank(s) and other units listed. Note: "Company E and H were (Temporarily) consolidated Dec. 26, 1862"

"Goode Rifles" Company G 7th Regiment Mississippi Infantry

The August 3, 1861 roster is the only intact roster we have located. According to William Hadskey “In Confederate pension rolls, many old men did not state they were in the 7th Mississippi, but said they were ‘in the regiment of Colonel Goode.’ The Colonel they served under was Elias J. Goode, the first captain of Company G” and the first Colonel of the 7th Mississippi Volunteers as well as the 7th Regiment Mississippi Infantry until after the battle of Shiloh and the reorganization of the regiment. Note: Col. Goode is listed as Enos J. and Elias J. Goode on the Rowland roster and at the MDAH, as Edward J. Goode-JFDiary, and Edmond J. Goode in census and burial records-RJS)

All names that have been added were cross referenced with a complete listing of members of the 7th Mississippi compiled by Dunbar Rowland in 1915. In addition notes have been added based on the research of William (WH), Calvin Phillips (CP), and my fellow researchers. There are instances where the Rowland spelling is different from the roster spelling or other research sources.

We now believe that he returned to service to watch out for Stephen Herrin. The loss of Capt. G.A. Robertson and John H. Cannon at Chickamauga may have been too much for him. There is a possibility that Frank Leonard was part of Co. G. Covington Sharpshooters in 7th Battn. who at the time, May 1862, were awaiting assignment to a regiment supposedly 27th Miss.

"Dahlgren Rifles" Company H 7th Regiment Mississippi Infantry

The large portion of the attached roster was copied from the History of Pike County. William Hadsky wrote, “Due to great losses by the train wreck and through disease, a large number of men who had been captured and paroled from Ft. Donelson were added to this company, but, as they were from Northern Mississippi, they were usually transferred to the First or Forty-First regiments. A few conscripts were also enlisted from other counties, particularly Winston County.” (WH) Many of the men of the 1st Mississippi were with the 7th Mississippi until after the Kentucky campaign in September of 1862. In the roster they are shown as from the 1st Mississippi or transferred to the 1st Mississippi.

The following is an alphabetical listing of the officers and men of Company H 7th Mississippi Infantry which has been compared to the 1915 roster of the 7th Regiment Mississippi Infantry by Dunbar Rowland, the research of Calvin Phillips (CP), William Hadskey (WH), Ron Skellie (RJS), and many others with connections to the 7th Mississippi.

"Covington Rifles" aka “Covington Rangers” Company I
7th Regiment Mississippi Infantry
“Covington Rifles” also called the “Covington Rangers” (Covington County) enlisted in 11 August 1861 at Bay St. Louis, MS. in the 7th Regiment Mississippi Volunteers. They were previously formed as Capt. Fairley’s Company and were probably enlisted as an independent Company in April of 1861. Many joined the company at Mt. Carmel, Covington County. Due to the large number of men of Scottish descent, they were sometimes called the “Scotch Company” according to William Hadskey. They were mustered into State service on September 11, 1861 as Company I, 7th Mississippi Infantry.
The names listed on the roster have been crossed referenced with the Rowland Roster, William Hadskey’s List (WH), and Calvin Phillips list (CP). There are some differences and will still require more detailed research in the MDAH and the National Archives. Note there was also a company G called “Covington Rangers” in the 7th Battalion Miss. Infantry.

"Quitman Rifles" Company K 7th Regiment Mississippi Infantry

The “Quitman Rifles”, [were] enlisted at Bunkley’s Ferry in Southeast Franklin County by the 43 year old Methodist minister, Newton Lawrence Huff on 28 August 1861. Huff was the beloved minister as diaries of soldiers in different attest. The soldiers would write if they were killed, they wanted Reverend Huff of Franklin County to preach their funerals. Being a good minister does not make a good commanding officer, therefore, he gracefully bowed out and went home and joined the militia. After the war he was elected sheriff and was killed by a criminal.” (WH) The Company was made up of men from mostly western Franklin County and Amite County. They were the last company to join the 7th Mississippi Volunteers at Pass Christian and Shieldsboro, MS. This company lost heavily in the Railroad accident at Ponchatoula, La. The names listed on the roster have been crossed referenced with the Rowland Roster (DR), William Hadskey’s List (WH) and Calvin Phillips list (CP).

Drummers
There were only two drummers mentioned in the F&S rosters:
1. Freeman, Hal [3rd Drummer, F&S 7th Mississippi] No company listed (This man: Freeman, William H. Co. A WIA Shiloh & Atlanta 7-22-64, in hospital 8-64 roll, surr. NC.) possibly, Hal Freeman, from Co. A, Franklin County fits the profile of a man who survived the war and surrendered in NC; however, we do not have proof that his middle name was Hal, his age at enlistment, or if he was a drummer. We do know that this Hal Freeman was 3rd Drummer and the likelihood that they are the same man is high; they are least likely to be related. Hal Freeman was listed as a drummer at Shieldsboro; company unknown [possibly Company A, E, K if he was related to the Freeman men from Franklin County and Amite who were in companies A and K since all were from Franklin County, and one man from Company C from Amite County. [See William H. Freeman, Co. A]
2. [b] Harrington, B. F. Co. F. 1st drummer at Shieldsboro, Sept. 1861 The one drummer listed from Co. F is B. F. Herrington or Harrington. Co. F was from Marion County, but we have no information as to his age, or if he surrendered in NC. He does not appear on those rosters at surrender.
3. No man listed as 2nd Drummer (F&S)
4. Whitton, Thomas 28, WIA at Chickamauga and Atlanta; captured at Nashville, TN. [See T. Whitton captured at Nashville, TN] (See also Whittom), [Family records indicate he was drummer in the 7th Miss. –Earleen Clayton; “His file contains one card showing his rank as "Bass Drum," another card shows he was assigned extra duty as "Drummer," another rank as "Musician." -George Martin]

This record is constantly being updated. Please send any new information regarding men on these rosters or men who may have been omitted to:
