L. Williamson's Arkansas Infantry Battalion. Originally called 1st Arkansas Mounted Volunteers, the C. S. War Department ordered its designation to be 3rd Cavalry on January 15, 1862. When the Army of Tennessee surrendered, few of its members were present. The 3rd Arkansas Cavalry was organized at Little Rock on June 10, 1861, as the 1st (Borland’s) Battalion Arkansas Cavalry. On July 27, 1861, the battalion was mustered into Confederate service for one year, and on July 29was reorganized as the 1st Regiment Arkansas Mounted Volunteers. On January 15, 1862, it was redesignated as the 3rd Regiment Arkansas Cavalry. It was reorganized at Corinth, Mississippi, on May 26, 1862, with the addition of two companies (I and K) from the recently-disbanded Williamson’s Battalion Arkansas Infantry. [1] |
