Brief History [edit | edit source]
The organization of Brown's Horse Artillery started on 23rd September 1862 at Lexington, Kentucky, but was interrupted when the town was evacuated. "With condemned horses, patched-up stage-harness, and barely men enough to drive the guns, a battery-wagon and caisson were brought through safely to Knoxville, Tenn.
"The battery was divided on May 7, 1863; fist section going with Gen. Pegram to Monticello, Ky.; second section to Kingston, Tenn. The battery returned, and was reunited at Knoxville, Tenn., June 30, 1863." [1]
"Units of the Confederate States Army" by Joseph H. Crute, Jr. contains no history for this unit. [2]
