Publisher's Synopsis
The Seventh Tennessee Infantry, Confederate States Army, was organized at Camp Trousdale, in Sumner county, May 25, 1861. The equipment of this regiment was different from that of any other from Tennessee, as it was armed with Mississippi rifles, which were retained for the first two years of the war; but on account of the difficulty of procuring suitable ammunition, these were displaced by the Springfield and Enfield rifles. The 7th Tennessee fought throughout the war in Virginia, surrendering at Appomattox. Companies Of The TN 7th Infantry Regiment Co. "A". Men from Alexandria, DeKalb County. Co. "B".
