Historical Sketch And Roster Of The Tennessee 1St Cavalry Regiment (Carter's)

The Tennessee 1st (Carter's) Cavalry Regiment was organized in November, 1862, using what was originally the 3rd (Brazelton's), later 14th (Carter's) Tennessee Cavalry Battalion. Brazelton's Battalion was also called the 2nd Battalion and the 5th Tennessee Cavalry Battalion. Some of its members were also raised behind enemy lines, and a few had served in Thomas' North Carolina Legion. The regiment fought in many of the smaller battles in the west, ending the war as a part of Vaughn's brigade in the Shenandoah Valley as a part of Early's Valley Campaign. The regiment was not surrendered, but disbanded upon hearing of Lee's surrender.
