The Forty-third was temporarily detached and served with Hoke’s Brigade at capture of Plymouth, 20 April, 1864. 6.

The Fifty- ninth (Fourth Cavalry) was also originally in this brigade, but was transferred in 1864 to Dearing’s and later to Rob- erts’ Brigade. 18. Roserts’ Brigade, consisting of the Fifty-ninth and Seventy-fifth Regiments (Fourth and Seventh Cavalry). The latter regiment was at first a battalion of nine companies styled Sixteenth Battalion, and retained that designation in official reports though raised by the addition of another com- pany in 1864 to a regiment, with a Colonel. From above it will be seen that adding the “Bethel” Reg- iment, which was not in any of the above brigades having served only six months, and the Sixty-ninth and Eightieth (Thomas’ Legion), which in 1864, served in the Valley of Virginia in Smith’s Brigade, North Carolina had fifty-nine regiments and two battalions (equal to another regiment) in the Army of Northern Virginia, besides seven batteries of artillery, Manly, Latham, Reilly, Graham, Cumming, Webb and Moore. During the battles around Richmond, 1862, Anderson’s and Garland’s North Carolina Brigades were in D. H. Hill’s Division; Branch’s and Pender’s Brigades in A. P. Hill’s Division; Ransom’s and Walker’s Brigades in Huger’s Di- vision; Daniel’s Brigade in Holmes’ Division. The other North Carolina regiments were at that time in mixed bri- gades with regiments from other States. Several of above brigades served from time to time in North Carolina and Clingman’s and Cooke’s were in Charles- ton and Savannah in 1863. In the Valley campaign of 1864, North Carolina was rep- resented by Cox’s and Grimes’ Brigades in Rodes’ Division, by Godwin’s and Johnston’s Brigades in Early’s Division, and Sixty-ninth and Eightieth Regiments in Smith’s Bri- gade. In the winter of 1864-5 the North Carolina brigades were thus assigned: First Corps (Jongstreet), none. Second Corps (Ewell’s), Cox’s and Grimes’ Brigades in
