  "This company was organized by S. T. Player, Captain. The drill ground for the company was the level field near the present home of Mrs. Josie Wright. The company was armed with Enfield rifles and sent to Whitesfield, Effingham County, Georgia for training and later to Goldsboro, North Carolina, thence to Virginia, arriving in time  to take part in the battle of Seven Pines."

After serving in Georgia and North Carolina, the regiment moved to Virginia. Here it was assigned to General J.R. Anderson's and E.L. Thomas' Brigade, Army of Northern Virginia. The 49th took an active part in the campaigns of the army from Seven Pines to Cold Harbor, fought in the Petersburg trenches south of the James River, and was involved in the Appomattox operations. It reported 68 casualties at Second Manassas and 61 at Fredericksburg. The unit lost thirteen percent of the 280 at Chancellorsville and more than twenty-five percent of the 329 at Gettysburg.

Manning, Jonathan Rivers, and Wiley J. Williams; and Majors James B. Duggan, John A. Durham, and John H.
