CHAPTER XIII.
PATRIOTISM OF SHELBY AND MOULTRIE COUNTIES.
SEVENTH CAVALRY REGIMENT
This regiment was
organized in September, 1861, with William Pitt Kellogg, of
Fulton county, as its colonel, since made prominent by his election
to the United States senate. Shelby county was well
represented in this regiment, in four companies. Company H was
raised largely through Captain Milton L., Webster's efforts,
and it was almost entirely from this county. The 7th regiment
bore an honorable part in the many engagements in which it
participated in the late war (we regret there is no history of this
regiment preserved in the Adjutant-General's office), therefore our
sketch is necessarily brief. We append a roster of the
soldiers from Shelby county.
