8th Infantry Battalion was organized with six companies during the early
spring of 1862 at Savannah, Georgia. Some of the men were from Adairsville and
Thornburgh, and Gordon County. For a time the unit served in the Department of
South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida, then it was assigned to Gist's Brigade,
Army of Tennessee. After the operations in North Mississippi, it fought with the
army from Chickamauga
to Nashville and ended the
war in North Carolina. This battalion contained 232 men and 183 arms in
December, 1863, and was included in the surrender on April 26, 1865. The field
officers were Lieutenant Colonels Asahel Littlefield, Leroy Napier, Jr., J.T.
