    1st. South Carolina Infantry, Company A "Gregg's Guards"

    1st. South Carolina Infantry, Gregg's Guards


    Volunteers needed to fight the yankee invader!
    look for 1st South Carolina Company A in the company too to volunteer!





    This regiment is sometimes referred to as Gregg's Regiment, although technically Col. Gregg was over a brigade, and after his death, command of the brigade went to Gen. McGowan.


    Rivers account lists D. B. Miller as the captain of this company when it was first formed about the 1st of February, 1861 and that the company was from Richland County. The company was evidently reorganized by about the 1st of August with men from Barnwell County. I have not located a roster of this first company.

    Company A was mustered into service for the war, at Richmond, Va., August 19, 1861, by Lieutenant Thos. T. Bryson, Mustering Officer.
