These were the officers of the 7th
Texas Cavalry from Trinity County, Texas who led Company E as it
started for the Rio Grande with Sibley's Brigade in the
Confederate Army's push to wrest control of the Western United
States from the Union Army in the Autumn of 1861. In time
the 7th Texas would turn to the eastern arena and
participate in many battles. In the East, in the heat and smoke
of fierce combat, it would emerge as one of the best mounted
regiments in the CSA, its Regimental Colonel promoted to the rank
of Brig. General. During the Civil War, many mounted
regiments which began as cavalry were often by command, unhorsed
and made into infantry. Not so the 7th. This regiment
entered the war horsed and ended the war horsed because of it's
exemplary performance in the field. The 7th Texas Cavalry,
Company E represented Trinity County with
distinction and courage. We the
descendants of these 7th Texas, Trinity County horsemen
are proud to remember them with honor, always.
