This unit was organized on 25 May 1861 in Paris, Lamar County, Texas. It is found in The History of Lamar County, by A. W. Neville, North Texas Publishing Co., 1937, pp. 116-117. A roster of the unit was also recorded in Lamar County Deed Book L, pp. 348-349. A copy of the original muster roll is at the Texas State Archives. The organization was characterized as a company of "light infantry and riflemen" and was assigned to the 9th Brigade of the Texas Militia. Many of these men later joined the 9th Texas Infantry, CSA.
