*This company
subsequently became Company H. 18th Regi-
ment Texas Cavalry.
The 18th
(also known as Darnell's) Regiment Texas Cavalry was
accepted into the service of the Confederate States March 15,
1862, with eleven companies, and re-organized may 26, 1862, with
ten companies, Captain Witt's Company having become an inde-
pendent command which was subsequently assigned to the 34th
(Wells') Regiment Texas Cavalry as Company B. A part of this
regiment was captured at Arkansas Post, Ark. January 11, 1863,
and exchanged east of the Mississippi River in April and May,
1863, when it was consolidated with similar remnants of the 17th,
24th and 25th Regiments Texas Cavalry. This consolidation was
broken up in March, 1864, when these parts of the 17th and 18th
Regiments Texas Cavalry were united to form one field organi-
zation, but each appears to have been mustered separately.
About April 9, 1865, this portion of the regiment was consolidated
with the remnants of other regiments in Granbury's Texas Bri-
gade, and paroled at Greensboro, N. C. about May 1, 1865. Com-
pany H became an independent command about May, 1863, and
subsequently served as Company D. Morgan's Regiment Texas
Cavalry. The balance of the regiment, which was not captured
January 11, 1863, remained west of the Mississippi River and was
consolidated with similar remnants of other Texas regiments
about July 1, 1863, forming the 17th Consolidated Regiment Texas
Dismounted Cavalry.
