It fought in Jackson's Valley Campaign and later was assigned to General John R. Jones' and then William Terry's Brigade, Army of Northern Virginia.

Nonetheless, it was involved in Early's Shenandoah Valley operations and the Appomattox Campaign.

The unit reported 17 casualties at Cross Keys and Port Republic, 62 at Cedar Mountain, 24 at Second Manassas, 7 at Fredericksburg (when it was in the rear), and 103 at Chancellorsville (after which Gen. J. R. Jones ceased field service).

The field officers were Colonels John A. Campbell (who resigned in October 1862 upon John R. Jones's transfer and promotion to brigadier general despite his lack of military experience), Robert H. Dungan, and Thomas S. Garnett; Lieutenant Colonel Oscar White; and Majors James C. Campbell, Wilson Faris, and D. Boston Stewart.
